The Keysight InfiniiVision 3000A X-Series is a family of bench oscilloscopes built around MegaZoom IV smart memory technology. Positioned as oscilloscopes redefined, the series integrates an oscilloscope, digital channels, a built-in 20 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator, an integrated digital voltmeter, a frequency counter, and a protocol analyzer into a single instrument — the industry's first 6-instruments-in-1 integration. Every model carries an 8.5-inch WVGA display and is fully upgradable, including bandwidth.

Applications span embedded design with I2C, SPI, UART, and I2S serial buses; automotive and industrial work with CAN, LIN, and FlexRay; and aerospace and defense work with MIL-STD 1553 and ARINC 429. Segmented memory acquisition suits packetized serial buses, pulsed laser, radar bursts, and high-energy physics experiments. With the power measurement application, the series addresses switching power supply and power device characterization, while enhanced video triggering supports HDTV debug. A standard Educator's Oscilloscope Training Kit also targets undergraduate electrical engineering and physics instruction.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000-square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Holding inventory directly and verifying used units in-house means the instrument you order is on hand and ready to ship.

Brand Heritage

Keysight Technologies traces its test-and-measurement heritage to Hewlett-Packard, whose instrument business was spun off as Agilent Technologies in 1999. That measurement business was then established as Keysight Technologies in 2014.

Compare Other Models in This Series

The InfiniiVision 3000A X-Series brings Keysight's MegaZoom IV smart memory technology to a 2- or 4-channel bench platform that integrates six instruments in one: an oscilloscope, 16 digital channels, a 20 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator, a digital voltmeter, a frequency counter, and a protocol analyzer. Every model shares the 8.5-inch WVGA display and the greater-than-one-million-waveforms-per-second update rate.

The defining theme of the family is upgradability. Bandwidth, digital channels, WaveGen, memory depth, and measurement applications can all be added after purchase, so a unit configured today can grow with changing project needs — including bandwidth all the way to 1 GHz.

Each new model in the 3000A X-Series below is its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Select the model whose bandwidth, channel count, and memory configuration fit your application, and follow its link through to that listing.

Across the family, the models separate primarily by bandwidth and channel count. Bandwidth tiers run 100, 200, 350, and 500 MHz and 1 GHz, with each tier offered in 2- or 4-channel form and an additional +16 digital-channel MSO variant. Calculated rise time tracks bandwidth, from ≤ 3.5 ns at 100 MHz to ≤ 450 ps at 1 GHz, as the comparison table details.

Sample rate and memory also scale with the tier: 500 MHz and lower models reach 4 GSa/s half-channel, while 1 GHz models reach 5 GSa/s half-channel. Standard acquisition memory is 2 Mpts half-channel, expandable to 4 Mpts with the DSOX3MEMUP upgrade. The comparison table below lists each model's bandwidth, channels, sample rate, and rise time.

Additional differences in specifications beyond the few shown above are not listed here — see each model's full specifications below.

Accessories Supplied

• N2841A passive probe 150 MHz 10:1 attenuation, 1 per channel
• Localized power cord
• Soft copy Certificate of Calibration (CoC) with measurement results, 2-year calibration interval
• Educator's Oscilloscope Training Kit

Product Core & Specifications

Important: Maximum input voltage: 135 Vrms, 190 Vpk. Use this instrument only within its specified measurement category — not rated for CAT II, III, or IV, and no transient overvoltage allowed.

Important: Probing technology allows testing of higher voltages — for example, the included N2841A, N2842A or N2843A 10:1 probe supports testing up to 300 Vrms.

Important: The DSOX3MSO and DSOX3PERFMSO 16-digital-channel (MSO) upgrades are delivered as a license plus an MSO logic probe shipped separately.

Important: For bandwidth upgrades that require higher-bandwidth passive probes, the appropriate probes are included with the upgrade (DSOX3BW24 ships N2842A 300 MHz probes; DSOX3BW32 and DSOX3BW34 ship N2843A 500 MHz probes).

Important: A node-locked license for the BV0004B BenchVue Oscilloscope Control & Automation software can be redeemed at no additional cost for each Keysight InfiniiVision X-Series oscilloscope purchased after June 1, 2019.

Recommended pairing: the Keysight N2820A Series high-sensitivity current probe extends the instrument to 50 automated measurements for ultra-low current work, per the probe compatibility list.

ValueTronics supplies both new and used test and measurement equipment.
