GPS-2000HD
12-bit ADCs and a low-noise front end (~70 µVrms @ 200 MHz) reveal signal detail that 8-bit scopes miss, with sampling to 2 GSa/s and record length up to 100 Mpts.
12-bit resolution
16× the vertical detail of a standard 8-bit scope.
Up to 2 GSa/s
Capture fast transients with confidence.
Up to 100 Mpts record length
Headroom for long, low-frequency captures.
Up to 120,000 wfm/s
On the 200 MHz models; 500,000 in sequence mode, with 256-level intensity grading.
Where the GPS-2000HD excels
Built for work where 8-bit resolution simply isn’t enough to see what’s happening.
Automotive & ECU diagnostics
CAN & LIN decode with deep memory for engine control unit work.
Embedded design & debug
Optional 16-channel digital input extends mixed-signal circuit work.
Lab & production test
Mask testing and 50+ measurement parameters streamline quality inspection.
Power supply & ripple
12-bit resolution and a ~70 µVrms front end resolve small ripple on large rails.
What 12-bit and 100 Mpts actually look like
Two captures that show why resolution and memory depth matter more than a headline bandwidth figure.
12-bit high resolution
The same signal captured at 8-bit and at 12-bit. The extra vertical resolution separates real signal detail from quantisation noise, which is what makes accurate power supply ripple measurement and engine control unit diagnostics possible.
Long memory depth
Up to 100 Mpts means you can capture a long, low-frequency or transient event and still zoom in without losing detail. More samples retained also means the accuracy and stability of measurement results improve.
A full analysis bench, not just a scope
Serial decode, power analysis, loop response and mixed-signal work are all handled on the same instrument.
Multiple triggering & decoding
Edge, slope, delay, setup/hold, runt, window, pattern, video and Nth edge, plus serial bus triggering. Decodes I²C, SPI and UART for embedded work and CAN and LIN for automotive, presenting bus traffic as a readable table rather than raw edges.
Powerful MATH & 2 Mpts FFT
Four independent math traces and a hardware-accelerated 2 Mpts FFT, which gives fine frequency resolution with a fast refresh rate. Five window functions, normal, average and max-hold modes, automatic peak detection and markers, plus a user-defined formula editor.
Efficient power analysis
The power analysis option, enabled by a software licence and used with suitable voltage and current probes, analyses 12 measurement types including power quality, current harmonics, inrush current and transient response — removing the manual configuration and formula work these measurements normally require.
Loop response & Bode plot
Bode plot comes as standard. Paired with the isolated signal generator option or an arbitrary waveform generator, it produces a frequency response curve for the device under test, giving gain and phase at every frequency point for stability assessment.
16-channel logic analysis
The optional 16-channel logic probe adds 16 digital channels without giving up any analogue capability, so mixed-signal acquisition happens on one instrument and analogue-to-digital timing problems can be traced end to end.
Touchscreen & remote control
A 7″ capacitive touchscreen with multi-touch gesture support and a redesigned interface speeds up day-to-day operation. Also accepts mouse control, and the full instrument can be driven remotely from a browser over LAN.
