Description
Powering up a board is a sequence, and a sequence needs more than two traces. The Rigol DS1104Z-Plus oscilloscope gives you four analog channels at 100 MHz, so you can watch several rails and a reset line together. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale, with service available on request.

Watching a power-up sequence on the Rigol DS1104Z-Plus oscilloscope
Many boards bring up their supplies in a set order. For example, a core rail may wait for an I/O rail, and a reset line may release last. With four channels, you can probe all four events at once and read the delays between them. As a result, a late or missing rail shows up on the first capture.
Adding logic lines later
The digital inputs are optional. They need the RPL1116 probe and a matching configuration, so they are not part of every unit. However, when a task needs logic lines, those 16 inputs let you follow a bus beside the analog signals. Plan this early, because it changes what goes into the quote.
Memory and sample rate in practice
The 1 GSa/s figure depends on the channel mode. Likewise, the 24 Mpts memory depth applies only with the applicable configuration. So confirm the installed memory option before you plan a long capture on the Rigol DS1104Z-Plus oscilloscope.
Borrow it for a build, or own it
A pilot line, a design review or a repair backlog may need a four-channel scope for a few weeks. In that case, a rental avoids a purchase order. A team that debugs boards every day may choose to buy instead. Lost in HCM prepares either quote, and SMK Vietnam only shows the listing.
Ask for a quote
List the channels you need, any digital inputs, and the dates. Then request a quote from Lost in HCM. You can also compare other oscilloscope listings, read more at Rigol or contact SMK Vietnam.
DS1104Z-Plus questions
Do I get the 16 digital channels by default?
No. They are optional, and they need the RPL1116 probe and a configuration that supports them.
Can four channels run at 1 GSa/s each?
Not necessarily. The maximum sample rate depends on the channel mode, so check it for your setup.
Is the photo my exact scope?
The photo shows the DS1000Z family. Its front-panel marking may differ, so Lost in HCM confirms the exact unit in the quote.
