PC-connected oscilloscopes for mixed-signal measurement

14 November 2018 Test & Measurement

The highly flexible PicoScope 5000D series of PC-based oscilloscopes and mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) offers leading performance with up to 16-bit vertical resolution, up to 200 MHz bandwidth and 1GSps sampling speed. With two- and four-channel models in the range, the devices are designed to be connected to PCs, and integrate a high-speed USB 3.0 connection to allow waveform data to be saved quickly.

The FlexRes flexible-resolution technology enables users to reconfigure the product’s hardware to be either a fast oscilloscope for digital signals or a high-resolution device for audio work and other analog applications. A key feature of the 5000D series is the deep capture memory, which delivers up to 512 Msamples and enables the capture of long-duration waveforms at maximum sampling speed. The integrated DeepMeasure tool analyses every cycle in each triggered waveform acquisition and displays the results in a table.

The series offers support for a wide range of protocols including CAN, FlexRay, I²C, I²S, SPI, Ethernet, USB, Modbus and DMX512 for various applications in the automotive, embedded, industrial and lighting market sectors. The PicoSDK software development kit also allows users to write their own applications and supports continuous streaming to a host computer at up to 125 MSps.
