MXR404B - Design Without Compromise

The MXR404B real-time oscilloscope is a powerful tool designed to meet the evolving needs of engineers and designers. With 4 channels and a 4 GHz bandwidth, it offers performance that empowers robust design development. The MXR404B's bandwidth, sample rate, waveform update rate, and channel count are all uncompromised, ensuring that there are no surprises when you use your scope.

One of the key features of the MXR404B is its ability to reduce test time with hardware-accelerated, automated analysis. It comes equipped with automated analysis tools like the standard InfiniiScanEvent Identification Software and Fault Hunter applications. These tools are designed to reduce debug time, speed up analysis application test times, and ultimately reduce time to market.

The MXR404B is not just a tool for today's challenges, but also for those of the future. It is fully upgradeable to 6 GHz and can be expanded to 4 +16 channels. If you need more features and capabilities in the future, you can add them to your scope. This means that the MXR404B grows with your test challenges, allowing you to make confident measurements today and have confidence in your next project too.

Finally, the MXR404B is designed to display the truest representation of your signal. It features a low-noise front end, low intrinsic jitter, low trigger jitter, unprecedented timebase accuracy, and unmatched ENOB. These features ensure that you see all of the signal details you need to verify your design. With the MXR404B, you can test, verify, and debug with confidence.

Every model of the MXR B-Series integrates a 10-bit ADC, offering a simultaneous 16 GSa/s sample rate on all channels. The effectiveness of a high-resolution ADC relies on a low-noise front end that accommodates extra quantization levels. Keysight's low-noise front end features custom ICs, such as the 130 nm BiCMOS IC, which includes analog filters chosen by the user and bandwidth enhancements accessible through a software license.

• 4 times more vertical resolution than 8-bit oscilloscopes
• Up to 16 bits with high-res mode
• As low as 43 μV of noise, 9.0 bits system ENOB with hardware filtering

Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) Feature

The Infiniium MXR B-Series oscilloscope offers a unique high-resolution feature. Unlike previous models that automatically set high-resolution bits without user input, this oscilloscope allows you to choose ADC bits or a system bandwidth, and the scope optimizes based on your selection. This ensures that your data resolution only changes when you specifically request it. The ADC resolution and bandwidth limit filters work together to deliver the most accurate measurements.

Every Infiniium MXR B-Series oscilloscope is factory-calibrated to 6 GHz and uses brickwall filters to reach the bandwidth of each model. Therefore, the noise and ENOB data mentioned earlier are relevant from 20 MHz to the bandwidth of your specific oscilloscope model when you use the built-in global bandwidth limit feature.

Conduct powerful RF analysis using up to 8 phase-coherent channels, all concurrently. Simultaneously digitally down-convert data across all 8 channels with an analysis bandwidth reaching 2 GHz. The RTSA perspective in the Infiniium MXR B-Series offers spans ranging from 40 MHz to 320 MHz.

InfiniiScan Advanced and Zone Triggering

This standard feature enables the formation of a three-phase trigger to detect signal integrity problems that are not identifiable by hardware triggering in your electronic designs. This advanced software sifts through thousands of captured waveforms every second to assist in isolating signal irregularities, thus conserving valuable diagnostic time. Initiate the trigger by sketching regions on the screen for a signal to intersect or bypass, or based on quantified parameters.

Save Time with the Fault Hunter Application

Fault Hunter is a cutting-edge, specialist system for examining digital systems. It autonomously assesses your signal's traits against criteria set by the user, rapidly identifying and storing errors for your examination. It's adaptable, and you can specify the test duration from 60 seconds to 48 hours. Initiate your device under test on a Friday afternoon, and come back on Monday morning to a comprehensive test report for review, with billions of tests executed.
