Infiniium Benefits
(continued)
Up to 128 Mpts industry-leading
deep memory
Sample rate and memory depth
go hand-in-hand. Deep memory
in oscilloscopes sustains a high
sample rate over longer time
spans. With up to 128 Mpts
of acquisition memory, the
Infiniium 8000 Series offers
superior resolution when
capturing long, complex
waveforms. Deep memory is
critically important in embedded
designs implementing slow analog
with fast digital, serial buses, and
RF communication.
Infiniium’s segmented memory
acquisition mode adds additional
capability to deep memory
acquisition when you are
capturing bursted or packetized
signals. With segmented memory,
only the packets of interest are
captured and stored into
acquisition memory for viewing
and analysis — no valuable
memory is consumed during
periods of inactivity between
packets. Coupled with 128 Mpts
of acquisition memory, 1000s of
packets can be captured at the
oscilloscope’s maximum sample
rate over seconds, or even days
of time. With precise time-tags
on each segment, segmented
memory acquisition mode
effectively provides gigabytes of
acquisition memory in a single,
high sample rate acquisition by
efficiently utilizing the real
acquisition memory it has.
