Portable 12-Bit Oscilloscopes Bring Up to 250 MHz of Bandwidth
Rigol Technologies introduced a series of ultra-portable high-resolution oscilloscopes that bring to the table the 12-bit resolution with low noise for enhanced signal fidelity and analysis of its other offerings.
The DHO900 series of digital oscilloscopes feature 125 to 250 MHz of bandwidth with four channels that support a 1.25-Gsample/s rate, a waveform capture rate of 1,000,000 waveforms per second, and 50 Mpoints of memory standard. Complementing it, the DHO800 family offers 70- to 100-MHz bandwidths also with four channels that feature the same 1.25 Gsample/s rate and 1,000,000 waveforms per second capture rate. The other key difference is the 25 Mpoints of memory, said Rigol.
The new oscilloscopes have greater flexibility due to their compact design, which is useful for handheld testing out in the field. They have 12-bit measurement resolution and a seven-inch intuitive touchscreen display, and they support USB Type-C power.
The instruments are powered by the company’s latest UltraVision platform with a custom analog front-end chipset, which supports a significantly lower front-end noise floor. The higher resolution and lower noise mean smaller signal artifacts can be measured faster and more accurately.
Rigol’s UltraAcquire Burst Capture technology enables users to capture signals at a faster rate and then visualize them in different display modes, including density, waterfall, perspective, and mosaic.
