Agilent/Keysight MSOX2012A

The Keysight MSOX2012A is a 100 MHz mixed-signal oscilloscope combining 2 analog channels with 8 digital channels for simultaneous acquisition and analysis in mixed-signal environments. Built on MegaZoom IV custom ASIC technology, it delivers up to 500,000 waveforms per second and captures signal sequences up to 1 Mpts at sample rates reaching 2 GSa/s, making it ideal for detailed transient analysis and rare-event detection. The 8.5-inch WVGA display (800 × 480 pixels) provides twice the viewing area and five times the resolution of QVGA alternatives, enabling clear visualization of complex waveforms across multiple signal domains.
