The Agilent 90000 X-Series oscilloscopes are the world’s fastest real-time oscilloscopes. They deliver 1) the industry’s highest real-time scope measurement accuracy, 2) the industry’s only 30-GHz oscilloscope probing system, and 3) the industry’s first application-specific measurement software. These oscilloscopes are able to deliver the highest measurement accuracy because they offer the highest true analog bandwidth (32 GHz), the lowest oscilloscope noise floor (2.04 mV at 50 mV/div, 32 GHz), and the lowest jitter measurement floor (150 fs).
