HP 54820A

500MHz Digital Oscilloscope

The Infiniium family''s Agilent 54820A offers the versatility and performance you need for general purpose design and troubleshooting. 2 channels, 500 MHz bandwidth, and a sample rate of 2 GSa/s on both channels simultaneously ensures fast, accurate capture of your waveforms. Like the other Infiniium models, the Agilent 54820A''s easy, familiar user interface makes it easy to take advantage of the performance inside.

Features:

  • 500-MHz bandwidth
  • 2-channels
  • 2-GSa/s sample rates
  • Simple, analog-like front panel
  • Windows® 98-based graphical user interface
  • Built-in information system
  • Built-in 120MB floppy disk
  • LAN printing and file sharing
  • Eye diagrams and mask testing

AutoProbe Interface AutoProbe is an intelligent communication and power link between compatible probes and Agilent Infinium Oscilloscopes. AutoProbe completely configures the scope for the attached probe. For instance, it identifies the probe type and sets up the proper input impedance, attenuation ratio, probe power and offset range, as needed.

1Rise time figures are calculated from tr = 0.35/bandwidth.

2Magnification is used below 7 mV/div range. Below 7 mV/div, full scale is defined as 56 mV. Full scale is defined as the major attenuator setting above an intermediate setting. (Major settings 50 ohm: 10 mV, 20 mV, 50 mV, 100 mV, 200 mV, 500 mV, 1 V, 1 M ohm: all of the above plus 2 V).

3The dc gain accuracy decreases 0.08% of full scale per degree C from the firmware calibration temperature.

4For bandwidth limited signals, tr >= 1.4 x sample interval.

2Magnificationis used below 7 mV/div range. Below 7 mV/div, full scale is defined as 56 mV. Full scale is defined as the major attenuator setting above an intermediate setting. (Major settings 50 ohm: 10 mV, 20 mV, 50 mV, 100 mV, 200 mV, 500 mV, 1 V, 1 M ohm: all of the above plus 2 V).

5FFT amplitude readings are affected by input amplifier roll-off (-3 dBat 500 MHz, with amplitude decreasing as frequency increases above 500 MHz).
