Description

The SDS6054A oscilloscope has a bandwidth of 500 MHz and 4 channels with 5 GSa/s sampling rate each. The SDS6054A uses Siglent's SPO technology and has a maximum waveform capture rate of up to 170,000 wfm/s (up to 750,000 wfm/s in sequence mode), a 256-level intensity gradation display function and a colour temperature display mode. The oscilloscope also features an innovative digital trigger system with high sensitivity and low jitter. The trigger system supports several powerful trigger modes, including serial bus triggering. With tools such as history waveform recording, search and navigation functions, mask test, bode plot, power analysis and eye/jitter analysis, extensive waveform recordings can be captured, stored and analysed. On the software side, a host of measurement and maths functions, options for a 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator and serial bus decoding and triggering are on board.

The large 12.1-inch capacitive touchscreen supports multi-touch gestures and has a user-friendly UI design that can significantly improve operational efficiency. The device also supports wireless operation via the supplied mouse and offers web remote control via LAN.

Product highlights

Search and navigate

With the Siglent SDS6054A, events can be found in a data set and in history based on user-defined trigger conditions. Navigate through the events in the browsers, play history frames or continuously move the delay position for long data sets (useful in zoom view).

Sequence mode

The waveform stores the segmented data in multiple memory segments (up to 80,000). Each segment stores a triggered waveform together with the information from the dead time. The interval between segments can be as short as 1.3 µs. All segments can be replayed with the history function at any frame rate.

History mode

History mode records up to 80,000 triggered waveforms (frames). This is done continuously in the background so that the history waveforms can be played back at any time to find and analyse past events. Serial decoding, zoom and cursor measurements can be used.

Parameters & Parameter Statistics

The parameter measurements include 4 categories: Vertical, Horizontal, Miscellaneous and Channel Delay with a total of more than 50 different types of measurements. Measurements can be performed within a specific "gate period". Measurements on maths, reference and history frames are supported.

Advanced maths functions

Hardware accelerated FFT up to 8 Mpts. This function provides high frequency resolution with a fast refresh rate. The FFT function also supports a variety of window functions so that it can adapt to different spectrum measurement requirements. Three modes (Normal, Average and Max Hold) can fulfil different power spectrum observation requirements. Automatic peak detection and markers are supported.

Hardware based high speed mask test

The Siglent SDS6054A utilises a hardware-based mask test function that can make up to 18000 pass/fail decisions per second. It is easy to generate user-defined test templates with which the signal progression can be continuously compared. The failed frames can be automatically saved as history frames or screenshots, making them suitable for long-term signal monitoring or automated testing of production lines.

Up to 500 Mpts/channel storage depth

With the Siglent SDS6054A's hardware-based zoom technology and a recording length of up to 500 Mpts, users can select a slower time base without compromising the sampling rate. Fast zooming in allows users to focus on desired measurement ranges.

Eye/Jitter analysis function

The Siglent SDS6054A supports eye and jitter analysis measurements. It can automatically extract the embedded reference clock from serial data and generate the eye diagram. The Siglent SDS6054A allows the measurement of multiple eye/jitter parameters and supports mask testing on eye diagrams.

Up to 170,000 wfm/s signal acquisition rate

The Siglent SDS6054A offers a signal acquisition rate of up to 170,000 wfm/s and achieves a rate of up to 750,000 wfm/s in sequence mode.

Serial bus decoding

Display bus protocol information in tabular form. Supports I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN, CAN-FD, FlexRay, I2S, MIL-STD-1553B and SENT.

Zone trigger

The Siglent SDS6054A offers a zone trigger function for advanced triggering.

Mask editor

The integrated mask editor helps to create customised masks.
