B&K Precision's model 2125A is a dual trace oscilloscope
with a delayed sweep that offers high performance at a low
price. Most competitor's entry level oscilloscopes have a
20 MHz bandwidth, while B&K Precision's models 2125A
has a bandwidth of 30 MHz. This oscilloscope is built by
and backed by B&K Precision, a company that has been
selling reliable, durable, value priced test instruments for
over 50 years.
■ Delayed sweep in 23 steps
■ Built in component tester for capacitors, inductors,
diodes, transistors, zener diodes
■ 23 step time base to 0.1ms/div
■ Deluxe handle/tilt stand
■ cUL certified
