Rohde & Schwarz extends its portfolio with a 2U excessive oscilloscope/digitizer tailor-made for rack mount and different functions the place a low-profile kind issue is crucial. The brand new MXO 5C collection is the corporate’s first oscilloscope with out an built-in show. It delivers the identical peformance because the beforehand launched MXO 5 collection, however with a fourth of the vertical top.
Rohde & Schwarz introduces the brand new MXO 5C oscilloscope with 4 or eight channels. The brand new collection relies on the next-generation MXO 5 oscilloscope and particularly addresses rack mount and automatic check system functions the place customers are sometimes confronted with area limitations. The instrument’s 2U vertical top – simply 3.5” or 8.9 cm – permits engineers to deploy it in check programs the place a conventional oscilloscope with a big show wouldn’t match. The compact kind issue can also be of worth in functions with excessive channel density the place customers want numerous channels in a small quantity. Customers function the instrument through the built-in internet interface, or they work together with it solely programmatically and use the instrument as a high-speed digitizer.
Like different MXO oscilloscopes, the brand new MXO 5C collection builds on next-generation MXO-EP processing ASIC know-how developed by Rohde & Schwarz. It presents the quickest acquisition seize fee on the earth of as much as
4.5 million acquisitions per second. This makes it the world’s first compact oscilloscope that enables engineers to seize as much as 99% real-time sign exercise enabling them to see extra sign particulars and rare occasions higher than with another oscilloscope.
Philip Diegmann, Vice President Oscilloscopes at Rohde & Schwarz, mentioned: “Whereas oscilloscopes with giant shows work properly for bench utilization, we’ve had various clients ask for a model that’s tailor-made for rack mount functions. On the identical time, now we have clients who want a big channel rely, for instance in physics. With the MXO 5C we created a novel instrument that provides the absolute best efficiency for each situations.” The brand new kind issue permits to put many channels in shut proximity. The eight-channel mannequin of the MXO 5C supplies a channel density of 1500 cm3 per channel and consumes simply 23 watts per channel.
Whereas primarily designed for rack mount utilization, the instrument doubles as a stand-alone bench oscilloscope. Customers can merely connect an exterior show through the built-in DisplayPort and HDMI connectors, or they will
entry the instrument’s GUI through an internet interface by typing within the oscilloscope’s IP handle into their browser. As the primary oscilloscope to supply E-ink show know-how, the MXO 5C exhibits the IP handle and different crucial info on a small non-volatile show on the entrance of instrument, which stays seen even when energy is switched off.
Just like the MXO 5, the MXO 5C collection is available in each 4 and eight channel fashions, in bandwidth ranges with100 MHz, 200 MHz, 350 MHz, 500 MHz, 1 GHz, and a pair of GHz fashions. The beginning worth of EUR 18 000 for the eight-channel fashions units a brand new {industry} normal. Numerous improve choices can be found to customers with demanding utility wants, akin to 16 digital channels with a mixed-signal oscilloscope (MSO) possibility, an built-in dual-channel 100 MHz arbitrary generator, protocol decode and triggering choices for industry-standard buses and a frequency response analyzer to boost the capabilities of the instrument.
The brand new MXO 5C collection oscilloscopes are actually out there from Rohde & Schwarz and chosen distribution channel companions. For extra info on the instrument, go to :
