If you haven’t purchased an Agilent scope lately,
why should you consider one now?
If you’re like most engineers, you never know what your next project will demand from you.
You need an oscilloscope that can adapt to a wide variety of debug and test challenges.
That’s why we designed our new Infiniium 9000 Series oscilloscope to meet a full range
of needs.
First we built in the powerful features you’d expect in any Infiniium scope. Then we
engineered the scope for the broadest measurement capability, so it would be the most
indispensable tool in your arsenal.
There is no better way to experience
the superiority of the Infiniium 9000 Series
scopes than to see it.

It’s three instruments in one
1. Oscilloscope
High-performance scope channels ensure superior viewing of signals under test. All models incorporate a powerful, feature-packed Infiniium oscilloscope with responsive deep memory.
Up to 4 GHz bandwidth and 20 GSa/s high sample rates guarantee you’ll see a
precise representation of the analog characteristics of signals you’re testing.
Responsive deep memory
With standard 20 Mpts/ch, and up to 1 Gpts/
ch of memory, you can capture long time
periods while retaining fast sample rates.
Fast update rates mean your scope stays
responsive with deep memory on, ensuring
precise representation of analog signals.
Advanced triggering
Advanced triggers are essential when you are
investigating suspected problems. Infiniium
offers a full range of advanced triggers to
help you isolate and capture the condition
you need to characterize. The 9000 Series
simplifies trigger setups by using intuitive
dialog boxes with descriptive graphics.
Mask tests, histograms and a wide variety of functions such
as the gated FFTs in the above image provide deep signal
analysis.
Drag and drop measurements
It’s simple: drag an icon from the measurement bar and drop it on the cycle you want to
measure. You can make up to ten measurements on your waveforms. All of the measurements appear at the bottom of the display with
statistics and are color-coded to the channel
you are measuring.

It’s three instruments in one
2. Logic analyzer
MSO models add 16 high-speed timing channels with standard 128 Mpts digital memory, allowing you to retain fast 2 GSa/s sample rates
over long periods of time.
Use the timing channels to evaluate control signal relationships and data buses
up to 16 bits wide. Use symbols to more quickly interpret waveforms.
Digital and mixed-signal trigger
Trigger on and display individual
signals or buses. With precise
time-correlation between analog
and digital signals, confidently trigger across any combination
of analog and digital signals
Industry’s only segmented memory for both
analog and digital channels
Capture short bursts without consuming
memory during periods when the trigger
condition is not met. Agilent is the only
vendor that supports segmented memory
capture on both analog and digital channels.
simultaneously.
Designing with Altera or Xilinx FPGAs? Use the FPGA
dynamic probe for rapid internal FPGA measurements. Using
I²C, SPI, RS-232, or low- or full-speed USB? Use the digital
channels to acquire and decode these buses, preserving
analog channels for other time-correlated measurements.
Waveform and Listing Windows
View buses as waveforms or easily follow
events in the listing window expandable to
the entire display. A blue tracking marker
provides time-correlation between waveform
and listing displays.

It’s three instruments in one
3. Protocol analyzer
Does your design include a serial bus that is a key point for testing or debugging? Add protocol analysis capability to your scope for:
2
• CAN • FlexRay • I
• PCle • RS-232/UART • SATA • SPI • USB • 8B/10B
• digRF
C • JTAG • LIN • MIPI D-Phy
Quickly move between physical and protocol layer information using the time-correlated
tracking marker. Display protocol content using waveform symbols and the industry’s first
multi-tab protocol viewer. The packets tab shows a high level view of the packet over time.
Use any combination of analog or digital channels for serial protocol decode, with
up to four buses decoded simultaneously.
Protocol-level triggering makes it easy to
isolate events with pinpoint accuracy.
Header tab shows packets in a databook for
mat. Hovering on any tab reveals additional
detail.

Infiniium 9000 Series performance characteristics
Trigger modes
Edge (analog and digital) Triggers on a specified slope (rising, falling or alternating between rising and falling) and voltage
level on any channel.
Edge transition (analog) Trigger on rising or falling edges that cross two voltage levels in > or < the amount of time specified.
Edge transition setting from 250 ps.
Edge then edge (time) The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified time delay between 10 ns to 10 s, a rising or
(analog and digital) falling edge on any one selected input will generate the trigger.
Edge then edge (event) The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified delay between 1 to 16,000,000 rising or falling
(analog and digital) edges, another rising or falling edge on any one selected input will generate the trigger.
Glitch (analog and digital) Triggers on glitches narrower than the other pulses in your waveform by specifying a width less than
your narrowest pulse and a polarity. Glitch range settings equal pulse width settings
Line Triggers on the line voltage powering the oscilloscope.
Pulse width (analog and digital) Trigger on a pulse that is wider or narrower than specified.
4 GHz model Minimum detectable pulse width: 125 ps for analog channels, 1 ns for digital channels.
Pulse width range settings: 250 ps to 10 s for analog channels, 2 ns to 10 s for digital channels.
2.5 GHz model Minimum detectable pulse width: 200 ps for analog channels, 1 ns for digital channels. Pulse width
range settings: 350 ps to 10 s for analog channels, 2 ns to 10 s for digital channels.
1 GHz and 600 MHz model Minimum detectable pulse width: 500 ps for analog channels, 1 ns for digital channels. Pulse width
range settings: 700 ps to 10 s for analog channels, 2 ns to 10 s for digital channels.
Runt (analog) Triggers on a pulse that crosses one threshold but fails to cross a second threshold before crossing
the first again. Runt settings equal pulse width settings.
Timeout (analog and digital) Trigger when a channel stays high, low, or unchanged for too long.
Timeout settings equal pulse width settings.
Pattern/pulse range Triggers when a specified logical combination of the channels is entered, exited, present for a
(analog and digital) specified period of time or is within a specified time range or times out. Each channel can have a
value of High (H), Low (L) or Don’t care (X).
State (analog and digital)
Setup/hold (analog) Triggers on setup, hold, or setup and hold violations in your circuit. Requires a clock and data signal
on any two inputs (except aux or line) channels as trigger sources. Setup and/or hold time must
then be specified.
Window (analog) Trigger on entering, exiting, or inside specified voltage range
Serial (analog and digital) Requires specified serial software option, I
PCIe, MIPI D-Phy, generic 8B/10B
Zone-qualified Requires InfiniiScan software option. SW-based triggering across up to 8 user-drawn zones. For each
zone, user specifies “must intersect” or “must not intersect.” Zones can be drawn on multiple
channels and combined using Boolean expressions.
Pattern trigger clocked by the rising, falling or alternating between rising and falling edge of one channel.
