Teledyne LeCroy WaveRunner 9254 – 2.5GHz, 20 GS/s, 4 Channel Oscilloscope

The Teledyne LeCroy WaveRunner 9254 is a 4-channel digital oscilloscope delivering 2.5 GHz analog bandwidth and 20 GS/s sample rate for signal integrity, embedded systems, and high-speed serial analysis. The instrument features a 15.4-inch capacitive touch screen with MAUI OneTouch interface, 16 Mpts acquisition memory per channel, and vertical resolution to 11 bits. Advanced triggering—including edge, pattern, width, glitch, dropout, and cascade modes—combined with SDAIII serial analysis tools supporting 29 standards makes this platform suitable for automotive Ethernet validation, jitter decomposition, and eye diagram characterization.
