4 Ch., 2.5 GHz, 40GS/s DSO Oscilloscope

With the WavePro 7 Zi series LeCroy has leveraged its more than forty years of instrument design experience to offer a host of exclusive features including:

• “TriggerScan™” glitch capture
• 15.3 inch widescreen display
• Removable front panel ( Figure 1)
• Dual probe interfaces (4-6 GHz)
• Up to 128 Mpoint FFT’s
• True quad-core processing
• 500 Mpts/s data transfer rates

Let’s look at how the WavePro 7 Zi series oscilloscopes can help solve your measurement problems. Figure 2 shows a block diagram of a typical electronic device with a variety of devices and data paths. In the past debugging a device like this might require 3 or more different instruments.

The CPU block, shown outlined in green, can be debugged with a general purpose scope that has low speed serial bus trigger and decode capability and can handle I2C and SPI data and clock signals.

The section enclosed in blue contains the parallel digital buses. Here a logic analyzer or mixed-signal oscilloscope would be useful.

The areas enclosed in red require a wide bandwidth scope equipped with jitter analysis and serial data compliance testing. This instrument needs to have a high sampling rate and a stable timebase
