Overview
About GDS-3102A
The GDS-3102A is the 2-channel variant of GW Instek’s flagship 1 GHz oscilloscope platform, delivering 5 GSa/s real-time sampling and 200 Mega points memory per channel. With a waveform update rate of 200,000 wfm/s, it captures infrequent anomalies that lower refresh rates would miss. Built-in power analysis, serial protocol decoding, a dual-channel 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator, and spectrogram display make it a comprehensive bench instrument for power and embedded design.

The spectrogram view overlays frequency content over time, making it straightforward to identify intermittent EMI events, clock drift, and spectral changes during power supply transients. Combined with 13 integrated power analysis measurements including efficiency, switching loss, and safe operating area testing, the GDS-3102A serves as a dedicated power electronics development station.
For engineers who need two high-bandwidth channels without the cost of a 4-channel instrument, the GDS-3102A delivers the full feature set of the GDS-3104A platform in a more budget-friendly configuration.

GW Instek Insights
Emulating Processor Power for Thermal Testing: Why Constant Power
A heat sink or a cold plate is qualified against a watt figure, not a volt figure. This application note explains why a thermal load is driven in constant-power mode, how the bench is built for air and for liquid cooling, and what to confirm before you buy.
CRPS and Rack Power Supply Testing: The Six Tests That Matter
A CRPS module has to hold up under an unbalanced grid, a 0 to 100 percent load step, a surge on the line and a redundancy handover. This application note sets out the six tests, and the one source capability that makes a long feeder reproducible on the bench.
GPU Power Board Testing: DC Input Verification Before Integration
A GPU power delivery board is cheap to reject on a bench and expensive to find in an assembled server. This application note covers the programmable DC input test that screens the board, and the same test applied to incoming server systems.
