Siglent SDS2000X HD Series Oscilloscopes: High-Resolution Performance for Next-Generation Testing

As technology advances, engineers face increasing challenges in testing complex, high-speed digital devices. Signals are becoming more intricate, and isolating anomalies requires precision tools capable of delivering wide dynamic range and exceptional signal clarity.

An 8-bit resolution acquisition shows a blurred saturation voltage trace with details buried in quantization noise but the 12-bit oscilloscope clearly shows details of the saturation voltage.	When measuring an 8 V signal, the smallest detectable voltage variation is 1.95 mV, compared with 31.3 mV on an 8-bit ADC

The SIGLENT SDS2000X HD Series Oscilloscopes, available in 100 MHz, 200 MHz, and 350 MHz bandwidths, deliver superior accuracy and insight for advanced testing environments. These oscilloscopes are designed to reveal the smallest signal details — even in the presence of large amplitude signals.

Unmatched Signal Clarity with 12-Bit High Resolution

At the heart of the SDS2000X HD series lies a powerful 12-bit ADC front end with a 2 GSa/s sampling rate and an exceptionally low noise floor. Compared to traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes, this results in 16 times higher signal resolution, allowing engineers to visualise fine waveform details and reduce quantisation noise for more accurate and reliable measurements.

With higher vertical resolution, users can confidently analyse even the most minute signal changes — making the SDS2000X HD an indispensable tool for power electronics, medical devices, and high-precision system design.

Advanced Performance and Deep Memory

The SDS2000X HD series combines speed, power, and usability:

• Up to 200 Mpts/ch record length for deep memory analysis
• Four analogue channels plus optional 16 digital channels for mixed-signal applications
• SIGLENT’s SPO technology with a maximum waveform capture rate of 100,000 wfm/s (up to 500,000 wfm/s in Sequence Mode)
• 256-level intensity grading and colour temperature display for clear visualisation of waveform dynamics

Precision Triggering and Smart Analysis Tools

An innovative digital trigger system ensures high sensitivity and low jitter, supporting a wide range of trigger modes — including serial bus triggering. Engineers can take advantage of advanced measurement and math functions, serial decoding, and an optional 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator for complete signal analysis flexibility.

Engineered for Accuracy and Efficiency

Whether you’re developing power supplies, refining medical instrumentation, or working on precision control systems, the SIGLENT SDS2000X HD 12-bit Oscilloscope offers the accuracy, resolution, and reliability you need to meet demanding test requirements.
