Oscilloscopes redefined: Breakthrough technology delivers more scope for the same budget
More scope
The InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series offers entry-level price
points to fit your budget with superior performance and
optional capabilities that are not available in any other
oscilloscope in its class. Our breakthrough technology
delivers more scope for the same budget.
With more scope, you can:
• See more
of your signal more of the time with the
largest screen in its class, the deepest memory and
the fastest waveform update rates
• Do more
with the power of 5 instruments in 1:
oscilloscope, logic timing analyzer, WaveGen
built-in 20 MHz Function/Arbitrary Waveform
Generator (optional), Integrated Digital Voltmeter
and protocol analyzer (optional)
• Get more investment protection with the industry’s
only fully upgradable scope, including bandwidth
and the most measurement applications available

Largest display
Engineering for the best signal visibility starts with the
largest display. Our 8.5-inch WVGA display offers 50%
more viewing area with 4 times the resolution (WVGA
800x480 versus WQVGA 400x240) so you can view analog,
digital and serial signals easily on screen.
Fastest update rate
With Agilent-designed MegaZoom IV custom ASIC
technology, the 3000 X-Series updates waveforms up to 1
million times per second.
If an oscilloscope updates waveforms slowly, it can make
using the oscilloscope very frustrating. Fast waveform
update rates can improve oscilloscope display quality to
show subtle waveform details such as noise and jitter
with display intensity modulation. Most importantly, fast
waveform update rates improve the probability of capturing
random and infrequent events that would not be captured
using an oscilloscope with a lower waveform update rate.
Notice that the Agilent 3000 X-Series allows you to see more of your signals, and captures the infrequent glitch and jitter that you
are unable to see on other oscilloscopes in this class.

Deeper memory for longer time capture
With up to 4 Mpts of MegaZoom IV deep memory, you
can capture long, non-repeating signals while maintaining
a high sample rate, then quickly zoom in on areas of
interest.
The InfiniiVision X-Series optimizes your deep memory
oscilloscope measurements by using MegaZoom IV
technology to make the most effective trade-offs in
sample rate, memory depth and waveform update
rate. Although you may think deeper memory is always
better, using deep memory means making tradeoffs for
many other scopes on the market today.
Scopes with deep memory are typically priced higher,
and require additional waveform processing time to
acquire deep memory waveforms. This typically means
waveform update rates will be reduced, sometimes
significantly. For this reason, most other scopes have
manual memory-depth selections, and the typical
default memory depth setting is usually relatively
shallow (10 to 100 kpts). If you want to use deep memory
in these other scopes, you must manually turn it on and
deal with the update rate tradeoff. So you have to know
when it is important to use deep memory and when it
is not.
Agilent’s exclusive MegaZoom IV technology automatically
selects deeper memory when needed in order to
maintain fast sample rates while also updating quickly.
How does Agilent do that?
