wfms/s (in UltraAcquire Mode), 50 Mpts memory depth, 12 bit resolution, and low noise.
The DHO900 series supports 16 digital channels. One instrument can make an analysis on both the
analog and digital signals to meet the embedded design and test scenarios. With an affordable
price equivalent to purchasing an entry-level instrument, you can access the auto serial and parallel
bus analysis, bode plot analysis, and other functions to meet the test demands in the R&D,
