Overview
About MDO-2000A
The GW Instek MDO-2000A is a mixed-domain oscilloscope that integrates a full spectrum analyzer alongside time-domain oscilloscope channels in a single instrument. Available in 100 MHz, 200 MHz, and 300 MHz bandwidth options with 2 or 4 analog channels, the MDO-2000A captures time-domain waveforms and frequency-domain spectra simultaneously, enabling engineers to correlate time and frequency events during EMI debugging, RF circuit validation, and switching power supply analysis.
The built-in spectrum analyzer covers DC to 1 GHz, providing frequency-domain visibility without requiring a separate bench instrument. This is particularly valuable for embedded systems work where clock harmonics, switching noise, and unintentional RF emissions need to be identified and correlated with specific circuit activity on the time-domain channels.

A dual-channel 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator, serial bus decoding (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN), and VPO (Visual Persistence Oscilloscope) waveform technology with 120,000 wfm/s update rate round out the MDO-2000A’s capabilities. The instrument is well suited for R&D engineers and test labs that work across time and frequency domains, debugging switching converters, characterizing clock jitter, or identifying EMI sources, without dedicating bench space and budget to separate oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer instruments. GSAS Micro Systems provides the MDO-2000A with demonstration support, bandwidth selection guidance, and after-sales service across India.

GW Instek Insights
Emulating Processor Power for Thermal Testing: Why Constant Power
A heat sink or a cold plate is qualified against a watt figure, not a volt figure. This application note explains why a thermal load is driven in constant-power mode, how the bench is built for air and for liquid cooling, and what to confirm before you buy.
CRPS and Rack Power Supply Testing: The Six Tests That Matter
A CRPS module has to hold up under an unbalanced grid, a 0 to 100 percent load step, a surge on the line and a redundancy handover. This application note sets out the six tests, and the one source capability that makes a long feeder reproducible on the bench.
GPU Power Board Testing: DC Input Verification Before Integration
A GPU power delivery board is cheap to reject on a bench and expensive to find in an assembled server. This application note covers the programmable DC input test that screens the board, and the same test applied to incoming server systems.
