The PicoScope 9404-05 5GHz oscilloscope is a PC-based high-resolution device which brings an affordable high-speed performance by combining the benefits of real-time and equivalent-time sampling with high analog bandwidth. The PicoScope 9404-05 has four 5 GHz 50-Ω input channels, each with its own advanced 12-bit ADC, which provide the required timing and display resolution for accurately measuring and visualizing high-speed repetitive analog and data signals. This tool can capture pulse and step transitions to 70 psec, impulses down to 140 psec, and clocks and data eyes to 3 Gb/sec.

The PicoScope 9404-05 has a built-in full-bandwidth trigger for each channel, with pre-trigger ETS (equivalent-time sampling) capture available to well above the Nyquist sampling rate. The PicoSample 4 software is provided at no extra charge and is derived from previous Pico products. It benefits from more than ten years of development and optimization. As they become available, new software features and updates are provided at no additional cost.

The high-resolution software display can be resized to fit any window, filling 4k and even larger for multiple monitors. Four independent zoom channels can show different views of captured data to a resolution of 1 psec. Most of the controls and status panels can be shown or hidden according to various needs, allowing optimal use of the display area
.
Most high-bandwidth measurement applications tend to involve repetitive signals or clock-related data streams. These are candidates for analysis by equivalent-time sampling systems. The 9404-05 Sampler-Extended Real Time Oscilloscope (SXRTO), with acquisitions running at up to 2 million triggered captures per second, enables very fast signals to build up in the display quickly.

The 9404-05 is compact enough to place on a workbench in close proximity to a device under test. Apart from the controlling PC, everything needed is built into the oscilloscope, with no expensive hardware or software add-ons required.
Features include:

• 5GHz bandwidth, 70 psec transition time
• 1 TS/sec (1 psec) equivalent-time sampling
• Four channels with 12-bit 500 MSa/sec ADCs
• Pulse, eye and mask testing to 70 psec and 3 Gb/sec
• Up to 2 million triggered captures/sec
• Logical, configurable, touch-compatible Windows user interface
• Comprehensive built-in measurements zoom, data masks and histograms
