Frequently Asked Questions

How does the MSO2204X compare to the Keysight InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series?

The MSO2204X matches the bandwidth (200MHz) of the top models in this Keysight range, but with significantly greater memory depth (100Mpts vs 1Mpt), faster sample rate (5 GSa/s vs 2 GSa/s), and higher waveform update rates (500,000 wfms/s vs 200,000 wfms/s) at a competitive price point. Additionally, it includes many software features as standard that would require paid upgrades with Keysight.

What is the real advantage of the 100 Mpts memory depth versus the Keysight's 1 Mpt?

The 100x larger memory depth allows you to capture much longer signal sequences without sacrificing sampling rate. This is critical when debugging complex systems where you need to see both a long time window (to catch infrequent events) and high-resolution details (which require high sampling rates). For example, when analyzing a serial bus communication, you can capture thousands of data packets while still maintaining the resolution needed to see signal integrity issues.

How does the touchscreen interface improve workflow compared to traditional knob-based oscilloscopes?

The MSO2204X's 10.1" touchscreen interface significantly reduces setup time and simplifies complex operations. You can place markers, adjust trigger points, and zoom waveforms with natural touch gestures. Menu navigation is intuitive and requires fewer button presses than traditional interfaces. Engineers typically report 30-40% faster test setup times when switching from knob-based oscilloscopes to the MSO2204X's touch interface.

Can the MSO2204X perform the same measurements as Keysight InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series oscilloscopes?

Yes, the MSO2204X includes all standard measurements found in Keysight InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series, including amplitude, frequency, rise/fall time, pulse width, and many others. It also offers comprehensive math functions, FFT analysis, and serial protocol decoding. In fact, with our free software promotion, you'll have access to even more analysis capabilities than a standard Keysight 2000 X-Series instrument.

What protocol decode capabilities are included with the free software promotion?

The promotion includes ALL protocol analysis packages: I²C, SPI, UART/RS-232 (standard), plus CAN, CAN-FD, LIN, FlexRay, SENT, and Audio bus analysis (I²S, LJ, RJ, TDM). This comprehensive set covers automotive, embedded systems, and consumer electronics applications. Each protocol decoder provides color-coded packet information, automatic data interpretation, and searchable packet content.

Can the MSO2204X perform frequency response analysis (Bode plots)?

Yes, the MSO2204X includes Bode plot functionality when you use the built-in dual-channel AWG. You can characterize filters, amplifiers, and power supply control loops with frequency sweeps from 10Hz to 25MHz. The system automatically plots gain and phase margins, critical for stability analysis in feedback systems. This functionality alone would require expensive additional equipment with competing oscilloscopes.

How does the 5 GSa/s sampling rate benefit digital circuit analysis?

The higher sampling rate (5 GSa/s vs. Keysight's 2 GSa/s) provides 2.5x better time resolution, which is crucial for accurately capturing fast digital transitions, glitches, and timing violations. For example, in a 200MHz digital system with edge rates of 1-2ns, the MSO2204X can place 5-10 sample points on each edge, providing the detail needed to identify reflections, ringing, and other signal integrity issues that might be missed with lower sampling rates.

What warranty is included?

The MSO2204X comes with our exclusive 3+2 Coverage: 3 years standard warranty with an additional 2 years available with free product registration at uni-trendus.com/pages/uni-trend-product-registration. This comprehensive coverage includes parts and labor, providing you with exceptional long-term protection for your investment.

Are the free software options really permanent?

Yes! Unlike competitors who often charge subscription fees or require renewals, all software options included in this promotion are permanently unlocked. There are absolutely no subscription fees, no renewal costs, and no recurring charges of any kind. Once unlocked, these features are yours to use forever.

Is shipping really free?

Yes! We offer free shipping to all addresses within the Continental United States (CONUS).
