Rohde & Schwarz HMO Max! - Digital Oscilloscope Package

High sensitivity, multi-functionality and a great price – that is what makes the R&S®HMO1002 digital oscilloscope so special. From embedded developers to service technicians to educators – with its wide range of functions, the R&S®HMO1002 addresses a broad group of users. Advanced, powerful technology in a fanless design meets the high requirements of today‘s customers. The R&S®HMO1002 digital oscilloscope includes a wide range of upgrade options, providing true investment protection for the future.

The R&S®HMO1002 digital oscilloscope from the Rohde & Schwarz Value Instruments product range features a high waveform update rate and high vertical sensitivity, and is available with bandwidths of 50 MHz, 70 MHz and 100 MHz. The fanless instrument offers a sampling rate of 1 Gsample/s and a memory depth of 1 Msample.

Like all R&S®HMO oscilloscopes, the R&S®HMO1002 includes the mixed signal function as standard. The separately available R&S®HO3508 logic probe is not coupled to a specific instrument and can be used with all R&S®HMO oscilloscopes.

For communications between embedded systems and the environment, the R&S®HMO1002 includes hardware-based signal triggering and decoding for all common protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN and LIN). This option can be activated with an upgrade voucher at any time.

The integrated pattern generator for generating protocol messages at up to 50 Mbit/s is ideal for embedded users. In addition to using predefined messages, developers can program their own signal patterns for supported serial protocols. The integrated three-digit digital voltmeter enables service technicians to simultaneously perform voltage measurements on both analog channels with two values each.

The function generator that generates different types of signals with frequencies up to 50 kHz is useful in educational settings. Trainees and students can use the R&S®HMO1002 to learn basic measurement tasks. In education mode, the convenience functions can be switched off.

Thanks to 128K test points and analysis functions in the frequency domain, the R&S®HMO1002 keeps pace with significantly larger oscilloscopes. The time domain signal, measurement window, FFT analysis range and measurement result are displayed on a single screen, which makes it easier to measure the spectra.

The R&S®HMO1002 offers time domain, logic, protocol and frequency analysis in a single instrument and is a member of the Rohde & Schwarz family of scope-of-the-art oscilloscopes.

50 MHz, 70 MHz or 100 MHz

Depending on your requirements, the standard R&S®HMO1002 bandwidth can be upgraded from 50 MHz to 70 MHz or 100 MHz. This is done with upgrade vouchers which can be purchased at the dealer either together with the instrument or anytime thereafter.

• h6The upgrade voucher HV572 allows the basic 50 MHz instrument to be upgraded to a bandwidth of 70 MHz.
• h6Voucher HV512 increases the bandwidth from 50 MHz to 100 MHz.
• h6If an instrument has initially been upgraded to 70 MHz, the voucher HV712 enables you to upgrade it at any time to 100 MHz.

Always a MSO

Although it is unusual for this instrument class, the standard R&S®HMO1002 model is equipped with a mixed signal functionality with no software option necessary to unlock it. Analog and digital signals can be measured and analyzed simultaneously. A real life example is the integration of ADCs (analog digital converter) or DACs (digital analog converter). In this case, the mixed signal technology allows users to determine latency periods by means of a simple cursor measurement. Therefore a MSO allows developers to devote their full attention to the circuit without having to waste energy on the measurement setup.

The active logic probe R&S®HO3508 is available separately and is not linked to a specific instrument. It can be used with all R&S®HMO oscilloscopes.

Serial Bus Analysis

I2C, SPI, CAN or LIN – in terms of interaction with the outside world for embedded systems, it is safe to say that these are the most commonly used communication protocols. The R&S®HMO1002 oscilloscopes offer you hardware accelerated signal triggering and decoding for all of these protocols. You can upgrade your instrument via software license keys with those functions required to develop your application:

• h6HV110: Analysis of I2C, SPI and UART/RS-232 signals on analog and logic channels
• h6HV111: Analysis of I2C and UART/RS-232 signals on all analog channels
• h6HV112: Analysis of CAN and LIN signals on analog and logic channels

Serial bus trigger types:

• h6I2C: Start, Stop, ACK, nACK, Address/Data
• h6SPI: Start, End, Serial Pattern (32Bit)
• h6UART/RS-232: Startbit, Frame Start, Symbol, Pattern
• h6LIN: Frame Start, Wake Up, Identifier, Data, Error
• h6CAN: Frame Start, Frame End, Identifier, Data, Error

Functions for everyday use

Pattern Generator

Are you working on a distributed project, the interface defi nition has been completed but the prototype hardware has yet to be implemented? The R&S®HMO1002 pattern generator includes a tool for freely programmable 4-bit wide bus signals which allows you to emulate a sensor signal, for instance, to continue your work.

• Generate protocol telegrams at speeds of up to 50 Mbit/s
• Use predefi ned signal patterns: I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN
• Create your own patterns tailored to your needs
• Use the pattern generator as counter: a clock for your circuit with up to 25 MHz

Function Generator

Select the signal type suitable for your scope of application. The various basic types with frequencies of up to 50 kHz not only assist trainees and students with their measuring tasks, they also support technicians in the audio fi eld with their assessments of fi lters and passes.

• The function generator offers all common basic waveforms up to 50 kHz
• Available waveforms: Sine, square wave, pulse, triangle and ramp
• In tandem with the education mode which allows you to deactivate the automatic measuring functions for instruction and demonstration purposes, this will get you a powerful all-in-one instrument

Digital Voltmeter (DVM)

The three-digit digital voltmeter is also a standard feature which makes the work of service technicians in particular easier. Voltage measurements can be performed simultaneously for both analog channels. Integrated into a single compact device it allows you to keep your workplace tidy.

• Perform measurements simultaneously on both analog channels, with two freely defi nable parameters each
• These options are available: DC, DCrms, ACrms, Crest Factor, Vpp, Vp+, Vp-
• You decide about the position of the values on the screen

Component Tester

Our time proven component tester will also be at your side. Two measuring frequencies with 50 Hz or 200 Hz are provided to support your potentially tedious search for faulty components. And since a picture truly does say more than a thousand words, or rather individual values, you will be able to tell at a glance if your error analysis is on track.

Frequency Analysis

Due to the outstanding FFT functionality of the R&S®HMO series oscilloscopes signals can also be analysed in the frequency domain with up to 128 Kpoints. Additional practical tools such as cursor measurement as well as peak-detect-functions are also available. They allow engineers to complete their analysis significantly faster, also in the frequency domain.
