Manuals – Specifications – Links – Pictures

The Tektronix 2440 is a two-channel 300 MHz digital sampling oscilloscope from the late 1980s. The maximum sample rate is 500 megasamples per second, per channel.

• Features:
  
• 500 MS/s Digitizing
• 300MHz Bandwidth
• 2 ns Glitch Capture
• Autoprobe Function With P6137 Probe
• 300MHz X-Y Bandwidth At Probe Tip
• Automatic Measurements
• Extensive Triggering Capabilities
• Printer/Plotter Output
• On-screen HELP Text Describing Every Front-Panel Control

WARNING:
Operation of the 2440 (and 2432 and 2430): A/D-converter and CCD hybrids may suffer irreparable damage within a few minutes if operated out of the metal enclosure without extra cooling.
