As a company we have spent the last
15 years listening to what our customers want. The result of this
feedback, and our unrivalled experience, is the PicoScope 5204
dual-channel oscilloscope. Its class-leading bandwidth, sampling rate
and memory depth are complemented by an array of advanced high end
features.Advanced
triggers
As well as the standard range of
triggers found on most oscilloscopes, the PicoScope 5000 series has a
full complement of advanced triggers as standard to help you capture the
data you need.
Advanced triggers include:
- Pulse width
- Pulses less than/greater than a
specified time width can be triggered on.
- Window
- If a signal moves into or out of a
specified window — defined by 2 thresholds — a trigger event can be
generated. Optionally, the event can be qualified by pulse width,
and other trigger sources.
- Dropout
- Triggers after a signal stops
toggling for a user defined amount of time, can be qualified by
other trigger sources
- Delay
- Once a trigger event has been
identified, the unit can be configured to trigger on the nth event
and can additionally be delayed by a user defined amount of time.
- Logic Level
- A range of triggers to identify a
user defined logic state or pattern. There are up to 4 logic trigger
sources: CHA, CHB, EXT and AUX I/O.
Arbitrary Waveform
Generator
PicoScope 5000 series
PCOs feature a built in signal
generator output. This can generate standard waveforms from a library of
stored waveforms including sine, square, triangle, ramp up, ramp down,
sin(x)/x, Gaussian, half sine, white noise and DC level. You can also
define your own waveforms using the power of the built in 12 bit, 125
MS/s arbitrary waveform generator (AWG).
Spectrum Analyser
With the click of a button, a waveform
capture window can be opened to display the spectrum plot of the
selected channel. The spectrum analyser allows signals up to 250 MHz to
be viewed in the frequency domain. A full range of settings give you
control over the number of spectrum bands, window types and display
modes.
High speed data
acquisition
If the 128 M sample record length isn’t
enough, the supplied drivers and Software Development Kit allows users
to write their own software or interface to popular third party software
packages. The drivers support data streaming functionality, where
gap-free continuous data can be streamed via the USB 2.0 port directly
to the PC's RAM or hard disk drive at up to 6 MS/s.
