Battery-powered scopes hit 150 MHz bandwidth

The Micsig STO1000E PLUS series of two- and four-channel battery-powered portable oscilloscopes offer bandwidths of up to 150 MHz. The three models in the series are: STO1102E PLUS 2-channel 100 MHz, STO1152E PLUS 150 MHz 2-channel, and STO1104E PLUS 4-channel 100 MHz. Each oscilloscope includes 70 Mpt memory, 1 GSa/sec sampling (single channel), 130,000 wfm/sec refresh rate, and a 7.5 Ah Li battery for extended field use.

These innovative portable instruments are a development of Micsig’s range of tablet oscilloscopes and combine an 8-in touch screen (touch, drag, and swipe) with ‘button & knob’ operation. An external USB mouse can also be connected for additional control choices, with an internal software pop-up keyboard provided for data entry. The built-in HDMI output adds educational and demonstration possibilities, and an auto-calibration function ensures measurement accuracy. Sophisticated waveform triggering techniques include: Edge, Pulse Width, Logic, Video, Runt, Time Out, Nth Edge, Slopetime, and Serial Decode. A screen capture button provides a quick way of saving waveform images for later review or report writing.

Included as standard are two P130A 200 MHz x10 passive probes and an external 12-V power adapter. STO1000E PLUS oscilloscopes can make 31 types of automatic measurements, and decode a selection of serial protocols, including UART, CAN, LIN, SPI, I²C, 1553B, and ARINC429. I/O provisions include Wi-Fi, LAN, HDMI, USB Host, USB Device, dc Power, and Aux out. 8 GB of internal data storage is included for data files which can be transferred to a PC via a USB connection, LAN, or WiFi.

The oscilloscope features a built-in prop stand for easy viewing. When the oscilloscope is connected to a LAN or WiFi network, live screen images can be transmitted to an external projector. The scope can also be remotely PC-controlled via WiFi, LAN, or USB, and also via an Android mobile device.
