Siglent SDS6000A DSO's 500MHz-2GHz

[tautech]

I really don´t like the black "panda" look on the screen.

Maybe this looks better ? 

[Sighound36]

Yes a black arse end 

Tautech so what options are available for this apart from the usual basic lists you have shown.

What is the price of the BW upgrades on the 12 bit model from say 350Mhz to 1Ghz?

Any plans for eye or Jitter at all?

Lecroy can manage jitter on the 4 series will it come to the 6000 pro?

[tinhead]

But historically it is near impossible to get the published wfm/s from Siglent. I.e. i cannot get near 10,000 on the 2000x plus, it is more like 5,000.  And if you have measurement open, it pauses like every second

i don't have 2000x plus, but of of curiosity, did someone else reported it as well?

OP has been updated with all I could find for the moment.

Dunno much yet, not even a projected release date.  ....well not from my sources is the sales dept.

Don't wanna bother the guys in R&D so rather just let them get on with it.....but I'm always fishing for little bits of info. 
However if the Pro has the grunt there's no reason that feature requests can't be added later.

Can't see Bode plot mentioned in the datasheet but I haven't even skimmed through the user manual yet.

I posted a test on the SDS2000X plus thread: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/siglent-sds2000x-plus-coming/msg3074532/#msg3074532

Anyone know rough release date and price targets for these scopes? 6k USD mentioned earlier for entry model.

Chinese home market only

Will it be that hard to import one if this one worth it ?

[Sighound36]

For the sort of outlay you are talking seriously consider the LeCroy HDO4000A, they have offers at the moment on new fully loaded scopes plus its a Euro zone purchase if any warranty issues arise. These are 12 bit scopes as well.

Lecroy direct sales costs

WaveSurfer 4000HD Series   
WAVESURFER 4024HD   6995€
WAVESURFER 4034HD   7995€
WAVESURFER 4054HD   8995€
WAVESURFER 4104HD   9995€

About the new Siglent scope: Is 12-bit supported for the entire bandwidth range, or does it only work for lower bandwidths?

What about the WaveSurfer from LeCroy? Does it support the full bandwidth?

Hummm 17K$ for a Siglent SDS6034 H12 Pro, apart for the memory, I don't see what the Siglent has more/better ?

Apart from that, there have been several mentions of "ZODIAC" here and there...what is it? Is this the name of their new platform?

Hi Pascal

Pretty sure its the same platform in a different case with more memory (at a cost) Lecroy and Sigent do share many things. Lecroy were the first to introduce 12 bits some 8 years ago

The Waverunner HDO4000 is 12 bits all the time I suspect the Siglent may also.

Have to be honest at this sort of outlay in the segment of the market you are talking about the Lecroy would be my choice, I am biased as I do own a Lecroy, but also  Siglent and Rigol

[nctnico]

Based on the indication that the SDS6000 Pro is Chinese market only it seems to me it is a rehash of the Lecroy HDO4000 for the Chinese market. Lecroy and Siglent have done this before where Siglent marketed a China-only version and Lecroy offered the same device to the rest of the world (SDS3000 / Wavesurfer 3000 IIRC).

I have mentioned this before and I agree 100% nctnico.

Suspect the Lecroy HDO4000 is getting a revamp in the not too distant future possibly

^ For the foreseeable future.

Tautech's  use of winky emoticons signifies he knows of the imminent release of several new Siglent models he has corporate knowledge about, one could speculate 

When are they due on the market under a month or in the next 14 days? Or possibly the premature use of a  ?

We won't see Pro in the west in Siglent colors for a good while unfortunately.

I wasn't thinking of the Pro model but the possibility of 'other' new Siglent items due within a short time span or just overly judicious use smiles

Yeah well they haven't been sitting around in the last year SDS5000X, SDS2000X+, SVA's, SSA's and SSA X-R to 7.5 GHz and RF gen's to 6 GHz and 2020 is nowhere near over yet !

Exactly my point  so the latest new hush, hush models are due when in the next couple of weeks? 

[tautech]

What options are available Mr Tautech any eye jitter apps in the offing at all

OP updated with newer image and some updated overview specs including now a 2 GHz model also.

Siglent is showing SDS6104A at DesignCon'21 in San Jose this week. According to the rep, the US release is planned for this autumn.

Welcome to the forum.

Nice and thanks for sharing but a shame you didn't spend a moment demonstrating how they should have set a stable trigger ! 

Do you have any further info to share ?

[AaronLee]

I love my SDS2104X Plus, but the one thing I wish they'd done was make the scope wider and included separate controls for each of the four channels, rather than single controls and needing to select which channel it applies to. The SDS5000X series' controls are exactly what I really wanted, but didn't want to spend the extra money just for that. Now I see the SDS6000 Pro series also has the shared controls. I guess some people just like the smaller form factor the having shared controls allowed, but not me. To me, it seems like a step backwards. Well, I don't think I'll be in the market for a new scope for a long time, unless suddenly my bandwidth requirements jump up a lot, so in actuality it doesn't matter to me what they do with the SDS6000 Pro series. But still sometimes it's nice to dream about what could be near-perfect equipment even if you can't afford it.

10/12 bit would certainly be nice to have. Maybe after a few there will be a SDS5000X Plus model with some of the enhanced features of the SDS6000 Pro series, but at a more affordable price.

[JPortici]

Try the touch screen (and the data entry for things like offset). Separate controls for everything is overrated
