The Rigol MSO5072 is a 70 MHz mixed-signal oscilloscope that combines analog and digital signal analysis in a single instrument. With 2 analog channels, 16 digital channels, and 8 GSa/s real-time sampling, it delivers waveform capture rates exceeding 500,000 wfms/s and 100 Mpts memory depth for extended signal recording. The instrument integrates seven independent tools—digital oscilloscope, logic analyzer, spectrum analyzer, arbitrary waveform generator, digital voltmeter, frequency counter, and protocol analyzer—eliminating the need for multiple benchtop instruments.
