Rigol Scopes
Overview on Min/Max -Sample Rate and –Memory on
analog Channels
The following table give a quick overview about the maximum available sample rate and
memory depth on all Rigol Oscilloscopes and the minimum sample rate and minimum
memory depth per channel (all available channels active)

*With one channel active and triggered on the non-active the sample rate will be 500MS/sec
Special case MSO1xx4Z
The MSO1000Z Series architecture is different from all the other Rigol MSOs so we have to take a
careful look at it.
What is the main difference? Only one ADC and one memory is used for all channels. All other Rigol
Scopes share one ADC and one memory between each bank (a bank consists of 2 Channels). A
consequence of this is, each additionally activated channel changes Z-sample rate and memory.
Activating the digital channels 0-7 will disable the analog CH. 4. Activating digital channels 8-15 will
disable the analog Ch. 3. Please find below a table which shows the dependencies:
