Minimize the risk of launching products susceptible to bugs and failures with an oscilloscope that displays the truest, granular details. Built from the same high-performance standard set by the MXR A, the MXR B-Series boasts newer, hardware-accelerated technology that speeds up test time. In addition to faster hardware, the MXR B-Series includes standard features like Keysight’s state-of-the-art InfiniiScan Event Identification Software, a built-in, 50 MHz arbitrary waveform generator, and a 50 MHz frequency response analyzer. The automated analysis tools, extra-low, front-end noise, and uncompromised performance of the MXR B-Series enable you to test faster, shorten time to market, and design without compromise using an oscilloscope that delivers dependable results.
Newer architecture speeds up test execution and cuts design validation cycles.
State-of-the-art event identification software identifies intermittent signal anomalies.
