What is the difference between an
equivalent time sampling oscilloscope
and a real-time oscilloscope?

Application Note
Introduction

In the past, deciding between an equivalent time sampling oscilloscope and a real time
oscilloscope was a matter of determining your bandwidth requirements; but with today's high
performance instruments that distinction isn't as clear. This document will discuss how each type
of scope samples the incoming waveform and explain the trigger requirements. A summary
detailing the advantages of each scope is provided at the end.
