The LeCroy WaveRunner LT224 is a 200 MHz, 4-channel digital storage oscilloscope engineered for signal acquisition, measurement, and analysis across diverse laboratory and field applications. This instrument delivers simultaneous 4-channel capture at 200 MS/s per channel, with selectable 25 MHz bandwidth limiting per channel and repetitive sampling up to 10 GS/s. The 8.4-inch color TFT-LCD display (640×480 VGA) renders waveforms with analog and color-graded persistence modes for detailed signal investigation.
