Posted byBatter Fly10/07/20250 Comment(s)4338Test y Medida,
The SDS7000A/AP series utilizes SIGLENT's SPO technology, with a waveform capture rate up to 1,000,000 wfm/s, 256-level intensity grading, and color temperature display mode. The innovative, low-jitter digital trigger system supports numerous advanced modes, including serial bus trigger and decode. Features such as history recording, search and navigation, SignalScan, mask testing, Bode Plot, power analysis, jitter/eye analysis, and compliance testing allow you to capture, store, and analyze extensive waveform records. An optional 50 MHz arbitrary waveform generator and decoding for numerous serial protocols are also available.
The large 15.6" HD display with capacitive multi-touch support provides an advanced, intuitive user experience, improving operational efficiency. Remote control is possible via mouse, keyboard, and integrated web server over LAN.
On July 10, 2025, SIGLENT's SDS7000A series was expanded with the new SDS7804A H12, SDS7604AP, and SDS7804AP models, joining the existing SDS7304A H12, SDS7404A H12, and SDS7604A H12 models.
12-bit resolution shows you more details and less noise on the waveform
Upgraded processor system
Processor fully upgraded from the embedded ARM processor to the X86 processor, has greatly improved the system response speed and the speed of measurement, calculation, and analysis, presenting more possibilities for the expansion of software analysis functions in the future.

15.6" HD display with 1920 x 1080 pixels resolution
Capacitive touch screen, supporting multi-touch gestures, can move or scale the waveform traces quickly by finger-touch movements, which greatly improves the operational efficiency
Built-in WebServer supports remote control on a web page over LAN
Supports external mouse and keyboard
High Waveform Update Rate
With a waveform update rate of up to 1,000,000 wfm/s, the oscilloscope can easily capture unusual or low-probability events. In Sequence mode, the waveform capture rate can reach 1,100,000 wfm/s.
Deep Record Length
Using hardware-based Zoom technique and record length of up to 1 Gpts, users can select a slower timebase without compromising the sample rate, and then quickly zoom in to focus on the area of interest.
Multiple Trigger Functions
Edge, Slope, Pulse, Video, Windows, Runt, Interval, Dropout, Pattern, Qualified, Nth edge, Setup/hold, Delay and serial trigger.
Zone Trigger
Zone Trigger is available for advanced triggering. Combine spatial triggering with common trigger modes to isolate signals of interest.
Advanced Math Function
In addition to the traditional (+, -, X, /) operations, FFT, Filter, integration, differential, square root, and more are supported. Formula Editor is available for more complex operations. 4 math traces are available.
Deep Memory FFT
FFT supports up to 32 Mpts operation. This provides highfrequency resolution with a fast refresh rate. The FFT function also supports a variety of window functions so that it can adapt to different spectrum measurement needs. Three modes (Normal, Average, and Max hold) can satisfy different requirements for observing the power spectrum. Auto peak detection and markers are supported.
Measurements of a Variety of Parameters
Parameter measurements include 4 categories: horizontal, vertical, miscellaneous, and CH delay providing a total of 50+ different types of measurements. Measurements can be performed within a specified gate period. Measurements on Math, Reference, and History frames are supported.
Parameter Statistics Function
Statistics show the current value, maximum value, minimum value, standard deviation, and mean value of up to 12 parameters simultaneously. A histogram is available to show the probability distribution of a parameter. Trend and Track are available to show the parameter value vs. time.
For horizontal parameters such as period, all results are extracted from a frame, instead of just calculating the first one. This accelerates statistics on horizontal measurements and enables distribution observation in a frame using Histogram and Track.
History Mode
History function can record up to 124,000 frames of waveforms. The recording is executed automatically so that the customer can playback the history waveforms at any time to observe unusual events and quickly locate the area of interest using the cursors or measurements. The failed frames of the Mask Test can be stored as history.
Sequence Mode
Segmented memory collection will store the waveform into multiple memory segments (up to 124,000) and each segment will store a triggered waveform as well the dead time information. The interval between segments can be as small as 0.9 μs. All of the segments can be played back using the History function.
Search and Navigate
The oscilloscope can search events specified by the user in a frame. Events flagged by the Search can be recalled automatically using Navigate. It can also navigate by time (delay position) and history frames.
Serial Bus Decode
Display the decoded characters through the events list. Bus protocol information can be quickly and intuitively displayed in tabular form. I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN, CAN FD, FlexRay, I2S, MIL-STD-1553B, SENT, Manchester, ARINC429 and USB 2.0 are supported.
Hardware-based High Speed Mask Test Function
The oscilloscope utilizes a hardware-based Mask Test function, performing up to 80,000 Pass / Fail decisions each second. It is easy to generate user-defined test templates to provide trace mask comparisons, making it suitable for long-term signal monitoring or automated production line testing.
Built-in Mask Editor application helps to create custom masks.
Eye/Jitter Analysis
Supports eye diagram and jitter analysis/measurement (option SDS7000A-EJ). It can automatically extract the embedded reference clock from serial data and create the eye diagram. Measurement on multiple eye/jitter parameters is provided. Mask test on eye diagrams is supported
Compliance Test (Optional) USB 2.0, 100Base-TX, 1000Base-T, 100Base-T1, 1000BaseT1 protocol conformance testing are available. When the user sets up the environment according to the prompts, by using the related test fixture, the oscilloscope and related instruments can be automatically set up and related measurement, calculation, decoding and other functions will be used for testing, helping the user to complete each test project quickly and efficiently, and reports are generated automatically.
Bode Plot
The oscilloscope can control the Built-in waveform generator, SIGLENT isolated USB AWG module or a stand-alone SIGLENT SDG generator, to scan the amplitude and phasefrequency response of the DUT, and display the data as a Bode Plot. This makes it possible to replace expensive network analyzers in some applications.
Power Analysis (Optional)
The Power Analysis option provides a full suite of power measurements and analysis, which greatly improve the measurement efficiency in switching power supplies and power devices design.
Digital Channels / MSO (Optional)
Four analog channels plus 16 digital channels enable users to acquire and trigger the waveforms then analyze the pattern, simultaneously with one instrument.
The oscilloscope can control the built-in waveform generator to output waveform with up to 50 MHz frequency and ±3 V amplitude. Six basic waveforms plus multiple types of arbitrary waveforms are built-in.
5 GHz Active Differential Probe
The SAP5000D differential probe is provided with 5GHz bandwidth, 80 ps rise time, 400 fF differential input capacitance, and 10:1 attenuation ratio.
