54820A

Keysight Technologies (Agilent HP)Digital

The Keysight (Agilent) Infiniium 54820A is a 2-channel, 500 MHz digital oscilloscope designed for general-purpose design and troubleshooting. Combining a traditional, simple analog-like front panel with the powerful user interface of a Windows-based system, it offers a 2 GSa/s sample rate on both channels simultaneously for fast and accurate waveform capture.
