HD4096 TECHNOLOGY - 12 BITS ALL THE TIME
Teledyne LeCroy high denition 12-bit oscilloscopes
use unique HD4096 technology to provide superior
and uncompromised measurement performance:
12-bit ADCs with high sample rates
High signal-to-noise ampliers
Low noise system architecture (to 1 GHz)
Oscilloscopes with HD4096 technology have higher resolution
than conventional 8-bit oscilloscopes (4096 vs. 256 vertical
levels) and low noise for uncompromised measurement
performance. The 12-bit ADCs support capture of fast signals
and oscilloscope bandwidth ratings up to 1 GHz, while 5 GS/s
sample rate ensures the highest measurement accuracy and
precision. The high performance input ampliers deliver pristine
signal delity, and the low-noise system architecture provides
an ideal signal path to ensure that signal details are delivered
accurately to the oscilloscope display – 16x closer to perfect.
16x more resolution
HD4096 technology provides 12 bits of
vertical resolution — 16x more resolution than
conventional 8-bit oscilloscopes. The 4096
discrete vertical levels reduce the quantization
error compared to 256 vertical levels. This
improves the accuracy and precision of the
signal capture and increases measurement
condence.
