The Agilent Infiniium Oscilloscope Model 8000 Series at a Glance
Ease of use with high performance
The Agilent Technologies Infiniium oscilloscopes
combine unprecedented ease-of-use with high-
performance digitizing oscilloscope functionality
to simplify your design and analysis measurement
tasks.
•Traditional oscilloscope front-panel interface
provides direct access to the controls needed
for most troubleshooting tasks.
•Touchscreen graphical user interface with
menus, windows, dialogs, and toolbars
provides easy access to dozens of
configuration and analysis tools, ensuring you
can set up and make the most complex
measurements.
•Agilent DSO8064A offers 4 channels, 4 GSa/s
sampling rate in 2-channel mode, 2 GSa/s
sampling rate in 4-channel mode, 600 MHz
bandwidth. The MSO8064A also includes 16
digital channels.
•Agilent DSO8104A offers 4 channels, 4 GSa/s
sampling rate in 2-channel mode, 2 GSa/s
sampling rate in 4-channel mode, 1 GHz
bandwidth. The MSO8104A also includes 16
digital channels.
Display shows waveforms and graphical user
interface
•Graphical interface allows direct interaction with
waveforms, including drag-and-drop
positioning and instant waveform zoom
•Touchscreen display allows oscilloscope
operation without an external pointing device
•Waveforms displayed in color, making
correlation easy
•Current configuration parameters displayed near
the waveform display and are color-coded to
make identification easy
•Graphical interface menus and toolbars simplify
complex measurement setups
Horizontal controls set sweep speed and position
•Main sweep speeds from 200 ps/div to 20 s/div
•Delayed sweep speeds from 1 ps/div to main time
base setting
•Intensified waveforms on main sweep window
make it easy to see what will appear in delayed
sweep window
Acquisition and general controls start and stop
the oscilloscope and do basic setup
•Run and stop controls for continuous or single-
shot acquisitions
•Clear display before one or more acquisitions
•Default setup and Autoscale set initial
configuration
Hard disk drive and USB port for saving and
restoring setups and measurement results
•Store measurement displays for inclusion in
reports and test setup guides
•Store oscilloscope setups to repeat tests another
time
•Hard disk stores oscilloscope operating system
Trigger setup controls set mode and basic
parameters
•Select Edge, Glitch, or Advanced Modes
•Choose input source and slope
•Set coupling for trigger
•Use graphical user interface to simplify
configuration of pattern, state, delay, violation,
and video triggers
•Use auxiliary trigger to increase triggering
flexibility
Vertical controls set input coupling, impedance,
attenuation, and position
•AC or DC input coupling
•1 MΩ or 50 Ω input impedance
•Input attenuation adjustable from 2 mV/div to 1 V/
div (plus 2 V/div in 1 MΩ)
•Color-coded knobs make it easy to find the
controls that affect each waveform
Marker and quick measurements help measure
waveform parameters
•Waveform markers A and B to check voltage and
∆-time at any point on the displayed waveform
•Quick Meas executes up to four predefined
measurements instantly
Service Policy
The service policy of this oscilloscope requires
replacing defective assemblies. Some
assemblies can be replaced on an exchange
basis. Items such as the vertical attenuators,
which are subject to wear and tear based on
frequency of use, are a maintenance item that
may need occasional replacement.
