A "Streaming Distributed Oscilloscope" (SDO) architecture comprises at least one channel including a preamplifier module, a Digitizer Module, and an Acquisition Memory Module. An SDO couples all acquired samples of a waveform being monitored to all of its processing boards. Because multiple processor boards can access all of the sample data, an SDO can perform measurements on substantially all samples of a continuous data stream without dead time. An SDO is readily expandable in terms of memory length by simply adding more memory boards, and can be reconfigured by a user by virtue of its object-oriented architecture. An SDO waveform is defined by a trigger source and an acquisition memory. An SDO is capable of acquiring multiple waveforms based upon different triggers from the same data stream in the same channel. An SDO timebase for a given channel is defined by a decimator followed by an acquisition memory. Multiple timebases can co-exist in the same SDO channel.
