The Rigol VS5042 is a PC based two channel digital storage oscilloscope. The VS5042 offers a real-time sample rate of up to 400 MSa/s and up to 40 MHz of bandwidth.
The Rigol PC-based oscilloscope has powerful functions: Up to 1M memory depth, with Ultrazoom features, it can enable users to observe details while surveying the whole waveform; 7 trigger modes, adjustable trigger sensitivity, USB + LAN interfaces and other traditional functions of RIGOL oscilloscopes. The quality of the Rigol Oscilloscopes is comparable to Agilent and Tektronix oscilloscopes.
