The LeCroy 204Xi / Waverunner 204Xi is a 2 GHz digital oscilloscope built for signal analysis, troubleshooting, and system validation across engineering disciplines. This four-channel instrument delivers 5 GS/s real-time sampling per channel—or 10 GS/s in interleaved mode—with up to 10 Mpts/channel standard memory. Its 8-bit vertical resolution expands to 11 bits with Enhanced Resolution (ERES), while a 225 ps rise time and 1 mV/div to 10 V/div sensitivity span fine detail to large-signal measurements. The large color touch screen and compact form factor support both lab and field deployment.
