      The best part about that brilliant slice in time is that Shariar was being sincere with his statement. xD I must turn his reaction into a .gif! The entire world needs that man's expression in their "tool-kit" of communication! I hope Microsoft catches on and integrates that response into their OS whenever someone clicks something they shouldn't. While it's true that a picture is worth a thousand words, a .gif (a repeating sequence of pictures) is worth an eternity of words! ∞

      @@sibalogh Of course that's why he gave the "Or Not!" Face after Shahriar told the viewers they'd be happy to send people a demo unit! xD Unintentional comedy is the best comedy! I asked to be sent a demo unit to aid in my efforts to debug the blinking LED Arduino project I'm struggling with. They never responded back, but I'm still hopeful that my request will be fulfilled! xD
      On a serious note, being able to see an in-depth look into cutting-edge technology by true experts in their domain is amazing! Videos that bring equal access to technology that ordinary individuals wouldn't have access to is what makes these videos priceless. This is what the internet was designed for! ~

    I love that the video presenter will hop in middle conversation to explain something to the audience, and the engineer explaining everything is like "yes..." or "exactly..." In the engineer's mind, probably thinking "is this guy an alien, he knows what my next thought is, but is able to explain it better regarding this million dollar oscope that he has only seen today for the first time... wait...whats going on here? Am I being punked?" Seriously Mr. Video Presenter guy, I truly hope you have a very well paying job somewhere because you are insanely smart and well versed in explaining things. I would sit in to watch one of your lectures if you were a professor! Thumbs up!

    Very nice; really inspiring stuff! LeCroy scopes are underrated, but they're pretty fantastic. I've recently used some of the newer ones and have a much older 2GHz LeCroy scope at home. It's funny to see how many features and mechanisms of the newer scopes originated from the older ones. For example - the math "channel" chaining (combining multiple math operations using multiple channel inputs), sample interleaving (my scope uses 16x 1GS/sec ADCs, in groups of 4 per channel, with the ability to interleave them all for the 16GS/sec rate), sinx/x being off by default, device names like MAMs, display options like multiple grids and trace zooms, measurement group names, trend options + cursors, etc etc. All of those things are available on my ancient scope but in a much more primitive form of course.
    Many hobbyists probably get annoyed at peoples' fixation on scopes, but in truth they're at the heart of complex electronic design, being tools to verify your circuit and develop new and innovative techniques. Trial and error is a necessary part of engineering, and sometimes it's much better to see what's happening rather than strictly theorizing about it. The real world often imposes issues that don't come to light until you test. To that end, scopes are a bit like a window to the soul of electronics as well as other scientific processes that can be observed electronically.
    Another great brand that I hope you get a chance to interact with is Rohde and Schwarz. They're known for their VNAs of course and spectrum analyzers but their RTO scopes are excellent as well and have a lot of very unique features.

Really good to see things being manufactured in the US too. You may not expect that there would be many private individuals that have the ability to buy this sort of thing, but Markus Persson (aka "Notch" the author of Minecraft - sold to Microsoft for for $2.5bn) bought himself a new 'scope last year as a present to himself.

    Great - as some other people dream of a Porsche or so, now I can dream of such a great instrument. Wonderful to see the factory. I have actually two LeCroy Scopes, one I bought many many years ago (still works) with 150 MHz costs a fortune at that time. A new one which I work now is WaveSurfer 400MHz, also some years old now. But to reach the GHz region I still have to use some very old sampling scopes.

That is only for high end labs and similar that have already bought some high end LeCroy scopes before and have them in the their business, so they can test a new scope out before they guarantee buy some. Its absolutely not for the individual that just want to tinker with one a little and don't have any plan what so ever to buy one, so don't think anything else.

    Excellent video, and glad to learn a bit about how super fast scopes are made, especially compared to your recently released 110 GHz UXR, which has a totally different front end. A bit disappointing to see LeCroy's 65 GHz RF front end so messy and lossy. The Phase Matrix collaboration could have been a bit more polished. Nonetheless, I'm glad to see LeCroy show us this scope's dirty laundry. Most professionals never get to see the inside of a modern instrument in fear of invalidating the calibration and warranty.

    What I notice, is that then it was doing just 240 S at small time span, it was updating measurements about 100 times per second (wave form captures). But when it was increased to 12kS, it actually went faster to about 3000 times per second. Weird! Also waveform on a scope is updating maybe only 2 times per second. I guess, it is actually analysing every sine wave cycle to build all measurements (rise, fall, instantenious frequency approximation, duty etc, levels) from single waveform. FFT measurements are little bit slower, with just few full computations per second, but that is reasonable anyway. I wish they used a GPU or FPGA card to speed it up further. :)

    If so, clearly the other two would've been Tektronix and Agilent (Keysight).
    But worldwide I'd think also Rohde & Schwarz?
    Or maybe Tektronix doesn't offer such broadband scopes?

    Very fascinating, there must be a ton of engineering in there...Don't know much about the HF part, but I guess downmixing a (potentially) 30GHz Bandwidth signal can be challenging (intermodulation and linearity,yuk)
    The DSP side has to be crazy too, only the processing and upconverting 3 80GSPS signal to 240GSPS...
    BUT, what do you actually use this thing for? There is no application nowadays with bandwidths over 300MHz and carriers over 5GHz (except satellites, ok). 60GHz are still in research as far as i know.
