Getting familiar with work-at-home instrumentation
The rise in social distancing has fostered a need for professional-grade test instruments that function as well at home as in the lab. David Horn | Digilent The events that have unfolded across the world since the beginning of 2020 have turned the global marketplace upside down. Few industries have felt this seismic shift as […]
Work-at-home tools: PC-based instruments address demanding applications
Advanced technology now lets budget-priced instrumentation handle tasks once requiring specialized and pricey test gear. Trevor Smith | Pico Technology Test & Measurement With a significant segment of engineers and researchers working at home or away from their lab during the pandemic, there is a large incentive to troubleshoot designs and validate performance using systems […]
PC-based scopes boast 5 GSa/sec real-time sampling and 4 GSa-deep memory
The 4-channel PicoScope 6000E Series 500-MHz oscilloscopes provide 8 to 12 bits of vertical resolution and up to 5 GSa/sec sampling rate with 4 GSa memory, allowing these scopes to display single-shot pulses with 200-psec time resolution. The three four-channel models added to the existing eight-channel 6000 series are the PicoScope 6403E with 300-MHz bandwidth […]
PC-based scopes provide four-channel measurements
PicoScope 6000E Series compact 4+16 channel MSOs deliver cost-effective test and debugging solution for engineers, developers and scientists. Pico Technology has further developed its PicoScope 6000E Series oscilloscopes with the launch of three new four-channel models, each of which can be configured with 16 optional digital channels. With bandwidths of 300 or 500 MHz, 8-bit […]
6-GHz scope combines eight analog, 16 digital channels
The first oscilloscope with eight analog channels at 6 GHz and 16 simultaneous digital channels, enables users to reduce test bench and workflow complexity to boost performance as well as provide accurate and repeatable multi-channel measurements in a single instrument. High-speed digital designs, power integrity verification, Wi-Fi 6, IoT, IIoT and imaging and gallium nitride […]
New budget-minded 200-MHz digital scopes sport 2GS/sec max sample rate
The new TBS2000B Series of Digital Storage Oscilloscopes was developed to meet the performance, usability and affordability needs of both engineers and educators. The TBS2000B scopes extend the performance of the TBS2000 portfolio to 200 MMz with 2GS/sec maximum sample rate. The TBS2000B introduction comes shortly after the release of Tektronix’s Series 3 and 4 […]
PC-based scopes host smart interfaces to handle automotive apps
The new PicoScope 4425A and 4225A diagnostic oscilloscopes are available in four-channel and two-channel configurations. This latest diagnostic PicoScope design combines all the strengths of the existing 4425/4225 automotive scopes but adds smart interfaces for powered and intelligent accessories. The new accessory interface, called PicoBNC+, combines the standard BNC connector with active digital and power […]
WiFi-connected automotive test scopes sport differential inputs
Automotive WiFiScopes are every-day oscilloscopes for automotive engineers and can be used via an Ethernet connection (LAN, WiFi or WAN) but also still with a USB 2.0/3.0 connection. The built-in battery gives the Automotive WiFiScope the possibility to perform fully wireless differential measurements. Measurements can then be performed completely galvanically isolated, and over long distances. […]
Real-time hand-held spectrum analyzer captures IQ data
IQ capture and IQ streaming options for the Field Master Pro MS2090A make the real-time spectrum analyzer (RTSA) the first handheld analyzer to capture 110 MHz of IQ data. The MS2090A can conduct comprehensive spectrum analysis in a variety of general-purpose applications, including military intelligence and government regulations. With 110 MHz bandwidth and 200 MSps […]
