Eight-Channel Oscilloscope Detects 18 Million Waveforms/s
According to Rohde & Schwarz, the MXO 5 is the first eight-channel oscilloscope to detect 4.5 million acquisitions and 18 million waveforms per second across multiple channels.
Rohde & Schwarz’sMXO 5 is presented as the first eight-channel oscilloscope to detect 4.5 million acquisitions/s and 18 million waveforms/s across multiple channels. It's also able to show more of a signal’s activity than legacy solutions in both time and frequency domains.
The bandwidth of the four-channel version spans from 350 MHz to 2 GHz, while the eight-channel model ranges from 100 MHz to 2 GHz. Its system architecture includes an 18-bit vertical resolution/12-bit ADC, the deepest-in-class standard memory at 500 Mpoints, and maintains a simultaneous spectrum acquisition rate of 45,000 FFTs/s.
