Industry’s first economy-class mixed signal
oscilloscope (MSO)
The 2000 X-Series is the first instrument in its class to
offer an integrated logic timing analyzer. Digital content is
everywhere in today’s designs and with an additional 8 inte-
grated digital timing channels, you now have up to 12 chan-
nels of time-correlated triggering, acquisition and viewing
on the same instrument. Buy a 2 or 4 channel DSO and at
any time, upgrade it yourself to a MSO with a license to
turn on those integrated 8 digital timing channels.
Industry’s first WaveGen built-in 20 MHz
function generator with a modulation capability
An industry first, the 2000 X-Series offers an integrated
20 MHz function generator, now available with the signal
modulation capability. Ideal for educational or design labs
where bench space and budget are at a premium, the
integrated function generator provides stimulus output
of sine, square, ramp, pulse, DC and noise waveforms to
your device under test. No need to buy a separate function
generator when you can get one integrated in your new
oscilloscope. Turn on WaveGen at any time by ordering the
DSOX2WAVEGEN option and install the license yourself.
Best-in-class oscilloscope
The InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series features Agilent’s patented
MegaZoom IV smart memory technology that is always
enabled and always responsive providing the industry’s fast-
est update rate at up to 50,000 waveforms per second, with
no compromise if you turn on measurements or add digital
channels. In addition, the 2000 X-Series offers 23 automated
measurements such as voltage, time, and frequency as well
as five waveform math functions including add, subtract,
multiply, divide, and FFT.

Hardware-based serial protocol decode and
triggering
• Embedded serial triggering and analysis (I²C, SPI)
• Computer serial triggering and analysis
(RS232/422/485/UART)
• Automotive and industrial serial triggering and analysis
(CAN,LIN)
Agilent’s InfiniiVision Series oscilloscopes are the indus-
try’s first scopes to use hardware-based serial protocol
decoding. Other vendors scopes use software post-pro-
cessing techniques to decode serial packets⁄frames. With
these software techniques, waveform and decode-update
rates tend to be slow (sometimes seconds per update).
That’s especially true when using deep memory, which is
often required to capture multiple packetized serial bus
signals. Faster decoding with hardware-based technology
enhances scope usability, and more importantly, the prob-
ability of capturing infrequent serial communication errors.
After capturing a long record of serial bus communication
using the InfiniiVision scope’s MegaZoom IV deep memory,
you can easily perform a search operation based on specific
criteria, and then quickly navigate to bytes/frames of serial
data that satisfy that search criteria. Sometimes it may be
necessary to correlate data from one serial bus to another.
Integrated digital voltmeter
An industry first, the 2000 X-Series offers an integrated
3-digit voltmeter (DVM) and 5-digit frequency counter inside
the oscilloscopes. The voltmeter operates through the same
probes as the oscilloscope channels, however, the
measurements are de-coupled from the oscilloscope
triggering system so that both the DVM and triggered
oscilloscope measurements can be made with the same
connection. The voltmeter results are always displayed,
keeping these quick characterization measurements at
your fingertips. Turn on DVM at any time by ordering the
DSOXDVM option.
