The XDS series is the new product line of Owon based on the succesful SDS series. The performances are outstanding, with a memory depth of 20 Megapoints and 55.000 waveforms per second waveform capture rate.
The XDS2102A has a 12 bit ADC instead of the more common 8 bit ADC. Only improving the resolution would not be as valuable if Owon would not have improved the noise floor as well. And Owon did not forget this. For this scope the vertical sensitivity begins at 1mV, instead of 5mV, and goes up untill 10V/div.
SCPI is also supported for remote operation and reading out values. The scope also has standard multi-trigger support.
Difference between 8-bit and 12-bit ADC
In the video below you can see the difference between a 8-bit converter and a 12-bit analog-digital converter.
