LeCroy (www.lecroy.com) has introduced a four channel oscilloscope that combines high bandwidth edge with 10 different SMART triggers, allowing users to quickly isolate problems and start focusing on the cause.

Offering six GHz bandwidth, the WavePro 760Zi-A comes with a large 15.4-inch WXGA color display, a sampling rate of up to 20 GS/s as well as 50 Ω and 1 MΩ input capability. The oscilloscope also include both ProLink and ProBus input types, enabling eight probes to be attached and multiplexed by remote control or from the front panel.

The WavePro 760Zi-A features TriggerScan, which employs high-speed hardware triggering capability to provide users with up to 100X faster answers while capturing only the signals of interest. Unlike conventional fast display update modes that operate best on frequent events on slow edge rates, TriggerScan works best in locating infrequent events occurring on fast edge rates.

Since the best trigger is inadequate to locate all unusual events, WaveScan offers the ability to find unusual events in just a single capture or “scan” for a particular event in various acquisitions over longer periods of time. Users can choose from over 20 search modes, such as rise time, frequency, duty cycle and runt. Whenever an event is identified, WaveScan highlights the error on the display, showing a table listing of the errors found.

The oscilloscope’s proprietary X-Stream II architecture effectively made long acquisition memory seamless and easy, as it supports measuring, zooming, capturing and analyzing multiple waveforms at 256 Mpts deep.
