The Rohde & Schwarz RTO2012 is a 1 GHz digital oscilloscope engineered for high-performance signal analysis across two analog channels. It delivers up to 1 million waveforms per second with 10 GS/s sampling rate and up to 100 Mpts memory depth, enabling capture and detailed examination of complex intermittent signal behaviors. The instrument combines a high-resolution touchscreen interface with advanced triggering capabilities, up to 16-bit vertical resolution, and optional mixed-signal functionality.
