Tektronix redefines automated test with the MP5000 Series modular precision test system

04/06/2026

Tektronix unveiled the MP5000 Series modular precision test system, a transformative solution that sets the pace for the future of automated test. Built on the principle of modularity, it allows engineers to combine precision source measure units (SMUs) and programmable power supply units (PSUs) within a compact 1U mainframe—delivering the adaptability and scalability modern validation and production workflows demand.

What sets the MP5000 Series apart

Every detail of the MP5000 Series was designed to help engineers do more with less—less rack space, less downtime, less complexity. Key advantages include:

• Future-ready modularity – reconfigure in minutes to meet changing needs by mixing SMUs and PSUs within the mainframe
• High density, compact design – scale up to 6 channels per 1U chassis and connect up to 32 mainframes for parallel, multi-site testing
• Performance without limits – SMU modules with 100 fA resolution and 1 MSa/s digitization for high-speed capture; PSU modules deliver up to 50 W per channel with bipolar output and advanced protection
• Automation built in – a test script processor (TSP) eliminates PC-instrument latency with sub-microsecond synchronization across racks; integrates with Python, LabVIEW, and IVI drivers
• Maximum uptime – module-only calibration, independent slot power control, and intuitive web and touch interfaces keep systems running with less interruption
