The Rigol MSO1104Z is a 100 MHz mixed-signal oscilloscope built for embedded system development, signal integrity testing, and power supply design. It captures both analog and digital signals simultaneously, delivering up to 30,000 waveforms per second with deep memory and real-time analysis capabilities. The instrument combines four analog channels with 16 digital channels, making it suitable for complex system-level troubleshooting and protocol verification.

– Key Features
UltraVision technology enables high-speed waveform acquisition and detailed signal visualization across both analog and digital domains. Analog channels support multiple logic levels with selectable input impedance and coupling options. Digital channels feature easy grouping and labeling with dedicated triggering and decoding capabilities.
Serial bus analysis is available as an option, including support for RS232, I2C, and SPI protocols. Advanced triggering modes—such as Window, Nth Edge, Delay, Timeout, and Runt—enable detection of specific signal conditions. Optional real-time waveform record and replay functionality captures up to 60,000 frames for post-analysis review.
A built-in 2-channel, 25 MHz signal source is available as an integrated option for stimulus and verification tasks.
– Typical Applications
• Embedded system debugging and validation
• Signal integrity and power integrity measurements
• Serial protocol analysis (RS232, I2C, SPI)
• Digital and analog circuit characterization
• Timing and synchronization verification
– Compatibility & Integration
Connectivity includes LAN (LXI), USB Host and Device ports, and AUX input. Optional USB-GPIB interface enables remote control and integration into automated test systems. Optional deep memory expansion (MEM-DS1000Z) upgrades storage to 24 Mpts. The MSO1104Z KIT provides direct replacement capability for discontinued MSO1104Z models.
