Specifications
Specifications are valid under the following conditions: The instrument is within the calibration period, has been stored between 0 and 50°C for at least 2 hours prior
to use, and has been powered on and warmed up for at least 40 minutes. The specifications include the measurement uncertainty, unless otherwise noted.
Specifications: All products are guaranteed to meet published specifications when operating temperatures from 5 to 45°C, unless otherwise noted.
Typical: Performance deemed typical implies that 80 percent of the measurement results will meet the typical published performance with a 95th percentile
confidence level at room temperature (approximately 25°C). Typical performance is not warranted and does not include measurement uncertainty.
Nominal: The expected performance or design attribute

About SIGLENTSIGLENT is an international high-tech company, concentrating on R&D, sales,
production and services of electronic test & measurement instruments.

SIGLENT ﬁrst began developing digital oscilloscopes independently in 2002.
After more than a decade of continuous development, SIGLENT has extended
its product line to include digital oscilloscopes, function/arbitrary waveformgenerators, RF generators, digital multimeters, DC power supplies, spectrumanalyzers, vector network analyzers, isolated handheld oscilloscopes,
electronic load and other general purpose test instrumentation. Since its ﬁrst
oscilloscope, the ADS7000 series, was launched in 2005, SIGLENT has become
the fastest growing manufacturer of digital oscilloscopes. We ﬁrmly believethat today SIGLENT is the best value in electronic test & measurement.
