Entry-Level Benchtop Oscilloscope Series

OWON SDS1000 Series

OWON’s best-selling entry benchtops: an ultra-thin 2- or 4-channel scope with a big 7-inch display, up to 200 MHz bandwidth and 1 GSa/s sampling, FFT and 30 auto-measurements — from €190.

OWON SDS1000 series benchtop oscilloscope

The bench scope every workbench starts with

The OWON SDS1000 series packs a real benchtop oscilloscope — 20 to 200 MHz bandwidth, up to 1 GSa/s real-time sampling and a big 7-inch colour display — into an ultra-thin, 1.1 kg housing that leaves your bench space free. Choose four 2-channel models or the 4-channel SDS1104.

Despite the entry-level price, you get 30 automatic measurements, FFT and full waveform math, cursor measurements with auto-cursors, a built-in frequency counter, and USB host + device ports for saving waveforms to a memory stick or controlling the scope from a PC with SCPI and the free OWON software.

Why the SDS1000

Real benchtop performance, a big screen and a tiny footprint — at a price that puts a scope on every bench.

2 or 4 channels, 20–200 MHz

Four 2-channel models from 20 to 200 MHz, plus the 4-channel SDS1104 (100 MHz) — all with 1 GSa/s sampling except the entry SDS1022.
