The Keysight MSOS054A is a high-definition mixed-signal oscilloscope designed for synchronous capture and analysis of analog and digital signals in complex embedded systems. It combines 4 analog channels with 16 digital channels, delivering 500 MHz baseline bandwidth expandable to 8 GHz, maximum sample rates of 20 GSa/s across 2 channels or 10 GSa/s across all 4 channels, and memory depths up to 200 Mpts per channel. The instrument achieves 10-bit native vertical resolution with up to 16 bits available through high-resolution mode, supported by a low-noise front end and system ENOB of 8.1 bits at full bandwidth.
