Rigol Rigol DS1104z vs Tektronix TDS2014c vs Agilent DSOX2012a Digital Oscilloscopes


 


Comparison of the Rigol DS1104z, Tektronix TDS2014c, and Agilent DSOX2012a Digital Oscilloscopes:


Rigol DS1104z comes with Rigol's "UltraVision" technology, allowing for Multi-Level intensity grading displays and Realtime waveform record and replay, as well as up to a 30,000 wfms/s update rate. This oscilloscope also comes with a 7in WVGA multi-levels intensity grading waveform display, a low noise floor with a dynamic range of 1mV/div to 10V/div, as well as a variety of math functions, a FFT function, and a variety of trigger functions.

Tektronix TDS2014c has 16 automated measurements and FFT analysis, built-in waveform limit testing, and many other features available in the TBS1000 series.

Agilent DSOX2012a comes standard with Agilent's MegaZoom IV custom ASIC technology to give the oscilloscope faster update rates and a deeper memory for longer capture time.
