Pocket-sized scopes deliver benchtop performance
A new range of oscilloscopes has been introduced by Pico Technology, which it says delivers benchtop performance from a tiny 19mm thick package.
Connected to and powered from a USB port, the scopes offer bandwidths up to 200MHz and feature an arbitrary waveform generator.
This, says Pico, makes them ideal for engineers on the move to keep in their laptop bag.
The devices offer a maximum sampling rate of 1GS/s, adjustable analogue offset over the full input range, and high speed USB streaming up to 1MS/s for waveform captures of up to 100million samples in length.
The built-in signal source can act as a standard signal generator (sine, square, triangle and others) with programmable sweep, or as a 12bit 20MS/s full function arbitrary waveform generator.
