12bit ADC: all the time

All R&S®MXO4 series oscilloscopes incorporate a 12bit

A/D converter. 12bit vertical resolution delivers 4096

quantization levels for precise vertical sampling. This is a

16x improvement over 8bit ADCs. The ADC stays in 12bit

mode all the time, even at the fastest sample rates.

Vertical sensitivity to 500µV/div with ±5V offset range

The R&S®MXO4 series oscilloscope offers an outstand-

ing sensitivity down to 500µV/div without any unexpected

reduction in bandwidth. With offset of ±5V at higher sen-

sitivity vertical scale, you can easily place the signal at the

center of the screen. Extended offset enables use of more

sensitive vertical resolution, meaning higher ADC bits and

lower noise.

18bit architecture with HD mode

Offering a user tradeoff between bandwidth and bits of

resolution, HD mode, implemented in hardware for fast

speed, achieves up to 18bit vertical resolution. This allows

you to see sharper waveforms with more signal details

that would otherwise be masked by noise. In addition to

superior vertical resolution, R&S®MXO4 oscilloscopes are

engineered with the lowest-in-industry system measure-

ment noise of just 22µV AC (RMS) at 1mV/div.
