Product overview

The R&S®MXO 5C is the compact member of the MXO 5 series. It uses the same core building blocks but drops the front panel display in favour of a 2U rack height and a low-power e-ink status screen, which makes it a fit for automated test equipment (ATE), rack integration and dense multi-channel applications. It is available with 4 or 8 channels and bandwidths from 100 MHz to 2 GHz, offers the industry-leading acquisition rate of 4.5 million waveforms per second, and is operated remotely over LAN through a web browser and a virtual front panel.

Key features

  • 12-bit ADC resolution, with 18-bit vertical resolution in HD mode
  • 500 Mpoints of standard memory depth per channel (upgradeable to 1 Gpoint)
  • Industry-leading waveform acquisition rate of 4.5 million per second
  • Spectrum analysis at 50,000 FFT/s
  • Zone trigger on analog, spectrum and math waveforms
  • The 8-channel model needs only 1500 cm³ and 23 W per channel
  • LAN remote operation through a built-in web browser and virtual front panel

Typical applications

  • Automated test equipment (ATE) and rack-integrated test platforms
  • Synchronous analysis of many signals at high channel density
  • Power integrity and three-phase power measurement
  • Serial bus debugging and compliance testing (automotive, aerospace, MIPI, USB, Ethernet)
  • Benchtop multi-channel applications where vertical space matters
