GW Instek GDS-2254HG Digital Storage Oscilloscope, 250 MHz, 4 Channels, 2.5 GSa/s, 12-bit, 100 Mpts 03LLDS2254GS

With a 250 MHz bandwidth and 2.5 GSa/s real-time sampling rate, the GW Instek GDS-2254HG captures fast signals with precision. Its 12-bit vertical resolution reveals fine signal details that 8-bit scopes miss, while the deep 100 Mpts memory per channel allows long captures at full sample rate.

Overview

The GDS-2254HG is a 4-channel digital storage oscilloscope built for demanding debugging and analysis. An 8-inch TFT LCD provides a clear view of waveforms, and the high waveform update rate of 120,000 wfms/s ensures rare glitches are displayed quickly. A built-in 25 MHz, 2-channel function generator adds stimulus capability without extra bench space.

What stands out

• 12-bit vertical resolution for accurate amplitude measurements
• 100 Mpts memory depth per channel for long, detailed captures
• Serial bus decoding for I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, and LIN
• Built-in 25 MHz function generator with two channels
• USB and LAN connectivity for remote control and data transfer
