MegaZoom Deep Memory
With 2 MB of MegaZoom deep memory
behind every channel, 54600-Series
scopes give you deep-memory capture
without the sluggish response and
complex operation you’ve had to
tolerate with other deep-memory
scopes. And unlike the alternatives,
MegaZoom deep memory is not a
special mode; it operates with the same
familiar controls you use for regular
scope measurements. That means it's
always available to help you do a better
job finding details buried in complex
signals, discovering anomalies in the
absence of good trigger events,
correlating high-speed digital control
signals with slower analog signals and
capturing infrequent events.
The dilemma of having to do two
captures to get a long time capture or
to see detailed resolution is solved with
MegaZoom deep memory as you can
have both with a single measurement.
Deep memory means that the sample
rate can be kept high even when you
capture long time periods. You’ll have
a hard time finding another scope that
easily lets you collect 10 milliseconds
of data with the ability to see
5 nanosecond details like you can with
MegaZoom deep memory.
Thanks to multiple processors
optimized for the task of signal
acquisition, storage and display, the
new 54600-Series scopes are the only
deep-memory scopes that respond
instantly to your control inputs, and
have fast, responsive displays and easy-
to-use pan and zoom. Compare them to
other scopes in this price range – only
the 54600-Series gives you long time
capture and detailed resolution with
fast, easy MegaZoom pan and zoom.
Revolutionary high-definition display
When you combine MegaZoom deep
memory with a patented high-definition
display system, you get an accurate and
responsive "window into your world".
The MegaZoom deep memory is
mapped into 32 levels of gray scale on a
display which has superior horizontal
resolution. And because the screen
update rate is more than 25 times faster
than typical digital scopes, you get a
responsive display that reflects changes
in your waveform instantaneously – so
you see a more realistic representation
of your signals.
This revolutionary design gives you
more insight into your designs than
ever before. With deep memory and a
high-definition display system, there is
less chance to miss a narrow
occasional transient, less chance to
miss a glitch or distorted edge that
impacts circuit operation, and less
chance to miss all those subtle details
that can take weeks to find with a
traditional scope.

The bright dot on the
high definition display
is a distortion in 1 of
the 1,500 pulses
captured in this single
shot measurement.
Simply dial in for a
closer look using
MegaZoom pan and
zoom, and you’ll see
the details that would
have escaped other
scopes, such as the
distortion in this
square wave.
This deep memory
and display system is
not a complex special
mode, either. It is
available on every
measurement pass
at full speed.
