Data Sheet
Isolated-channel technology is specified to 1000 VRMS maximum float voltage.
Four isolated input channels easily handle any type of mixed signal inputs.
Portable Performance for Challenging
Environments
With 4 isolated channels and up to 7 hours of battery life, the lightweight
THS3000 Handheld Oscilloscope Series enables you to safely make
floating or differential measurements on your bench or in the field. Now
you can tackle tough environments with the performance you expect from
Tektronix – safely and affordably.
Accurately Measure Your Signals
With up to 200 MHz bandwidth, 4 channels, and 5 GS/s maximum sample
rate, no other oscilloscope offers as much bandwidth and sample rate in a
portable handheld form factor. The THS3000 Handheld Oscilloscope Series
has 10,000 points record length per channel, enabling you to capture more
signal information at higher sample rates to clearly see signal details. For
applications where it is important to measure slow-changing signals over
long time periods, the THS3000 Series offers Roll mode that extends the
record length to 30,000 points of signal information.
Safely Make Floating and Differential
Measurements
Making accurate and safe measurements on power electronics, power
semiconductors, and other electronics applications can be challenging
when the signal reference is floating and not referenced to earth ground.
When your signal ranges from low voltage to high voltage (kV) or you
must use probing techniques that can potentially create ground loops, the
problem is compounded.
To enable floating measurements, the THS3000 Series is architecturally
different than most other oscilloscopes. All input channels are fully isolated

from the main chassis and from each other. Additionally the power adapter
and USB interface are fully isolated to ensure safe measurements and
eliminate the risk of unintentional grounding or accidental short circuits.
When configured with the proper probes you can be assured you’ll be able
to make quick, safe, and accurate measurements.

*1 Passive probe reference leads have no attenuation so any working voltage or overvoltage transients pass
straight through to the scope reference. Thus, a passive probe reference float rating can never exceed the
scope reference float rating.
