Rohde & Schwarz MXO 3 Oscilloscope: Fast, Precise and Compact
The Rohde & Schwarz MXO 3 series once again raises the performance bar in the mid-range oscilloscope category, focusing on three core user benefits: speed, precision, and compactness.
1. Capture every fault and anomaly
When measuring, the usual goal is simple: find issues fast and catch anomalies the moment they appear. The MXO 3 digital oscilloscope helps you uncover even the subtlest details.
- With the currently class-leading update rate of up to 4,5 million waveforms per second, you gain unparalleled statistical probability of capturing rare, transient events, while simultaneously eliminating "blind time".
- The MXO 3 oscilloscope achieves up to 99% signal capture in real-time.
- Triggering: Built on an advanced architecture, it offers ultra-fast trigger rearming (21 ns) and zone triggering.
Whether you are dealing with high-speed digital signals, switching transients in power electronics, or EMI/EMC glitches, the capacity to capture extensive waveform data during measurement and testing is an invaluable asset.
2. Resolve the smallest signal details
Debugging modern mixed-signal designs requires a clear vision of small-signal behaviour, even in the presence of large amplitudes. The MXO 3 delivers exceptional visibility even in such scenarios.
- Native 12-bit vertical resolution across all sampling rates.
- 18-Bit HD Mode: Hardware-accelerated HD (high-definition) mode further increases resolution and helps isolate tiny signal components that would otherwise be masked by noise.
| TIP: High resolution is particularly useful when measuring small signal perturbations within large-amplitude waveforms. The low-noise signal path ensures that what you see is truly what’s happening. |
3. Boost efficiency with integrated tools
The MXO 3 benchtop oscilloscope is designed with maximum efficiency in mind. It combines several professional instruments into one compact unit, saving space and budget while remaining ideal for both lab and field use.
- It is the most compact 4-channel oscilloscope in its class.
- It boasts high computing power in both time and frequency domains with a hardware-accelerated acquisition speed of 50,000 FFT/s.
- Optional features such as 16 digital channels (MSO), a 50 MHz arbitrary waveform generator (AWG), and numerous protocol decoding and triggering options further extend the instrument's usability.
Alongside the 4-channel model, the 8-channel MXO 38 is also available – a genuinely unique option in its class. Paired with bandwidth upgrades from 100 MHz up to 1 GHz and an intuitive 11,6" full-HD touchscreen, it makes for a remarkably capable tool for debugging, testing, and measuring electronic systems, from embedded designs through to power supplies.
The MXO 3 is a high-performance, versatile digital oscilloscope bringing previously unavailable advanced features to the mid-range category. It’s built to tackle demanding tasks in R&D, automotive, aerospace, and production testing.
How to choose your oscilloscope
“Start by deciding whether you need the 4-channel model or if the 8-channel version makes more sense for your work. You can begin with the 100 MHz bandwidth and bump it up to 1 GHz later with a simple software upgrade. The add-on features work the same way – just enable what you need, when you need it. MSO, AWG/generator, extra memory, serial-bus decode, power analysis – there’s plenty to choose from. The most convenient option is the PK1 application bundle. It brings every add-on together in one discounted package and lets you tap into the full capability of the MXO 3 from day one,” says Martin Brestovič, Product Manager at SOS electronic.
