The monthly “Flea at MIT” featured an abundance of test equipment. We even bought some.
Oscilloscopes
14-bit oscilloscope delivers low noise, fast updates
Keysight’s InfiniiVision HD3 series oscilloscopes let you see signals with 4x the resolution of 12-bit instruments.
USB oscilloscopes add automotive 10Base-T1S protocol analysis
Pico Technology, a manufacturer of USB oscilloscopes, has added 10Base-T1S protocol analysis to software that operates the company’s line of USB oscilloscopes. That brings to 40 the number of serial protocols that the company supports. PicoScope 7 software is a free download. 10Base-T1S is a two-wire Ethernet standard that specifies a physical layer for automotive […]
Four-channel USB oscilloscopes sample at 5 GS/sec
The PicoScope 3000E series has models with analog bandwidths of 350 MHz and 500 MHz. Hitting the “sweet spot” for analog bandwidth, the 3000E Series — 500 MHz (3418E) and 350 MHz (3417E) — USB oscilloscopes from Pico Technology fill a gap in the company’s oscilloscope offerings in terms of bandwidth. Both models feature four […]
NI president: “We are the LabVIEW company”
EE World met with Ritu Favre, who emphasized a return to the company’s product roots. National Instruments, now NI and a part of Emerson, has a long, dominant history in test and measurement. Best known for LabVIEW graphical programming and its supporting cast of software for instrument control and data analysis, NI was founded in […]
Screenless oscilloscope fits 2U rack space
The MXO 5C screenless oscilloscope from Rohde & Schwarz comes in four or eight channels with 2 GHz bandwidth.
Calibrator automates oscilloscope calibrations on four channels
Fluke’s 9500C oscilloscope calibrator with remote heads streamlines oscilloscope calibration from the front panel and through PC software.
APEC 2024: Test equipment
Test equipment is everywhere. Every trade show has it regardless of the focus. Power is no exception. At APEC 2024, EE World visited several booths displaying test equipment: meters, oscilloscopes, source-measure units (SMUs), bench power supplies, and electronic loads. The photos and videos below highlight what we saw, presented in alphabetical order by company. In […]
Function, arb generators and multimeters enhance test equipment lines
RIGOL Technologies is expanding its family of ultra-portable instruments with the introduction of the DG800 Pro and DG900 Pro Series Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generators, along with the DM858 Series Digital Multimeters. Like their predecessors—the DHO800 and DHO900 Series High-Resolution Oscilloscopes—these new generators and multimeters deliver impressive performance and functionality in a compact and light […]
Digital oscilloscopes offer up to 2GSa/s sampling rate, 56Mpts memory depth
Uni-Trend US has introduced the UPO1000 Series digital oscilloscopes, which come in 50MHz, 100MHz, and 200MHz bandwidth options. The oscilloscopes feature a 4-channel design and use Fast Acquire Phosphor™ technology. The UPO1000 series has a real-time sampling rate of up to 2GSa/s and a maximum memory depth of 56Mpts. It also features a 500,000 waveforms […]
