Waveform Capture and Regeneration using EasyWave Software and a SIGLENT oscilloscope with the AWG option
December 27, 2017
Some SIGLENT oscilloscopes feature an Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) option. This feature allows you to source basic waveforms up-to 25 MHz outputs up to 6 Vpp (-3 to +3 V max in High Z output impedance). In this application note, we are going to show the steps involved in capturing a waveform on a SIGLENT … Continued
How to Capture a Runt Pulse with a SIGLENT SDS Oscilloscope
December 27, 2017
Capturing a Runt Pulse The new Super Phosphor Oscilloscope (SPO) technology supports deep memory, a fast waveform refresh rate and a 256 grey scale and color temperature waveform display. The intelligent Pass / Fail function is widely used in industrial electronic detection. The technology also includes powerful intelligent triggering (window, interval, timeout, pattern, Runt). Here … Continued

SIGLENT X and X-E series oscilloscopes Sequence and History mode
October 25, 2017
With the advance of science and technology, more demands are being placed upon stability, performance, and the intelligence of electronic products. Product design engineers face many problems with the verification and debugging of high-speed signals. A typical example is intermittent glitches with some low duty cycle signals, such as laser pulses, metastable low-duty radar pulses or … Continued
Oscilloscope Hardware Reset
October 25, 2017
In some extreme hardware errors, the oscilloscope may become unresponsive or “hang” during the boot sequence. If your oscilloscope is frozen, will not boot, or appears to be unresponsive, you can attempt a hardware reset by following these instructions: 1. Disconnect all USB, LAN, and input cables. Leave the power cord connected. 2. Power cycle … Continued
