Mixed-domain oscilloscope market seen reaching $2.58B by 2030

The mixed domain oscilloscopes market is projected to grow from $1.85 billion in 2025 to $2.58 billion by 2030, driven by demand from IoT, 5G and 6G testing, and electric vehicles. North America leads today, while Asia-Pacific is expected to grow fastest.

Why it matters: - Mixed domain oscilloscopes combine time-domain and frequency-domain testing in one instrument, giving engineers a faster way to debug increasingly complex electronics. - The market’s projected growth signals rising demand for test tools that can handle hybrid digital-analog systems, connected devices and high-speed designs. - The forecast also points to more spending on lab equipment tied to 5G, 6G, IoT, EVs and power electronics.

What happened: - The Business Research Company said the global mixed domain oscilloscopes market will rise from $1.85 billion in 2025 to $1.98 billion in 2026. - The company projects the market will reach $2.58 billion by 2030, implying a 6.9% CAGR from 2026 to 2030. - The release was dated July 20, 2026.

The details: - Mixed domain oscilloscopes can measure analog and digital signals simultaneously in a single unit. - The instruments can examine time-domain, frequency-domain and protocol-related signals at the same time. - The report cites demand from testing hybrid digital and analog electronics, telecommunications and RF engineering, embedded systems development, high-speed computing and complex PCB designs. - The release says new report features include market attractiveness scoring, TAM analysis, company scoring matrix graphics and tables, Excel-based forecasting dashboards, market hotspot infographics, key technology analysis, future trend analysis and updated graphics and tables. - The report covers Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East and Africa. - Download a free sample of the report - View the full report

Between the lines: - IoT growth is a major demand driver because connected devices need real-time data analysis and reliable communication testing. - Ericsson reported in April 2025 that global IoT connections reached 18.8 billion in 2024 and are projected to nearly double to 43.0 billion by 2030. - EV adoption is adding another layer of demand because MDOs are used to test power electronics, battery management units, motor controls and high-frequency communication interfaces. - The International Energy Agency said in April 2025 that global electric car sales topped 17 million units in 2024, up more than 25% year over year, and EVs made up more than 20% of new vehicle sales worldwide. - North America held the leading market position in 2025, while Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period. - The regional split suggests mature electronics markets will keep buying advanced instruments, while manufacturing and telecom expansion will drive future growth in Asia-Pacific.

What's next: - Demand is likely to keep rising as 5G and 6G testing, IoT deployments and EV production expand. - The report highlights cloud-connected lab instrumentation and miniaturized portable oscilloscopes as emerging trends. - The Business Research Company also promotes its Global Market Model as a forecasting platform for updated market intelligence.
