Rigol DS1202Z-E – Digital Oscilloscope

The Rigol DS1202Z-E is a 200 MHz, 2-channel digital storage oscilloscope engineered for design, debugging, and educational applications. It delivers 1 GSa/s real-time sampling (single channel) with up to 24 Mpts memory depth, enabling capture of complex transient phenomena and sustained waveform analysis. The instrument combines high acquisition speed—up to 30,000 waveforms/s—with hardware recording capability supporting up to 60,000 frames, making it well-suited for embedded systems development and signal integrity verification.
