analog signal, converting it into d igital data,
and assembling it into a waveform record,
which is then stored in acq uisition memory.

Record points
DPO3000 series oscilloscopes use real-time
sampling. In real-time sampling, th e instrument
digitizes all of t he points it acqu ires using a
single trigger event.
