6 GHz, High-Definition Oscilloscope
Portable Design News, Wednesday July 09, 2008
LeCroy Corporation has announced the launch of the WavePro 7, the first product series in the new Zi Family of oscilloscopes. The launch represents the first deployment of LeCroy’s next-generation chipset and latest streaming architecture, X-Stream II, allowing the WavePro 7 to deliver raw performance, speed and analysis capabilities unmatched in the industry.
The WavePro 7 oscilloscope is the only complete debug solution with up to 6 GHz of bandwidth available. LeCroy claims that new X-Stream II proprietary architecture delivers 10 to 20 times faster response rates, with long memory handling in a new industrial design.
The WavePro 7’s advanced industrial design incorporates an industry-first 15.3 inch, 16:9 high definition display equipped with a touch screen. Equipped with the industry’s most extensive toolbox, the new scope can solve electronic design problems within minutes instead of hours and can be extended to an integrated second display in order to expand the oscilloscope’s workspace. The WavePro 7’s removable front panel allows engineers to place the control-pod next to the circuit under test. LeCroy’s new serial interface bus, LSIB, enables data to be transferred 10-100 times faster than any other method. In addition, TriggerScan and WaveScan, special modes for finding rare events, shorten the time to debug a new design.
LeCroy also launched a new line of serial data analyzers, SDA 7, and disk drive analyzers, DDA 7, which feature the same speed, power and performance capabilities as the WavePro 7 Series.
