The Keysight/Agilent/HP 54100D is a 2-channel digitizing oscilloscope engineered for high-speed signal acquisition and timing analysis in analog and digital design environments. It delivers up to 1 GHz bandwidth with configurable input pods, 40 MSa/s base digitizing rate scaling to 400 MSa/s per channel, and 10-bit vertical resolution with averaging. Advanced triggering—including edge, logical pattern, and time-delayed modes—enables capture of complex transient events. The instrument’s 10 ps time-base resolution and 0.002% accuracy support precision measurements of critical timing parameters in high-speed circuitry.
