Discover: The Industry’s Fastest Uncompromised Update Rate Increases the
Chance of Finding Anomalies
Industry-leading uncompromised update rate
If you can’t see the problem, you can’t fix the problem. With an industry-leading update
rate of over one million waveforms per second, the InfiniiVision 3000T X-Series gives you
the highest probability of capturing random and infrequent events that you would miss
on an oscilloscope with a lower waveform update rate.
Powered by MegaZoom IV smart memory technology, the InfiniiVision 3000T X-Series
not only lets you see more waveforms, but it has the uncompromised ability to find the
most difficult problems in your design under any conditions. Unlike other oscilloscopes,
uncompromised ability means:
–– Always-fast, responsive operation
–– No slowdown with logic channels on
–– No slowdown with protocol decoding on
–– No slowdown with math functions on
–– No slowdown with measurements on
–– No slowdown with vectors on
–– No slowdown with sinx/x interpolation on
What is waveform update rate?
As oscilloscopes acquire data, process it, and plot it to the screen, there is inevitable
“dead time,” or the time oscilloscopes miss signals completely. In general, the faster the
waveform update rate, the shorter the dead time. The shorter the dead time, the more
likely an oscilloscope is to capture anomalies and infrequent events. This is why it is
important to select an oscilloscope with a fast waveform update rate. Figures 7 and 8
demonstrate the difference between a slower update rate and a faster update rate.
Figure 9. Other vendor’s oscilloscope with 50,000 waveforms/second. A long dead time decreases
your chances of capturing infrequent events.

increases your chancs of capturing infrequent events.
