Because of an application-specific integrated circuit with a data processing rate of 200 GB/s, the R&S MXO 4 series can achieve the world’s fastest real-time update rate of more than 4.5 million acquisitions per second, according to the company. A 12-bit analog-to-digital converter operates across all the instrument sample rates with an 18-bit vertical-resolution architecture. The R&S MXO 4 series also features a standard acquisition memory of 400 megapoints on all four channels and the lowest noise and largest offset range in its class: ±5 V with a scaling of 500 μV/div. Once only available in more costly higher-performance oscilloscopes, the digital trigger comes standard in the new series. The trigger sensitivity of 1/10 000 division enables users to isolate difficult-to-find small physical layer anomalies in the presence of large signals. The oscilloscopes in the R&S MXO 4 series are the first to perform 45 000 FFTs/s.

The Python-based interface provides intuitive tools for specifying multichannel signals with precise timing control. LabOne Q users can program large setups in Python as a single machine and transform complex quantum circuits into simple code, which can easily be reused. Using sections, users can group pulse patterns across signal lines. To express all levels of timing consistently, the sections support looping, sweeping, and averaging structures. Although users have complete low-level access to the instruments, the software streamlines and automates time-consuming tasks such as generating and uploading waveforms, synchronizing pulses between multiple instruments, and optimizing instrument settings, which can help maximize computational duty cycles. Upgrading or scaling up a laboratory setup requires only a drop-in replacement in the code.

It enables data transmission greater than 400 GB/s per lane in intensity-modulation and direct-detect formats and greater than 1.6 TB/s per carrier in coherent optical communications. The M8199B AWG is suitable for high-speed research experiments using multilevel pulse- and quadrature-amplitude and other proprietary modulation formats at symbol rates approaching 200 GBaud. Users conducting physics, chemistry, and general-purpose electronics research can generate any arbitrary waveform that can be mathematically described, including the ultrashort pulses, wideband RF pulses, and chirps needed for applications such as chemical reactions, elementary-particle excitation, and quantum effects.
