“Their compact lightweight design makes these the perfect choice for field work and classroom alike,” said Conrad. The “built-in HMDI port allows mirroring display content to large screens”.

Maximum sample rate is 1.25Gsample/s, and operation is though the gesture-capable touchscreen or more conventional knobs and buttons.

The instruments are:

  • DOV702 70MHz 2-chan 50Mpoint
  • DOV704 70MHz 4-chan 50Mpoint
  • DOV1002 100MHz 2-chan 50Mpoint
  • DOV1004 100MHz 4-chan 50Mpoint
  • DOV1254 LA 125MHz 4-chan 100Mpoint, logic analyser
  • DOV1254F LA 125MHz 4-chan 100Mpoint, logic analyser, function generator
  • DOV2504 LA 250 MHz 4-chan 100Mpoint, logic analyser
  • DOV2504F LA 250 MHz 4-chan 100Mpoint, logic analyser, function generator

Where a logic analyser function is included, it will not work unless the DOV-PP116 16-channel logic analyser probe is purchased as well.

Picking the range-topping DOV2504F LA, this has a 7inch 1,024 x 600 multi-touch capacitive screen.

Sampling is 1.25Gsample/s on one channel, 625Msample/s or 1.25Gsample/s on two channels, and 625Msample/s on four channels.

Real-time acquisition is up to 50,000 waveform/s. “This goes up to 700,000 waveform/s when using segmented memory which allows visualising irregular interference signals,” said Conrad.

Triggering includes: flank, video, impulse, slope, runt, window, timeout, nth, logic, RS232/UART, I2C, SPI, LIN, CAN – and decoders are included for these serial busses.

Fast Fourier transformation (to generate spectral plots) is amongst the included maths functions.

Alongside the HDMI port is USB, LAN and a BNC connector – the latter emitting pulses triggered by  internal pass-fail comparisons of input signals with internal pre-set waveforms.

12V 4A power is required through its Type-C input, and overall dimensions are 160 x 260 x 78mm and 1.5kg.

Late last year, Rohde & Schwarz announced a series of ‘entry-level’ scopes at similar frequencies, but they to cost around 4x the ones above.
