Agilent/Keysight MSOX3102A

The Keysight MSOX3102A is a 1 GHz mixed-signal oscilloscope combining 2 analog channels with 16 digital channels for embedded system design, signal debugging, and protocol analysis. It delivers 5 GSa/s sample rate (half-channel interleaved) or 2.5 GSa/s across all channels, with up to 4 Mpts optional memory depth and waveform update rates exceeding 1,000,000 wfms/s. The instrument integrates oscilloscope, logic analyzer, function/arbitrary waveform generator, frequency counter, and voltmeter capabilities into a single platform.
