Agilent/Keysight 54200A

The Agilent/Keysight 54200A is a 2-channel digitizing oscilloscope engineered for precision waveform capture and analysis in laboratory and professional environments. Operating at 50 MHz bandwidth with 200 MSa/s real-time sampling and 1 kbyte of acquisition memory per channel, the instrument delivers sequential digitization at equal time increments for detailed signal characterization. Advanced trigger capabilities - including TTL and ECL preset functions - combined with high-quality ADC performance distinguish this platform for demanding measurement applications.
