Rohde & Schwarz unveils compact MXO 3 oscilloscopes with 4 and 8 channels: Advanced performance meets affordability Fast. Precise. Compact. These are the defining qualities of the new MXO 3 series oscilloscopes. Powered by the same next-generation MXO oscilloscope technology from Rohde & Schwarz, originally pioneered in the MXO 4 and MXO 5/5C series instruments, this latest addition to the oscilloscope portfolio delivers big capabilities in an exceptionally small package.
The MXO 3 series oscilloscopes from Rohde & Schwarz deliver big capabilities in a small package.
Rohde & Schwarz expands its next-generation MXO oscilloscope portfolio with the compact four- and eight-channel MXO 3 series. The MXO 3 delivers fast and precise advanced MXO technology - previously available only in larger, higher-priced models - in an extremely compact form factor at a more affordable price point. This oscilloscope allows engineers to see more of their DUTs signal than any other instrument in this class.
Fast.
All MXO 3 models come standard with up to 99 % real-time capture, which is up to 50 times better than competitors' instruments, enabling users to instantly see more signal details and rare events. Like other MXO models, these oscilloscopes leverage cutting-edge MXO-EP processing ASIC technology developed by Rohde & Schwarz to deliver:
4.5 million acquisitions per second - the fastest in the industry, allowing users to instantly detect additional signal detail and infrequent events.
600,000 trigger events per second with zone triggering - the fastest and most flexible in the industry, enabling users to isolate events in the time domain, including math and frequency domain signals.
50,000 FFTs per second - up to 1,000 times faster than other oscilloscopes, providing faster and more comprehensive analysis for applications such as EMI and harmonic testing.
600,000 math operations per second - the best in the industry and up to 100,000 times faster than competitive models, allowing users to accurately analyze signals like power, which require multiplication of voltage and current.
Precise.
All MXO 3 models are engineered with advanced technology to ensure accurate measurement isolation and results users can trust:
12-bit vertical resolution in hardware at all sample rates allows users to observe small signal changes even of larger signals. This provides 16 times more resolution than traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes.
HD mode enhances signal details that would otherwise be buried in noise. It offers both noise reduction and up to 18 bits of vertical resolution - the highest in the industry. Unlike other oscilloscopes, HD mode operates at full sample rate and is implemented in hardware, ensuring precision without sacrificing speed.
With the largest offset range in its class, MXO 3 users can take advantage of the most sensitive vertical scale setup to reveal more of their signal while minimizing measurement system noise. MXO 3 oscilloscopes feature a wide 3V offset at 1 mV/div on both 50 and 1 M input paths - two to three times better than other leading models in this class.
Compact.
Both the four- and eight-channel MXO 3 oscilloscopes are designed with a compact, portable form factor, making them easy to fit anywhere even on crowded benches. Their small footprint allows more space for the creative chaos of engineering workspaces. Combined with an industry-leading low audible noise - quieter than a whisper - the MXO 3 ensures a distraction-free work environment.
11.6 full-HD capacitive touchscreen, combined with intuitive user interface, offering an enhanced user experience to engineers who spend significant time working with the instrument.
Its light weight of only about 4 kg allows moving the MXO 3 easily to a different measurement location.
5U of rack height, ensuring efficient use of limited space in labs or testing environments.
The VESA mounting compatibility of the MXO 3 allows additional flexibility in engineering environments.
Philip Diegmann, Vice President of Oscilloscopes at Rohde & Schwarz, says: With the launch of the MXO 3, we are bringing the breakthrough capabilities of our MXO technology to a more accessible, smaller instrument class. This compact oscilloscope delivers the same cutting-edge performance and usability that our customers have come to expect, while opening up new possibilities for engineers at a variety of price points, especially with the addition of an eight-channel model - the only instrument of its kind in this class. At Rohde & Schwarz, we are committed to making advanced test and measurement tools available to more users, and our fast, precise and compact MXO 3 is another step forward in that mission.
The MXO 3 series oscilloscopes are available in both four- and eight-channel models, with bandwidth options including 100 MHz, 200 MHz, 350 MHz, 500 MHz, and 1 GHz. The starting price for the eight-channel models sets another industry benchmark for affordability at just EUR 12,500 while the four-channel models start at EUR 5,350.
For users with more demanding requirements, a variety of upgrade options are available. These include 16 integrated digital channels with a mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO) option, a 50 MHz arbitrary waveform generator, protocol decoding and triggering options for numerous industry standard buses and a frequency response analyzer to expand the instrument's capabilities.
The MXO 3 series oscilloscopes are part of the R&S ESSENTIALS portfolio and are available now from Rohde & Schwarz and selected distribution channel partners. For more information on the instrument, go to: R&S MXO 3
