Rigol DS1000Z Series [DS1054Z] 50 MHz 4-Channel Digital Oscilloscope

The Rigol DS1054Z is a high quality 4-channel digital storage oscilloscope that is setting the test world ablaze as a market leader. With a real-time sample rate of up to 1GSa/s and a bandwidth of 50MHz, it is extremely well-designed and is also easy to use, with ready-made functions for measuring a host of tasks. Menu navigation is intuitive and the large 12 Mpt memory insures capturing real-time instantaneous signals as well as repeated signals. The DS1054Z’s large 7” TFT color display is very easy to read and has a refresh rate of up to 30,000 wfms/s.   

Rigol’s UltraVision Technology is a hardware and software architecture accelerator which avoids burdening the embedded CPU by handling, calculating, and administering the huge amount of data produced by the fast A-to-D data conversion. A dedicated integrated sampling controller handles the data storage. The large data memory is directly connected with this sampling controller to achieve the most efficient data management. Additionally, a specially implemented waveform plotter function handles the data display together and the separate display data storage. Other functions such as Trigger, Pass/Fail decision, Record-Function control are also integrated in the hardware chipset, without needing processor resources. This design reduces the CPU burden in the oscilloscope to a minimum, resulting in a very fast waveform update rate.
