The collection of tools, features and functions packed into this small 6" deep instrument with large 10.4" touch screen make the WaveRunner 104MXi a truly unique oscilloscope. With a maximum sampling rate of 10 GS/s (5 GS/s per channel) you can be confident in all your measurements knowing that even the fastest signals in your device are being captured. High sample rate is important for fast signals and edges but without long memory this rate cannot be maintained for long captures. The 25 Mpts (12.5 Mpts/Ch) fast memory guarantees maximum sample rate for 2.5 ms.

Beyond the impressive specifications, the WaveRunner 104MXi provides a set of tools like no other oscilloscope. Use WaveScan to search through a single capture for a rare event, or scan through live data acquisitions. The LabNotebook report generator lets you quickly share findings with others and even allows you to make hand written notes directly on top of the signals. With the advanced math and measure tools you can look at every aspect of your waveforms and understand the distribution of measurements with histograms of up to 2 billion events, trends of up to 1 million measurements and a track function that shows variations in signals over time. Adding to the flexibility of the WaveRunner MXi is the ability to create your very own customer or proprietary measurements, math functions, filters or scripts and run them directly in the oscilloscope having results displayed in real time.

LeCroy뭩 proprietary method of data transfer and processing permits wave shapes to be captured and processed 10?00x faster than other oscilloscopes. The result is better capability to perform advanced WaveShape Analysis, and faster debug.

With WaveRunner MXi, you뭠l notice the difference when capturing long records and making measurements, calculating math or FFTs, or performing non-time domain analysis using statistically-based Histograms or parameter-based Tracks.

For instance, in a long 12.5 Mpts capture where it is desired to measure the periodicity of a signal, WaveRunner MXi will quickly capture and display thousands of signal periods, measure each period, calculate statistics, and display a Histogram of the measurement values. Other oscilloscopes struggle to calculate a single period value (instead of thousands) and cannot provide a Histogram view of the statistical data.

Similar speed is achieved during simple operations, such as subtracting two channels (when a differential probe isn뭪 available), or computing FFTs with high-frequency resolution (and, hence, long memory).

The LabNotebook feature provides a report generation tool to save and document all your work. Saving all displayed waveforms, relevant settings, and screen images is all done with a single button press, eliminating the need to navigatemultiplemenus to save all these files independently.

Easy report generation helps you share your findings and communicate important results. All screen images saved can be annotated with freehand notes using the stylus and touch screen, and then included in your report. Reports can be saved to the hard drive for later use, saved to a USB memory device or even emailed directly from the oscilloscope to you inbox. With the built-in Flashback functionality LabNotebook lets you recall your settings fromany report and use them to reproduce previous measurements.

Most oscilloscopes contain only a few simple math functions to subtract waveforms or to perform coarse resolution FFTs on short record length acquisitions. Or, they provide long memory, but limited ability to process the memory and perform WaveShape Analysis that leads to detailed understanding and faster debug.

WaveRunner MXi oscilloscopes contain dozens of standard math functions, and powerful capabilities, such as long memory FFTs, Trending, Tracking, Sparsing, Interpolation, a variety of Persistence Views, user customized math and measurements (MATLAB, Mathcad, or Visual Basic formats), and numerous other specialized capabilities (optional Application Packages). The toolset is rich and deep, and sure to solve any complex problem.

The WaveRunner MXi oscilloscope provides a multitude of basic and advanced (SMART) triggers to meet any need. Advanced triggers isolate specific events of interest, and (when combined with long memory) provide a complete view of the signal activity around that event. WaveRunner MXi excels in this regard.

Trigger on what you expect (widths, glitches, video, logic patterns, etc.) and also trigger on unusual signals (dropouts, intervals, runts, slew rates). LeCroy뭩 exclusion triggering can exclude normal signals and capture only the abnormal ones, speeding up the debug of your circuits and systems. Trigger on signals down to 1 ns in width (500 ps for width and glitch trigger), or use an "A" condition to qualify a "B" trigger.

The best trigger won뭪 find all unusual events뾞 more powerful capability is sometimes needed. WaveScan provides the ability to locate unusual events in a single capture (i.e., capture and search), or "scan" for an event in many acquisitions over a long period of time. Select from more than 20 search modes (frequency, rise time, runt, duty cycle, etc.), apply a search condition and begin scanning. Since the scanning "modes" are not simply copies of the hardware triggers, the utility and capability is much higher. For instance, there is no "frequency" trigger in any oscilloscope, yet WaveScan allows "frequency" to be quickly "scanned" for. This allows the user to accumulate a data set of unusual events that are separated by hours or days, enabling faster debugging.

When used in multiple acquisitions, WaveScan builds on the traditional LeCroy strength of fast processing of data. A LeCroy X-Stream oscilloscope will quickly "scan" millions of events, looking for unusual occurrences, and do it much faster and more efficiently than other oscilloscopes can.

WaveScan in WaveRunner 104MXi also contains ScanHisto and ScanOverlay capability. Found events can be overlaid in a ScanOverlay view to provide a quick and simple comparison of events. In addition, measurement-based scanning modes (like the frequency example given above), permit ScanHistograms to show the statistical distribution of the found events. These analysis tools simplify understanding and enable faster debug.

Complete I²C, SPI, UART, RS-232, LIN, FlexRay, and CAN serial triggering, including powerful conditional data triggering, allows quick and easy isolation of specific events on your embedded controller. Trigger on DATA in specific locations of long I²C EEPROM reads, or trigger on sensor values outside of a certain range. Intuitive, color-coded decode overlay helps you understand your serial data signals quickly. Search for data patterns, or view the protocol data in a table. Export table data to Excel.
