content: Any one have any info on this what it seems an 8ch scope from Iwatsu?Edit - I just found my answer, it seems I was not searching in the official Iwatsu YouTube channel, which the top link seemed at first to be.. Interesting how it will compare with the other new 8ch scopes (at lower bandwidths) from Tek. and Keysight. Yokogawa (first one I think) and Lecroy also have 8ch scopes.

content: I found a news release on it and it appears to be brand new to the market.Quoted prices converted to USD:8 Channel $22,150.954 Channel $11,557.02https://www.iwatsu.co.jp/newsrelease/2020/201130.htmlDigital oscilloscope Wideband 1GHz, high resolution 12bit, maximum 8 channels DS-8000 series 6 models releasedNovember 30, 2020Iwatsu Electric Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kugayama, Suginami-ku, Tokyo, President: Toru Nishito) will release the DS-8000 series of digital oscilloscopes (maximum frequency band 1 GHz, vertical resolution 12 bits, maximum input 8 channels).In recent years, devices such as power supplies, inverters, and non-contact power supplies incorporated in car electronics and home appliances have been reduced in size and loss by utilizing next-generation power devices such as SiC and GaN. In order to make these evaluations accurately, it is necessary to accurately measure high-voltage and large-current signals at high speed with high resolution. To meet these needs, we have developed the DS-8000 series of digital oscilloscopes. In addition, there is high demand for high-speed, high-resolution, multi-channel measurement in a wide range of fields such as mechatronics and physical measurement, and it is useful in various measurement scenes.Product nameDigital oscilloscope DS-8000 seriesMain specifications and features of the DS-8000 series-Display: 15.6-inch Full HD Withhigh visibility, you will not miss the details of the waveform.-Easy-to-use user interfaceIntuitive touch screen and buttons and knobs allow comfortable operation.-High-speed startup for about 30 secondsAfter turning on the power, you can start using it without the stress of standby time.-Number of analog channels: Select from 2 types of 4CH / 8CHIdeal for measurement of three-phase inverters and car electronics field equipped with multiple sensors.-Frequency band: Select from 3 types of 1GHz / 500MHz / 350MHzIdeal for designing and debugging high-speed signal circuits.-Maximum sampling speed: 5GS / sHigh-speed signals and steep signal changes can be reliably captured.-Vertical resolution: Alwayscaptures minute changes contained in 12-bit (equivalent to 16-bit in high-resolution mode) large-amplitude signals.-Maximum memory length: 120M points as standard equipment Achieveslong-term waveform observation without slowing down the sampling speed.-High-speed data transfer:Optimal for high-speed transfer of waveform data for simulation and improvement of tact time of production equipment about 15 times compared to our conventional products.DS-8000 series model listfrequency bandNumber of analog channels Maximumsamplingspeed Maximum memory length1GHz 8CH 5GS / s 120M points4CH500MHz 8CH 5GS / s 120M points4CH350MHz 8CH 5GS / s 120M points4CHstandard price4CH model 1,200,000 yen (excluding tax) ~8CH model 2,300,000 yen (excluding tax) ~Release dateNovember 30, 2020Start shippingMid December 2020Contact■ CustomerSales Headquarters Second Sales DepartmentTEL 03-5370-5474E-mail: info-tme@iwatsu.co.jp■ PressPublic Relations Group , Corporate Planning DepartmentTEL: 03-5370-5112E-mail: pr@iwatsu.co.jp

content: Quote from: DEV001 on December 03, 2020, 11:22:08 pmAre these starting prices for the lowest bandwidths? If so, it will need to offer lots of software/probe features to be able to compete with the rest on the market right now.
