In summary, the Rohde & Schwarz RTB-BNDL is a four-channel 300 MHz bundle with full application package (I²C/SPI, UART, CAN/LIN, Bode plot) within the R&S RTB 2 Series family. It pairs a 10-bit ADC with a 10.1" capacitive touch interface and delivers up to 2.5 Gsample/s interleaved sampling, 10 Msample standard memory per channel, and 1 mV/div input sensitivity across the full analog bandwidth — a combination aimed at engineers who want precise vertical resolution without sacrificing the responsive touchscreen workflow of a modern bench scope.

What is the RTB-BNDL used for?

The RTB-BNDL is used for hardware design, education, production test, and general-purpose bench debug. Typical tasks include power-rail integrity checks, switching-loss analysis, serial-bus debug (I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN with the corresponding decode options), frequency-response measurements via the Bode-plot option, and mask-based production go/no-go testing.

How does the 10-bit ADC change the measurement?

A 10-bit converter resolves 1024 vertical levels — four times the granularity of a conventional 8-bit scope. With high-resolution decimation engaged, effective resolution rises to 16 bit, which is particularly useful for low-amplitude signals riding on a DC offset (ripple on a regulator output, sensor mV-level swings, or noise-floor characterization on a power rail).

Factual grounding

The RTB-BNDL provides 300 MHz of analog bandwidth (–3 dB), 4 analog input channels at 1 MΩ ± 2 % (9 pF ± 2 pF) input impedance, an input sensitivity range of 1 mV/div to 5 V/div, and a maximum input voltage of 300 V (RMS) (400 V peak), derating at 20 dB/decade to 5 V (RMS) above 250 kHz. Timebase ranges from 1 ns/div to 500 s/div with ±2.5 ppm accuracy after delivery/calibration at +23 °C. Trigger types include edge, width, video, pattern, runt, rise/fall time, serial bus, timeout, and line. The waveform acquisition rate reaches up to 50,000 waveforms/s in dot display mode.

Industry alignment

The base unit is engineered against IEC 61010-1, EN 61010-1, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1-04, and UL 61010-1 safety standards, and certified to VDE and CCSAUS. EMC compliance follows CISPR 11 / EN 55011 group 1 class A and IEC/EN 61326-1 table 2 industrial-environment immunity requirements. The recommended calibration interval is 1 year. Rohde & Schwarz is a privately held, family-owned company headquartered in Munich, Germany, with an installed base trusted in defense, aerospace, telecom, broadcast, and demanding RF-adjacent labs across Europe and globally.

What sets the RTB 2 Series apart

• Built-in arbitrary waveform generator (RTB-B6) standard — sine to 25 MHz, arbitrary playback to 10 MHz, 14-bit resolution, AM/FM/ASK/FSK modulation, and sweep/burst modes
• 4-bit pattern generator standard — bus signal source for SPI, I²C, UART, CAN, LIN at up to 1 Mbit/s, plus a programmable counter to 25 MHz
• History & segmented memory (RTB-K15) standard — up to 13,107 segments and continuous fast-segment recording with <2.5 µs blind time
• Digital voltmeter and 6-digit frequency counter integrated — eliminates a separate DMM/counter for many bench tasks
• Search across edge, width, peak, rise/fall, runt, data-to-clock, pattern, and protocol events with on-screen markers and result tables
• Up to 5 math waveforms, FFT with five window functions, four reference signals, and pass/fail mask testing

Accessories Supplied

RTB-BNDL is delivered as a serialized package: R&S RTB2004 base unit + RTB-B243 (300 MHz bandwidth upgrade) + RTB2-PK1 application bundle (I²C/SPI, UART/RS-232/422/485, CAN/LIN, and frequency response analysis options).

Product Core & Specifications

The RTB-BNDL is built around the same 300 MHz, 10-bit acquisition platform that defines the R&S RTB 2 Series. Bandwidth is set in the factory or upgraded later via keycode, and the same platform supports an optional 16-channel logic probe set (RTB2-B1) and an application-software bundle (I²C/SPI, UART/RS-232/422/485, CAN/LIN, and frequency-response analysis) without changing the underlying hardware. The result is a single chassis that scales from 300 MHz 4-channel DSO work up to a mixed-signal embedded-debug bench with serial decode and Bode-plot analysis.
