The LeCroy Waverunner-2 LT354 is a four-channel, 500 MHz digital oscilloscope and the newest member of the Waverunner-2 series. It is built to let engineers quickly view, measure, and evaluate signals accurately and reliably, combining the capture, viewing, and analysis of both simple and complex signals in one integrated system. The Waverunner-2 series was designed to save engineers valuable time in troubleshooting signals and general problem solving.
Within the series, the LT354 is aimed at capturing long, complex signals in a single shot and at tracking down timing and signal-integrity problems in high-speed designs. Tools such as JitterTrack and TrackView help trace timing and signal-integrity issues to their source, and the instrument supports the evaluation of critical timing parameters and crosstalk. Optional software packages extend it into power measurements, disk-drive and media development, wireless and network communications, and computer design.
ValueTronics has specialized in new and used test-and-measurement equipment since 1992, stocking and holding its own inventory in a 20,000 square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Because the equipment sits on our own shelves, we can stand behind what we ship: every pre-owned instrument is inspected and functionally verified in-house before it leaves the building, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received.
LeCroy Corporation, founded in 1964 and headquartered in Chestnut Ridge, New York, was acquired by Teledyne Technologies in 2012 and has since operated as Teledyne LeCroy.
