Product type
A mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO) is an advanced type of oscilloscope that can capture and analyze both analog and digital signals simultaneously. It typically features multiple channels for input, allowing users to visualize complex waveforms and interactions between different signal types. MSOs are constructed with high-speed analog-to-digital converters and sophisticated triggering capabilities to ensure accurate signal representation.
| Bandwidth | Up to 1 GHz |
| Sample Rate | Up to 5 GS/s |
| Channels | 2 to 8 channels |
| Memory Depth | Up to 100 Mpts |
| Display | Color LCD with various sizes |
| Triggering Modes | Edge, Pulse, and Serial Triggering |
When selecting a mixed signal oscilloscope, consider the required bandwidth and sample rate based on the signals you will be analyzing. Ensure that the number of channels meets your testing needs, especially if you plan to observe multiple signals simultaneously. Additionally, inquire about memory depth for longer captures and look for specific triggering capabilities that suit your application. Certifications and compliance with industry standards may also be important depending on your use case.
