Oscilloscope Touts Speed, Precision, and Portability
Presented as the most compact 8-channel oscilloscope with mixed-signal capability, generator, and a large (11.6 inches) display, the R&S MXO 3 Series puts a lot of functionality in a small package. Leveraging next-generation MXO technology, the compact oscilloscopes deliver fast and precise measurements. The MXO tech enables developers to see more signal detail with an acquisition rate of up to 4.5 million waveforms/s and a real-time signal capture of up to 99%.
The oscilloscopes feature 12-bit ADC resolution at all sample rates, an enhanced 18-bit HD mode, advanced digital triggering, and 125 Mpoints of standard memory. The full HD display integrates seamlessly into any setup with just a 5U rack height across all models.
Other features include in-house ASICs, front-end technology supporting signal integrity, an 18-bit architecture with HD mode for high resolution, digital triggers for sensitive event isolation, and an advanced user interface and front panel to streamline workflows. The oscilloscopes also offer an update rate of up to 4.5 million acquisitions per second.
In this edition of Inside Electronics, Noha Ibrahim, Product Manager at Rohde & Schwarz, delves into the details of the MXO 3 Series.
