GW Instek GDS-3502 oscilloscope

Note: the displayed product in the image is the four-channel 3504 model.

The GW Instek GDS-3502 is a two-channel 500 MHz oscilloscope with a sampling rate of 4 GSa/s. It features a large screen and VPO (visual persistence oscilloscope) technology, which provides a clear and detailed display of signals. The unique split-screen function allows each input channel to be controlled and viewed independently with its own settings and waveform display.

With the GDS-3000 series oscilloscopes, the input impedance can also be changed to either 50 Ω, 70 & or 1 MΩ. However, the bandwidth at 70 Ω impedance is limited to 150 MHz.

Connectivity

The GDS-3000 series oscilloscopes have a USB-port at the front and rear to ensure easy access to stored data. The integrated SVGA video output allows the displayed images to be transmitted to a monitor or external projector. Furthermore, the oscilloscopes have RS-232 and LAN interfaces. It is also possible to print the data directly on printers that support PictBridge.

Model overview

The 3502 and 3504 differ only in the number of channels.
