How tight are the software options on these higher-end scopes from a hackable perspective? - as 5k there and 5k there and 5k there, for some poor peasants, it adds up.. :scared: |

I think there's hardly anything our gifted chief hacker can't hack... On the other hand, if you can put down €17,000 for a scope... |

That video in reply #78 was quite impressive. "Right now we're in non HD mode so you can see that we only have 12bits of resolution" "Only" 12bits!? My scopes both have 8 and I'm sure not all of them are usable :-) Oh well, not within reach (or reason) for me personally but cool nonetheless. (I would have gotten the RTB2000 back in the day but the intro-deal was of limits to Europeans so I shopped elsewhere). |

Hello, I tried to try the measurement of the video in #78 with the AD3. Since the most sensitive setting is 500 mV/div, I used the amplitude 4 Vss instead of 800 mVss. you can see the settings in the picture Signal_W_AD3.jpeg. Best regards egonotto |

Best regards egonotto --- End quote --- As long as we are comparing notes (hope Paul won't be mad at me for distraction..) to get a feeling of performance baselines, my few cents...... With similar scope (1GHz BW, 12 Bit, 5GS/s, 200MHz BW limit set) and similar signal. First we can see baseline nose is less. We can see 10 MHz 2mv ripple on top of signal even in 1GHz BW without any enhancements. With 200MHz BW limit we start to see it more clearly and even better with simple 20MHz BW limit in channel. You can see that in this case R&S 18 bit mode is performing similar to 12bit + 3.5 Bit ERES. That is partially because starting noise is slightly higher on R&S (1.5GHz vs. 1GHz BW+200MHz BW limit that I would use in this case anyways). After 4 bit enhancement (12+4=16Bit enhanced) you will get to point of diminishing returns, resolution wise. But it is still useful as a LP filtering. Like I said before, ERES has very similar performance to this R&S resolution enhancement function. But R&S developed a function a bit further so they also specify LP filtering BW which is very nice touch. I would say that this function on this R&S scope performs well in this regard. Best, |
