Industry’s Best Signal Integrity
S-Series next-generation technology blocks enable superior measurements
The heart of the oscilloscope is a 20-layer acquisition board with 16 custom ASICs and FPGAs� New technology blocks deliver superior
signal integrity� You’ll get superior measurements that you won’t get with any other portable scope on the market�
10-bit ADC
Each model incorporates the industry’s fastest 10-bit ADC with a sample rate of
40 GSa/s� This yields 2 channels at 20 GSa/s or 4 channels at 10 GSa/s�
– 4X more vertical resolution than 8-bit oscilloscopes
– ADC ENOB up to 8�7 contributes to high system ENOB values
– Up to 12 bits of resolution with high-res mode
– SNR are better than historical 8-bit ADC architectures
– Vertical scaling as low as 2 mV/div supported in hardware
Keysight’s new 10-bit ADC
– 65 nm CMOS (9 mm x 14 mm)
– 130 nm BiCMOS buffer IC
– Custom 33 mm BGA package
Superior low-noise front end
– 10-bit ADC’s usefulness is dependent on the low-noise front end that supports the
additional quantization levels� Each S-Series oscilloscope incorporates the industry’s
lowest noise front end for portable oscilloscopes with bandwidth up to 8 GHz
– 50 Ω and 1 MΩ input support, each path with bandwidth limit filter support
– Analog and DSP bandwidth limit filters to reduce unwanted noise
– 90 uV noise at 1 GHz bandwidth allows viewing of small signal detail
– 2 mV/div vertical scaling in hardware (in combination with ADC)
– HW bandwidth limit filters on both 50 Ω and 1 MΩ paths
– Gold-plated precision BNCs rated in excess of 8 GHz bandwidth
– Electronic attenuators for decreased noise and increased reliability
– Lower bandwidth models are upgradable to any higher bandwidth model with an
instant user-installed software license
S-Series front-end includes three new
custom ICs including a 130 nm BiiCMOS IC
that incorporates user-selectable analog
filters and bandwidth upgrades via a
software license�
