MegaZoom IV smart memory technology enables uncompromised update rate
Traditionally, CPU processing was the major bottleneck for oscilloscope waveform update rate and responsiveness� Typically, the CPU
handles interpolations, logic channel plotting, serial bus decoding, measurements and more, and the waveform update rate drops
dramatically as these features are turned on�
The InfiniiVision 3000T X-Series requires minimum support from a CPU, as most core operations are handled by Keysight proprietary
technology, the MegaZoom IV smart memory ASIC� MegaZoom includes hardware serial decoders and hardware mask/limit testing
capability, plots analog and digital data directly to the display, supports GUI operation, and integrates additional instruments like the
WaveGen function/arbitrary waveform generator�
Figure 11� The 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes’ uncompromised responsiveness, speed and waveform update rate are enabled by the MegaZoom IV,
smart memory ASIC� The CPU is not used for core waveform operations�
