The Agilent/Keysight 54602A is a 150 MHz, four-channel digital oscilloscope combining analog-style front-panel operation with digital measurement capabilities. Built around a 7-inch raster CRT display with real-time vector rendering, this instrument delivers 20 MSa/s maximum sample rate and up to 12-bit vertical resolution in high-resolution mode. It addresses mixed-signal design, general troubleshooting, and serial protocol analysis across channels with differing bandwidth and sensitivity specifications.
