Four-channel DSOs

The latest series of 4-channel Rigol oscilloscopes is available from Emona Instruments.

The DS1000B series provides three models, from 60 to 200 MHz bandwidth, four channels, up to 2 GS/s sample rate and 16 K memory. The series also incorporates an ASIC front end which replaces all traditional mechanical relays to provide better performance with longer life.

The ’scopes are also claimed to be the first in their class to be certified by the LXI consortium, providing users the flexibility of programming over the web.

In addition to digital filtering, pass/fail testing, record and playback, the series also provides logic triggering across the four channels and alternate triggering providing a true dual time-base ’scope.

They also provide a complete set of interface options including LAN, USB and two x USB host.
