Discover the new oscilloscope series from Rohde & Schwarz.
The MXO4 Series combines outstanding performance with an optimal price-to-performance ratio.
With extremely high update rates of more than 4.5 million waveforms per second, you can view your signals faster than ever. Whether you’re working on hardware debugging, serial bus analysis, power analysis, EMI debugging, or power integrity verification—the MXO4 is designed for a wide range of applications.
Its 12-bit ADC ensures accurate measurements even at maximum sampling rates. Each channel comes with a standard memory depth of 400 Mpoints, expandable to 800 Mpoints. The highly accurate digital trigger technology—with a sensitivity of just 0.0001 div—helps you capture even the smallest anomalies. Combined with an intuitive touch interface and easy navigation, the MXO4 delivers a powerful package: see why this oscilloscope could be the right choice for you.
Below you’ll find a closer look at the main features.
The MXO4 oscilloscope captures, processes, and displays up to 4.5 million waveforms per second. This is made possible by a custom-designed integrated ASIC: the MXO-EP, which optimizes signal processing to deliver unprecedented update performance.
What sets it apart: even with automated measurements, FFTs, or cursor-based analysis active, the MXO4 maintains a consistently high update rate. Thanks to MXO-EP, you can count on smooth performance—even with deep-memory acquisitions.
The MXO4 features a true 12-bit A/D Converter, providing 4096 quantization levels—16 times the resolution of conventional 8-bit converters—for exceptional detail capture. Importantly, the ADC always operates in full 12-bit mode, even at the highest sampling rates.
For even greater detail, the MXO4 offers an HD mode with up to 18-bit resolution, allowing you to select the optimal balance between bandwidth and resolution. This means sharper waveforms and visibility into signal details that would otherwise be lost in noise. In addition, the MXO4 delivers the industry’s lowest intrinsic system noise—only 22 µV AC (rms) at 1 mV/div.
Memory depth determines how long an oscilloscope can record signals without compromising bandwidth or sampling rate. With deeper memory, you can maintain maximum performance even with slower timebase settings.
The MXO4 provides the industry’s deepest memory with 400 Mpoints standard per channel. Its segmented memory supports up to 10,000 segments. For extended acquisitions, memory can be expanded to 800 Mpoints (with 2 interleaved channels), enabling up to 1,000,000 segments and recording of as many as 1,000,000 waveforms.
Digital triggers offer significant advantages over traditional analog triggers by separating the acquisition and trigger paths. The patented MXO4 trigger system achieves an industry-leading sensitivity of 0.0001 div—up to 10,000 times more sensitive than other systems. This allows you to reliably isolate hard-to-find anomalies on the physical layer, even in the presence of larger signals—dramatically accelerating debugging and fault analysis.
You also gain full flexibility to configure trigger conditions, including trigger noise rejection. The MXO4 lets you automatically set trigger hysteresis or enter values manually—giving you far more control than analog trigger systems.
Modern instruments demand smart, efficient user interfaces—and the MXO4 delivers. With a learning curve of just 15 minutes, it’s designed for fast adoption. On its high-resolution 13.3" multi-touch display, even the smallest waveform details are clearly visible. Menus are logically arranged and avoid clutter, ensuring maximum screen real estate for your waveforms.
Unique in the industry, the MXO4 provides a customizable toolbar for quick access to frequently used functions. You can easily configure icons for cursors, measurements, spectrum view, and more—add, remove, or arrange them as you prefer. Remote control is also supported: mirror the oscilloscope display on a PC or mobile device and work with the same user interface you see on the instrument itself.
