The LeCroy 44XS-A is a 4-channel digital oscilloscope delivering 400 MHz bandwidth and up to 5 GS/s interleaved sampling for precise signal acquisition and analysis. Engineered for electronics engineers and technicians, this instrument combines high-resolution waveform capture with advanced triggering and mathematical analysis capabilities. The 10.4″ color touchscreen display, coupled with WaveStream™ fast viewing mode, renders signals with intensity grading to reveal jitter and signal anomalies. Vertical resolution of 8-bit and configurable record lengths up to 10 Mpts/channel enable detailed characterization of complex signals across standard 1 MΩ and 50 Ω input impedances. The 44XS-A executes edge, glitch, width, logic pattern, and TV triggering modes, including advanced SMART Trigger functions for selective event capture. Comprehensive waveform math—spanning sum, difference, product, FFT analysis, and enhanced resolution to 11-bit—supports rapid signal troubleshooting. Integrated measurement functions quantify delay, frequency, rise time, duty cycle, phase, and 17 additional parameters. WaveScan search and find capability accelerates anomaly detection across long acquisitions.
