The Teledyne LeCroy LABMASTER 10-36ZI is a modular, high-performance oscilloscope delivering 36 GHz bandwidth and 80 GS/s sampling across 4 analog channels per acquisition module. Built around a Master Control Module housing the CPU, display, and ChannelSync clock, the system scales to 80 channels through multiple acquisition modules. Purpose-built for high-speed signal characterization in communications, computing, aerospace, and research environments where signal integrity is critical.
