Agilent/Keysight DSO5032A

The Agilent/Keysight DSO5032A is a 300 MHz, 2-channel digital storage oscilloscope engineered for signal analysis across design, verification, and troubleshooting workflows. Built on the 5000 series platform, it delivers up to 2 GSa/s sampling with MegaZoom III technology—a architecture that pairs deep memory, high waveform capture rates, and fast processing to eliminate acquisition dead time. The instrument captures up to 100,000 waveforms per second and provides 12-bit vertical resolution in high-resolution mode, particularly effective at time base settings exceeding 10 μs/div.

– Key Features

• MegaZoom III Technology: Combines fast sampling, deep memory, and high update rates to reduce dead time and improve signal visibility during rapid events.
• Segmented Memory: Optimizes capture of non-contiguous data—serial buses, laser pulses, radar bursts—with overlay and rapid segment navigation.
• Automatic Measurements: 23 parametric measurements; up to four simultaneous with five statistics (min, mean, standard deviation, max, count).
• Waveform Math: Multiply, subtract, FFT, integrate, differentiate.
• Autoscale: Auto-configures horizontal, vertical, and trigger settings.
• Remote Control: Full web browser and standard remote access.
• Synchronization: Trig Out port for instrument coordination; Scope View enables time-correlated measurements with Agilent 1680/90 or 16800/900 logic analyzers via LAN.
