The Keysight Infiniium V-Series is a family of high-performance real-time oscilloscopes spanning 8 GHz to 33 GHz of analog bandwidth, available in DSO (4 analog channels), DSA (4 analog channels with bundled analysis software), and MSO (4 analog plus 16 digital channels) configurations. Every model in the family shares a common platform built around Keysight's Indium Phosphide front-end technology, a 12.1-inch capacitive touch display, a 500 GB removable solid-state drive, and Windows 7 64-bit running on an Intel Core i5 quad-core processor with 16 GB of DDR3 RAM.

The datasheet positions the V-Series for high-speed serial bus validation across emerging standards such as USB 3.1, PCI Express Gen 4, HDMI 2.0, SAS-3, and 100G Ethernet, along with DDR4 and LPDDR4 parallel-bus debug, wideband RF and spectral analysis of transients, and jitter characterization where sub-100 fs intrinsic jitter and 5.5+ effective number of bits matter. The MSO variants are specifically called out for DDR/LPDDR2, 3, and 4 protocol triggering, decode, and read/write separation.

ValueTronics International stocks, inspects, and ships test and measurement equipment from its 20,000 square foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. The Infiniium V-Series instruments listed on this page move through our in-house verification process before shipping, with condition documentation specific to the unit you receive. Because we operate the warehouse and the inspection bench under one roof — rather than drop-shipping or routing through a broker — we can verify configuration, options installed, and physical condition before the instrument leaves the facility, and we can answer specific questions about the unit you are quoted.

Brand Heritage

Keysight Technologies was spun off from Agilent Technologies in 2014, and Agilent was itself spun out of Hewlett-Packard's test and measurement business in 1999. The Infiniium oscilloscope product line traces directly through that lineage. Instruments and accessories carrying HP, Agilent, or Keysight branding share the same engineering heritage and are supported through current Keysight channels.

Compare Other Models in This Series

The Infiniium V-Series spans six bandwidth tiers — 8 GHz, 13 GHz, 16 GHz, 20 GHz, 25 GHz, and 33 GHz — and three model variants at each tier: DSO (4 analog channels), DSA (4 analog channels with the EZJIT Complete, Serial Data Analysis, and 100 Mpts memory bundle preloaded), and MSO (4 analog channels plus 16 digital channels). All variants share the same chassis, the same Indium Phosphide front-end technology, the same 80 GSa/s (2-channel) / 40 GSa/s (4-channel) maximum sample rate, and the same 2 Gpts maximum memory option.

The family is bandwidth-upgradable: any model can be moved up to a higher bandwidth tier or to the 33 GHz family maximum through a field or service-center upgrade. This means the V-Series can be acquired at the bandwidth needed today with a defined upgrade path if signal requirements expand later.

Each pre-owned V-Series model is listed on its own product page with its own pricing and availability. The comparison table below shows the bandwidth, sample rate, and channel-count differences across the family so the right tier can be selected for the measurement requirement at hand.

Bandwidth is the primary tier differentiator: 8 GHz, 13 GHz, 16 GHz, 20 GHz, 25 GHz, and 33 GHz are the available steps. In two-channel mode the full bandwidth of the tier is delivered. In four-channel mode, models from 20 GHz through 33 GHz operate at 16 GHz per channel; the 8 GHz, 13 GHz, and 16 GHz models deliver their full rated bandwidth across all four channels. Sample rate is uniform across the family at 80 GSa/s (2-channel) and 40 GSa/s (4-channel), and memory depth options (50, 100, 200, 500 Mpts; 1, 2 Gpts) are identical across all tiers.

Within each bandwidth tier, the variant choice — DSO, DSA, or MSO — determines what ships in the box rather than what the front-end can do. DSA adds EZJIT Complete jitter analysis, Serial Data Analysis, and 100 Mpts/channel memory as standard. MSO adds the 16 digital channels and the DDR/LPDDR protocol trigger and decode suite. The DSO is the base configuration; software and the MSO digital acquisition can also be added post-sale to a DSO via the documented upgrade options.

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