Siglent oscilloscope technology
The features that make Siglent scopes punch above their price.
12-bit HD resolution
A 12-bit ADC resolves 16× finer vertical detail than 8-bit scopes — ideal for power, ripple and small-signal work.
Fast capture (SPO)
High waveform-capture rates and intensity-graded display catch rare glitches and infrequent events.
Deep memory
Up to 2 Gpts of acquisition memory keeps a high sample rate over long time windows for serial and power analysis.
Serial decode & MSO
Trigger and decode I²C, SPI, UART, CAN/CAN-FD, LIN, FlexRay and more, with optional 16-channel logic (MSO).
Built-in instruments
Many models add an arbitrary waveform generator, digital voltmeter, frequency counter and Bode-plot analysis.
Touch & remote control
Large capacitive touchscreens, plus LAN/USB with a built-in web server and SCPI for automated test.
Built for every measurement
Frequently asked questions
Choosing a Siglent SDS oscilloscope.
What is the difference between an 8-bit and a 12-bit (HD) oscilloscope?
The number of bits sets the vertical resolution. A 12-bit HD oscilloscope resolves 4096 levels versus 256 for an 8-bit scope — 16× finer — so it shows small details such as ripple, noise and distortion riding on a larger signal far more clearly. Siglent's HD families (SDS800X HD up to SDS7000A) use 12-bit ADCs.
Which Siglent oscilloscope should I choose?
Match bandwidth, channels and resolution to your work. For education and general bench use, the SDS1000X-E or 12-bit SDS800X HD are ideal; for R&D, the SDS2000X HD / SDS2000X Plus; for higher speed, the SDS3000X HD and SDS5000X; and for signal integrity or RF, the SDS6000A/L and the 8 GHz SDS7000A flagship.
How much bandwidth do I need?
As a rule of thumb, choose a bandwidth at least five times the highest frequency component you need to measure — so for clean digital edges, allow several times the clock rate. Siglent scopes span 50 MHz to 8 GHz, so there is headroom for most applications.
Do Siglent scopes support serial decoding and mixed-signal (MSO)?
Yes. Most current models trigger on and decode I²C, SPI, UART, CAN/CAN-FD, LIN and more, and many accept an optional 16-channel logic probe for mixed-signal (MSO) debugging alongside the analog channels.
Can I control and automate the scope remotely?
Yes. Current Siglent oscilloscopes include LAN and USB with a built-in web server and a full SCPI command set, so you can view the screen in a browser and integrate the scope into automated test systems.
Are they available with warranty and calibration in Europe?
Yes. As the official Siglent distributor for Europe (JRSE B.V., Helmond) we ship from EU stock with a 3-year warranty and optional ISO / DKD calibration, backed by local application support.
