Benchtop Oscilloscopes
The full OWON benchtop oscilloscope range — from the €169 single-channel AS201 and €179 SDS200 compacts to 12-bit high-resolution ADS models and 500 MHz flagships, all in stock with EU shipping.
Professional OWON benchtop oscilloscope category introduction
A benchtop oscilloscope is the heart of every electronics workbench: a mains-powered instrument with its own display, front-panel controls and BNC inputs, ready the moment you switch it on. OWON’s benchtop range spans nine series — from ultra-affordable education scopes to 12-bit high-resolution, n-in-1 modular instruments and 500 MHz flagships — so there is a right-sized model for every bench and budget.
- Education & starter benches: the SDS1000 series (20–200 MHz, from €190), the compact SDS200(S) touch-key scopes (100 MHz, 1 GS/s, 20M record, from €179) and the single-channel AS201 (€169) cover teaching labs and first benches.
- High resolution: for cleaner traces than a standard 8-bit scope, choose 12-bit — the compact ADS900A (125/250 MHz, from €375), the economical XDS2102A (€410) — or the 14-bit XDS3000-AE models.
- High bandwidth: the 4th-generation ADS3000 multifunction series runs to 350 and 500 MHz with up to 2.5 GSa/s sampling; the ADS3000A adds 12-bit resolution across the same 100–500 MHz range.
- All-in-one instruments: SDS200 “S” versions add a built-in 25 MHz signal generator; the XDS3000 “n-in-1” platform can be ordered with a 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator, a 3¾-digit multimeter, Wi-Fi, a touchscreen and a battery built into the same chassis.
- 4-channel work: four-channel models are available in almost every family — SDS1104 (€280), ADS3x04(A), ADS914A/924A and the XDS3000-E series.
- Flagship performance: the XDS4000 series is the fastest bench scope OWON makes — 350 or 500 MHz at 5 GSa/s with a 400M record, 600,000 wfms/s and a 10.4-inch multi-touch screen, with a 50 MHz generator and a Bode plotter built in, from €1,592.
- Highest dual-channel bandwidth: the dual-channel XDS3000 line runs to 300 MHz and 2.5 GSa/s (XDS3302) and includes the 14-bit XDS3202A — the fastest 2-channel scopes OWON makes below the ADS3000 flagships.
Benchtop oscilloscopes from OWON
Every OWON benchtop oscilloscope here is a genuine unit with EU shipping and manufacturer warranty. Below is the range by series, from entry level to flagship — each series page lists all models with full specifications and pricing. Not sure where to start? Pick by bandwidth and resolution: 8-bit is fine for general work, 12- and 14-bit models resolve small signal detail far better, and the “multifunction” series can add a signal generator, multimeter and serial decoding to replace several bench instruments at once.

Questions about OWON benchtop oscilloscopes
Technical selection guidance for choosing the right bench scope.
Which OWON benchtop oscilloscope should I choose?
Start from your signals: for education and general electronics up to audio/embedded work, the SDS1000 or SDS200(S) series (20–200 MHz, from €179) are ideal. If you measure small signal details — ripple, sensors, audio distortion — choose a 12-bit model such as the ADS900A or XDS2102A. For four-channel timing work pick the SDS1104 or an XDS3000-E. If you want one box that also carries a signal generator, a multimeter and a battery, the n-in-1 XDS3000 range covers 60–300 MHz in 2- and 4-channel form. For high bandwidth up to 350–500 MHz, the ADS3000 or 12-bit ADS3000A series is the flagship choice.
What is the advantage of a 12-bit or 14-bit oscilloscope over 8-bit?
The ADC resolution sets how finely the vertical axis is divided: 8-bit gives 256 levels, 12-bit gives 4096 and 14-bit gives 16384. A 12- or 14-bit scope therefore shows small details on large signals — power-supply ripple, sensor noise, audio distortion — that disappear in the quantisation of a standard 8-bit scope. OWON offers 12-bit resolution from €375 (ADS912A), one of the most affordable ways to get high-resolution measurement.
Which OWON benchtop scopes have a built-in signal generator or multimeter?
The SDS200 “S” versions (SDS210S, SDS215S, SDS220S) include a built-in 25 MHz generator with sine, square, ramp and pulse outputs plus 16 arbitrary waveforms. The whole XDS3000 “n-in-1” platform goes further: a 25 MHz 1- or 2-channel arbitrary waveform generator, a 3¾-digit multimeter with data logging, a Wi-Fi module, a capacitive touchscreen and a 13,200 mAh battery are all factory-fitted options in the same chassis, and the multifunction ADS3000/ADS3000A platform supports similar expansion — one instrument replacing several on a crowded bench.
What do the A, S, E and AE suffixes mean on OWON oscilloscopes?
They mark platform variants. “A” is the high-resolution version: ADS3000A and ADS900A models have 12-bit ADCs (the XDS2102A is also 12-bit). “S” on the SDS200 series adds the built-in 25 MHz signal generator. “E” marks the economical 8-bit build of a platform (XDS3202E, XDS3000-E), and “AE” combines both: the enhanced XDS3000 four-channel models with a switchable 8/12/14-bit ADC, to which a multimeter and waveform generator can be added as built-in options.
Do OWON benchtop oscilloscopes support serial-bus decoding?
Yes. On the XDS2102A and on the XDS3000-E units we stock, CAN, I2C, SPI and RS232 decoding is already factory-installed. Across the wider XDS3000 range decoding is supplied as factory-fitted kits — RS232 + I²C + SPI as one, CAN as a second — so tell us which buses you work with and we build the instrument accordingly. Check the individual product pages of the other series for their current decoding and interface options.
Not sure which benchtop oscilloscope you need?
Tell us your application, bandwidth and budget and we’ll recommend the right model and confirm availability.
