The Siglent SHS806 is a 60MHz handheld, two-channel digital oscilloscope for viewing electrical signals and has a 6,000-count multimeter mode for measuring AC and DC voltage. The oscilloscope has a real-time sample rate of 1GS/s and a record length of 2Mpts for acquiring detailed waveforms. Four math functions plus FFT (fast fourier transform), and automatic and cursor measurements allow an in-depth analysis of waveforms. Edge, Pulse, Video, Slope, and Alternative triggers allow isolation of specific signals. The oscilloscope's automatic triggering recognizes signal patterns and optimizes triggering, timebase and amplitude settings. The oscilloscope has a recorder that captures up to 18 hours of waveforms.

Additional specifications include a rise time of 5.8ns. The unit has a 5.7" color TFT-LCD. The oscilloscope has a USB host port for storing data on a 4GB-maximum flash drive and a USB device port for connecting to a compatible PC. Operating menus and help display in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Arabic, French, German, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and Italian languages. The unit operates on a rechargeable battery pack or a 100 to 240V AC, 50/60Hz adapter/charger (both included). It meets CAT II 300V and CAT III 300V safety standards.

H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.

Oscilloscopes are electrical testing devices used to verify the functionality of an electrical signal generator. Oscilloscopes measure an electrical signal over time, and display the waveform signals in a visual graph. The waveform shows the sweeps (or refresh) of voltage on a vertical (Y) axis, and can display time on a horizontal (X) axis. Details of a waveshape demonstrate the signal over time. Oscilloscopes can display in a digital or analog view. An analog oscilloscope has continuous waveform display, typically in a luminous phosphor. Some oscilloscopes can display more than one channel and type of measurement simultaneously. Some oscilloscopes can capture waveform signals to memory, and recall them. Oscilloscopes may provide real-time intensity grading. Some oscilloscopes have the ability to adjust frequency of display. A constant image will display if a signal is shown at a high frequency. Oscilloscopes can be powered with batteries or electricity, or may have a built-in generator. They may have Canadian Standards Association (CSA) or European Conformity (CE) certification, or a specific category (CAT) safety rating, such as CAT5e. Oscilloscopes are commonly used for testing, measuring, and inspecting in science, engineering, telecommunications, automotive, and industry applications.

Siglent manufactures electronics test and measurement instruments for research and development, production-line testing, and electronic field service applications. The company, founded in 2002 and headquartered in Shenzhen, China, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards 9001:2000 and 14001:2004.
