Scope with "little processing power” that has real-time digital filters in math, unlike the “more powerful” SDS2000x+ which does not have them due to lack of processing power.
Who mentioned SDS2000x+ ?
I was comparing how R&S RTB2000 is quieter than RTM3000 in a similar case, and gave a data point how also with other manufacturers, for example Siglent, it is
all about power density: If you stick more power in same case it is going to be hotter and more air evacuation is needed.
And, yes, RTB2000 has very limited processing power. It also have only 10 MPts of memory per channels, measurements work from decimated data sub buffer and FFT is only 128kPts.
It is literally simplest scope R&S makes, if we exclude old inherited Hameg 1000 series.
And I was praising R&S product: very quiet, very good low power design, good thermal design, a winner... All compliments, not a single bad word.
Fact that it is literally 2nd from the bottom product in R&S scope gamut is just a fact. And instead of R&S making cheap crap, they chose to make product that is
relatively simple but good quality.
And it being simple is not even a bad thing. No need to have complexity if you don't need it. For some use scenarios simple is a plus, not a minus.
And price vise, if you are going to compare, fair is to compare with other scopes price for price... Fully loaded RTB2000 (full bundle) is 3600 € scope...
Best,
