Models 2540 and 2542 dual channel Digital Storage Oscilloscopes deliver an unmatched combination of performance and value. Analog style controls combined with an Auto measurement function make these oscilloscopes easy to use. Advanced features such as FFT function, digital filtering, wave form recorder, delayed sweep/ zoom, mask testing and automatic measurements provide you with powerful tools to debug your circuits.

The oscilloscopes come with PC Software that lets you easily capture, save and analyze waveforms and measurement results. Unlike other DSOs in this price category, each model includes two 150 MHz high performance passive probes that will not limit the bandwidth of your measurement system.

The 2540 and 2542 are both ideal oscilloscopes for use in education and training, design and debug, service and repair.
