USB oscilloscope software adds waveform overlays and other new features

December 18, 2025 By Redding Traiger Leave a Comment

Picoscope 7.2 makes troubleshooting easier by highlighting decision points on waveforms. New features include: Waveform overlays, which let you see differences in captured signals, helping you identify glitches on other intermittent occurrences; Measurement Indicators: the software places visual markers on waveforms, which highlight the points where it measures parameters such as rise time and frequency; Serial decoding filters tool cuts the time spent analyzing long serial data captures. You can configure filters to identify specific packets, data types, or indexed date ranges of interest based on criteria such as data length or specific content. You can apply this filtering to any of the 40 serial protocols that the software supports; Channel Deskew lets you compensate for timing differences caused by probes of different cable lengths, which provides perfectly aligned multi-channel measurements; Timing enhancements let you see when a data capture takes place and when a PicoScope oscilloscope triggers on an event.
PicoScope 7.2 supports all Pico Technologies’ USB oscilloscopes and is available for free download.
