CHICAGO, March 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Newark element14, a business of Premier Farnell (LSE:pfl) and the leading distributor of electronic components and engineering solutions in the Americas, announced today it has stock of Agilent Technologies' four new 1-GHz oscilloscopes, which have been added to its award-winning InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series.

The DSOX/MSOX 1-GHzscopes are offered at prices starting at what Agilent says is typically charged for models with half the bandwidth. The combination of a higher bandwidth at a lower price point has been the top customer-requested enhancement for this scope family.  Agilent's 3000 X-Series has already been well-received for its combination of performance, value and innovative new features like WaveGen, which integrates fixed-function and arbitrary waveform stimulus with oscilloscope response measurements. Continuing with unique Agilent oscilloscope innovations, Agilent also announced today a new integrated 3-digit voltmeter option to its entire lineup of InfiniiVision 2000 and 3000 X-Series oscilloscopes.

An article on determining how much bandwidth is required for projects, and how to know when it is time to 'move up' to a higher bandwidth, can be viewed at http://www.newark.com/agilent-technologies. The full Agilent Technologies offering, available for same-day shipping, is also available at this microsite.
