Agilent/Keysight DSO6102A

The Agilent/Keysight DSO6102A is a 1 GHz, two-channel digital storage oscilloscope engineered for debugging complex analog, digital, and serial designs. It combines 4 GSa/s interleaved sampling, up to 8 Mpts optional memory, and MegaZoom III technology to deliver responsive waveform acquisition with minimal dead time. The 6.3-inch XGA display with 256 intensity levels provides superior signal visibility, while the 100,000 waveform-per-second update rate captures infrequent events and transient details that slower instruments miss.
