The Keysight MSOX6004A is a 1 GHz mixed-signal oscilloscope integrating analog capture, 16 digital channels, and optional serial protocol analysis in a single instrument. Built on the InfiniiVision 6000 X-Series platform, it delivers 20 GSa/s maximum sample rate (half channels) and up to 4 Mpts memory depth, supported by waveform update rates exceeding 450,000 waveforms per second. The 12.1-inch capacitive multi-touch display with gesture controls and embedded OS interface—including voice commands in 14 languages—streamlines signal acquisition and analysis workflows.
Engineers deploying this oscilloscope gain access to seven integrated instruments: oscilloscope, mixed-signal analyzer, optional waveform generator, Bode plot analysis, 3-digit DVM, and 10-digit counter. Advanced triggering includes Zone Touch Trigger, edge, pulse width, logic, sequence, and holdoff modes. Signal integrity work benefits from histogram and color-grade visualization, enhanced color FFT, and optional jitter and real-time eye diagram analysis. Bandwidth upgrades extend the base 1 GHz specification to 2.5 GHz, 4.0 GHz, or 6.0 GHz via license activation.
