The Rigol DS8204-R is a 4-channel digital oscilloscope delivering 2 GHz bandwidth and 10 GSa/s real-time sampling for advanced signal analysis and debugging. Built on the Phoenix chipset and UltraVision II platform, this instrument captures waveforms at over 600,000 frames per second with up to 500 Mpts memory depth. Its compact 1U half-rack form factor accommodates both benchtop and rack-mount deployment.
