Introduction

This report was prepared February 2022. I subsequently purchased an MSO5074 with a PLA2216 Digital Probe Kit. It comes with 4x PVP2350 passive probes.

I keep my notes about my scope over here: Rigol MSO5074.

I got the MSO5000-BND bundle option with my purchase, which inclues:

Order No. Option Order Information
MSO5000-COMP Serial Protocol Analysis Option PC serial bus trigger and analysis (RS232/UART)
MSO5000-EMBD Serial Protocol Analysis Option Embedded serial bus trigger and analysis (I2C and SPI)
MSO5000-AUTO Serial Protocol Analysis Option Auto serial bus trigger and analysis (CAN and LIN)
MSO5000-FLEX Serial Protocol Analysis Option FlexRay serial bus trigger and analysis (FlexRay)
MSO5000-AUDIO Serial Protocol Analysis Option Audio serial bus trigger and analysis (I2S)
MSO5000-AERO Serial Protocol Analysis Option MIL-STD-1553 serial bus trigger and analysis (MIL-STD-1553)
MSO5000-AWG Measurement Application Option Dual-channel 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator
MSO5000-PWR Measurement Application Option Built-in Power Analysis

Options which I don't have but can get are:

Order No. Option Order Information Price (USD)
MSO5000-BW0T1 Bandwidth Upgrade Option Bandwidth upgrades from 70 MHz to 100 MHz $569
MSO5000-BW0T2 Bandwidth Upgrade Option Bandwidth upgrades from 70 MHz to 200 MHz $1,399
MSO5000-BW0T3 Bandwidth Upgrade Option Bandwidth upgrades from 70 MHz to 350 MHz $2,599
MSO5000-2RL Memory Depth Option Maximum memory depth up to 200 Mpts $399

This data was taken predominantly from RIGOL Digital Oscilloscopes.

Items in red are upgrade options (do not ship as standard).

Note that the number of pages in the data sheet and user manual are provided as a proxy for number of features.

All prices are in Aussie dollars, but some have been converted from US dollars, so prices aren't exact and don't necessarily include taxes or shipping.
