The newly-launched Ultra-Low Cost Oscilloscope Series from Keysight Technologies is now being shipped by Farnell element14. The range has 50 to 100 MHz models delivering professional-level functionality, industry-leading software analysis and 6-in-1 instrument integration, giving users even more value for money and saving valuable bench space.

The Keysight’s InfiniiVision 1000 X-Series oscilloscopes has been developed for price conscious electronic design engineers, students and hobbyists, offerings more features and an enhanced performance when compared with the Keysight 1000 series.

The 1000 X-Series uses Keysight’s MegaZoom IV custom ASIC technology which enables a high 50,000 waveforms per second update rate. This makes it easier to see random and infrequent glitches and anomalies that similarly-priced oscilloscopes might miss.

The 1000 X-Series also has a high sampling rate of up to 2 GSa/s and comes standard with two probes. The oscilloscopes use segmented memory capability to maximize memory depth while helping the scope test faster.

In addition to being an oscilloscope, the 1000 X-Series is also a serial protocol analyser, digital voltmeter and frequency counter—and the EDUX1002G and DSOX1102G models include a frequency response analyser and WaveGen function generator.

Bode plot fundamentals are easy to teach with the built in WaveGen and frequency response analysis.

The 1000 X-Series provides professional-quality measurement and software analysis capability. The scope features 24 typical oscilloscope measurements to quickly analyse signals and determine signal parameters.

Additional signal analysis is provided by the gated FFT function, which allows users to correlate time and frequency domain phenomenon on a single screen. And mask limit testing is also available to help users easily detect signal errors.

The 1000 X-Series supports decoding and analysis of a wide range of popular embedded and automotive serial bus applications, including I2C, SPI, UART/RS232, CAN and LIN.
