The LeCroy 7200A is a high-performance digital oscilloscope designed for advanced waveform analysis and signal integrity characterization. Part of the WavePro 7000A series, it delivers up to 3 GHz bandwidth with dual input impedance paths (50 Ohm and 1 MOhm) and supports four-channel acquisition at 10 GS/s across all channels, scaling to 20 GS/s maximum single-shot sample rate when using two or fewer channels. The instrument integrates over 80 jitter and timing measurements with a 1 ps jitter noise floor, making it ideal for engineers performing precision timing analysis, signal integrity assessment, and complex high-speed signal characterization.
