Economical and Multi-Functional MSO

The Instek MSO-2204EA is a mixed-signal oscilloscope, which offers 4 analog channels + 16 digital channels. The MSO2204EA has a built-in 16-channel logic analyzer and a dual channel 25MHz arbitrary waveform generator. The oscilloscope features a bandwidth of 200MHz. The Four analog channel model provides 1GSa/s maximum real-time sampling rate. The 8-inch 800*480 TFT LCD and the minimum 1mV/div vertical range allows the MSO-2204EA to measure complex feeble signals and clearly display measurement results.

For analog channels, the MSO2204EA provides 10M long memory for users to completely retrieve and analyze waveforms. Users, based upon the application requirements, can select 1k, 10k, 100k, 1M or 10M memory depth. Short memory depth collocating with the high sampling rate allows users to observe fast-changing waveforms and, on the other hand, long memory depth aims for continuously changing waveforms. The MSO-2204EA is equipped with waveform search and segmented memory functions to expand the flexible applications of 10M long memory. The segmented memory can be divided the maximum into 29,000 sections for users to bypass any unimportant waveforms so as to swiftly search all required waveforms. With the segmented memory function, more meaningful waveforms can be saved and target waveforms can be displayed rapidly. Users, by using the waveform search function, can rapidly search desired waveforms according to the required trigger conditions.

FRA Frequency Response Analyzer Software

MSO-2204EA also provides the frequency response analysis function (Bode plot). The FRA software can be directly downloaded from GW Instek website. Via arbitrary waveform generator, oscilloscope, and FRA software, users can obtain DUT's FRA characteristic curve plot. FRA has a very wide application range, including product circuit and component performance verification and analysis such as Feedback of Circuit Design, Filter Design, Amplifier Design, Resonant Circuit Design, Cable Frequency Response, and Signal Transformer Performance. Via FRA, users can preliminarily verify product and analyze component's characteristics without the expensive instrument.

The frequency range of FRA is from 20Hz to 25MHz; the number of test point can be selected from 10 to 90 points per decade. After completing the Bode plot, users can select measurement curve by Cursor so as to retrieve each point's amplitude and phase on the curve.

16-channel logic analyzer

16-channel logic analyzer has a memory depth of 10Mpts per channel, which can retrieve more and longer digital signals as well as clearly display digital signals to obtain sufficient information for analysis. The minimum input swing of logic analyzer represents the minimum operating voltage of ±250 mV, which demonstrates that digital channels are highly sensitive with respect to input. The standard bus trigger and decoding functions include serial and parallel bus such as I2C, SPI, UART (RS232/422/485) and CAN/LIN bus for automotive communications. The parallel bus function is only for digital channels. Bus waveforms can be triggered and decoded in real time. The MSO-2204EA offers complete analysis and debugging capabilities with the economical pricing.

Dual channel 25MHz arbitrary waveform generator

In addition to a 16-channel logic analyzer, MSO-2204EA has a built-in dual channel 25MHz arbitrary waveform generator with the modulation capability and also features 14 bits vertical resolution; sample rate of 200MSa/s; 5 standard output waveforms (Sine, Square, Pulse, Ramp, DC, Noise) and 7 user-defined waveforms (Sinc, Gaussian, Lorentz, Exponential Rise, Exponential Fall, Haversine, Cardiac); AM/FM/FSK modulation and sweep function. The user friendly interface is the ideal choice for applications such as circuit simulation and education tests.
