Agilent MegaZoom III – HIGHEST definition color display

thdcd_bhdcd_mid With Agilent's MegaZoom III technology, the 6000 Series oscilloscopes provide the highest-definition display of oscilloscope waveforms in the industry, even exceeding the quality of traditional analog scopes. This is achieved by mapping up to 8,000,000 digitized points to a color XGA display (768x1024) with 256 levels of intensity grading.

Display intensity gradation can be extremely important when you are looking for signal anomalies, especially when you are viewing complex-modulated analog signals such as video, read-write disk head signals, and digitally controlled motor drive signals. Intensity gradation is also helpful in a wide variety of mixed-signal applications found in embedded microprocessor and microcontroller technologies common in the automotive, industrial, and consumer markets. But even when you are viewing purely digital waveforms, intensity gradation can show statistical information about edge jitter, vertical noise, and the relative occurrence of anomalies.

These two images show an example of capturing and displaying a composite video waveform (top photo) and a start-up cycle of a motor drive signal (bottom photo).
