GW Instek (www.gwinstek.com) seamlessly combines real-time sampling rate of 1GSa/s, an equivalent-time (ET) sampling rate of 25 GSa/s with a record length of up to 25K points in a dual channel oscilloscope. Offering a vertical resolution of eight bits and a rise time of 3.5 ns, the GDS-2102 oscilloscope delivers the highest value platform among comparable products offered in the market today.

Standard features of this 100 MHz oscilloscope include FFT measurement, 27 Auto Measurement functions, Advanced Triggering, Time Clock, 12 Division Horizontal Display, Go/NoGo, Frequency Counter, On-Line Help, Multi-Language Screen Menu, a Lifetime Warranty and Setup Sequence.

Its real-time sampling rate of 1GSa/s enables the oscilloscope to accurately measure high frequency signals. The higher sampling rate helps users acquire more waveform data within a short span of time. This is particularly useful for non-repetitive (single-shot) waveform capture and observation since faster acquisition of waveform data, yields to better waveform reconstruction.

However, for repetitive signals the preferred tool is the ET sampling. This mode allows the oscilloscope to periodically acquire data, with the sampling points increased with every successive sample.

Also, the GDS-2102 oscilloscope offers crisp and clear view with its color TFT LCD display. Unlike STN panels, TFT display reduce flicker, offer wider viewing angles as well as brighter color reproduction. It can simultaneously display four waveforms, signal data and measurement grids, providing users with convenient comparing and analyzing with its clear, bright and colored screen.
