To be certain that they are not excluding possible users, manufacturers label these instruments scopes/digitizers. A good example would be a PCIe-based module with streaming and on-board measurement ...

A digitizer is an electronic acquisition device that acquires analog waveforms, processes them through analog-to-digital converters (ADC’s) and sends the digitized sample to a buffer, which allows ...

Digitizers convert the samples of an analog signal into digital values using analog to digital converters (ADCs). The more bits, the smaller the change in signal and ADC can detect. While 8 bits is ...
