The Lecroy 9370C is a high-performance digital storage oscilloscope designed for signal analysis in demanding technical environments. With 1 GHz bandwidth and 2 GS/s maximum sample rate, it captures and analyzes complex, high-speed waveforms with precision. The instrument supports long acquisition memories up to 8 million sample points, enabling detailed examination of extended or intermittent signal events. Its SMART Trigger™ system includes glitch, pattern, interval, exclusion, and TV trigger modes, facilitating isolation of specific signal anomalies. Coupled with advanced waveform math and analysis functions, the 9370C provides engineers and system integrators a comprehensive toolset for signal integrity, digital design, and troubleshooting applications.
