The Tektronix CSA803 is a digital sampling oscilloscope that takes two 11800 series plug-in sampling modules.
The two left plug-in slots are supplying DC only and are supposed to be used for optical to electrical converters like the SD-48.
From the specifications of the CSA803C and the 11801C it seems that they are identical, except for omitting the two left plug-ins and adding the trigger ×10 prescaler function in the CSA803.
Key Specifications
| Vertical Resolution | 8 bits - 25 points/div |
|---|---|
| Input Sensitivity | 2 to 255 mV/div in 1 mV/div steps |
| Record Duration | 10 ps to 50 ms |
| Record Length | 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 5120 samples |
| Sample Rate | up to 200 kHz |
| Jitter | 1.1 ps RMS + 4 ppm of position (typical) |
| Maximum Trigger Input | 1 Vp-p direct, 2.5 Vp-p prescaler |
| Trigger Sensitivity Direct | 50 mVp-p, DC − 4 GHz typical; 100 mV DC − 2.5 GHz (CSA803), DC − 3GHz (CSA803A&C) |
| Trigger Sensitivity Prescaler CSA803 & CSA803A | < 600 mVp-pV for 2-8 GHz typical; < 2 Vp-pV for 8-10 GHz |
| Trigger Sensitivity Prescaler CSA803C | < 800 mVp-pV for 2-8 GHz; < 1 Vp-pV for 10-12.5 GHz typical |
