Agilent / Keysight DSOX2012A Oscilloscope: 100 MHz, 2 Analog Channels

The Keysight DSOX2012A is a 100 MHz, 2-channel digital storage oscilloscope engineered for electronic testing, troubleshooting, and design verification across diverse laboratory and field environments. The instrument delivers a 1 GSa/s sampling rate per channel with 1 Mpts memory depth and maintains waveform update rates up to 200,000 waveforms per second via MegaZoom IV technology, enabling responsive signal capture even with deep memory enabled. An 8.5-inch WVGA color display (800 x 480 pixels) provides clear signal visualization with 8-bit vertical resolution.
