Digital triggering also reduces re-arm delay and this, combined with the
segmented memory, allows the triggering and capture of events that
happen in rapid sequence. At the fastest timebase you can use rapid
triggering to collect 10,000 waveforms in under 20 milliseconds. Our
mask limit testing function can then scan through these waveforms to
highlight any failed waveforms for viewing in the waveform buffer.
Huge buffer memory
The PicoScope 5000 Series offers memory depths up to 512 million
samples, more than any other oscilloscope in this price range.
Other oscilloscopes have high maximum sampling rates, but without deep
memory they cannot sustain these rates on long timebases. Using its
512 MS buffer, the PicoScope
5444B can sample at 1 GS/s
all the way down to 50 ms/
div (500 ms total capture
time).
Managing all this data calls
for some powerful tools.
There’s a set of zoom buttons, plus an overview window that lets you
zoom and reposition the display by simply dragging with the mouse. Zoom
factors of several million are possible.
Each captured waveform is stored in a segmented buffer so you can rewind
and review up to 10,000 previous waveforms. No longer will you see a
glitch on the screen only for it to vanish before you stop the scope. A mask
can be applied to hide waveforms that are not of interest.
Advanced triggers
As well as the standard range of triggers
found on all oscilloscopes, the PicoScope
5000 Series offers an industry-leading set
of advanced triggers including pulse width,
windowed and dropout triggers to help
you capture the data you need.
Arbitrary waveform and function generator
All units have a built-in function generator (sine, square, triangle, DC level).
As well as basic controls to set level, offset and frequency, more advanced
controls allow you to sweep over a range of frequencies. Combined with
the spectrum peak hold option this
makes a powerful tool for testing
amplifier and filter responses.
The PicoScope 5000 Series B
models include additional built-in
waveforms as well as an arbitrary waveform generator. Waveforms
can be created or edited using the built-in AWG editor, imported from
oscilloscope traces, or loaded from a spreadsheet.
High signal integrity
Most oscilloscopes are built down to a price; ours are built up to a
specification.
Careful front-end design and
shielding reduces noise, crosstalk
and harmonic distortion. Years of
oscilloscope experience leads to
improved pulse response and
bandwidth flatness.
We are proud of the dynamic performance of our products and publish
these specifications in detail. The result is simple: when you probe a circuit,
you can trust in the waveform you see on the screen.
PicoScope: power, portability and versatility
Pico Technology continues to push the limits of PC oscilloscope design. For
the first time in an oscilloscope, Pico Technology have used reconfigurable
ADCs to offer a choice of 8-bit to 16-bit resolutions in a single product.
Flexible resolution
Most digital oscilloscopes gain their high sampling rates by interleaving
multiple 8-bit ADCs. Despite careful design, the interleaving process
introduces errors that always make the dynamic performance worse than
the performance of the individual ADC cores.
The PicoScope 5000 scopes have a significantly different architecture in
which multiple high-resolution ADCs can be applied to the input channels
in different series and parallel combinations to boost either the sampling
rate or the resolution. In series mode, the ADCs are interleaved to provide
1 GS/s at 8 bits (see diagram).
Interleaving reduces the performance of the ADCs, but the result (60 dB
SFDR) is still much better than oscilloscopes that interleave 8-bit ADCs.
This mode can also provide 500 MS/s at 12 bits resolution.
In parallel mode, multiple ADCs are sampled in phase on each channel
increasing the resolution to 14 bits (see diagram) at 125 MS/s per channel
(70 dB SFDR). If only two channels are required then resolution can be
increased to 15 bits, and in single-channel mode all the ADCs are combined
to give a 16-bit mode at 62.5 MS/s.
Portability
Pico Technology oscilloscopes are small, light and portable. In 2-channel
mode the 5000 Series scopes can be powered from USB only, making
them ideal for the engineer on the move. The external power supply is
only needed when operating more than 2 channels. The 5000 Series
oscilloscopes are suitable for field use in many applications, such as design,
research, test, education, service and repair.
High bandwidth, high sampling rate
Most USB-powered oscilloscopes have real-time sampling rates of only
100 or 200 MS/s, but the PicoScope 5000 Series offers up to 1 GS/s, and
a maximum bandwidth of 200 MHz. Equivalent time sampling (ETS) mode
can be used to further boost the sampling rate to 10 GS/s for a more
detailed view of repetitive signals.
Digital triggering
Most digital oscilloscopes sold today still use an analog trigger architecture
based on comparators. This can cause time and amplitude errors that
cannot always be calibrated out. The use of comparators often limits the
trigger sensitivity at high bandwidths.
In 1991 we pioneered the use of fully digital triggering using the actual
digitized data. This technique reduces trigger errors and allows our
oscilloscopes to trigger on the smallest signals, even at the full bandwidth.
Trigger levels and hysteresis can be set with high precision and resolution.

Mask limit testing
This feature is specially designed for production and debugging
environments. Capture a signal from a known working system, and
PicoScope will draw a mask around it with your specified tolerance.
Connect the system under test, and PicoScope will highlight any parts
of the waveform that fall outside the mask area. The highlighted details
persist on the display, allowing the scope to catch intermittent glitches
while you work on something else. The measurements window counts the
number of failures, and can display other measurements and statistics at
the same time. You can import and export masks as files.
Custom probe settings
The custom probes feature allows you to correct for gain, attenuation,
offsets and nonlinearities in special probes, or to convert to different units
of measurement (such as current, power or temperature). You can save
definitions to disk for later use.
Spectrum analyzer
With a click of a button,
you can display a
spectrum plot of the
selected channels with
a maximum frequency
up to 200 MHz. A
full range of settings
gives you control
over the number of spectrum bands, window types and display modes:
instantaneous, average, or peak-hold.
You can display multiple spectrum views with different channel selections
and zoom factors, and see these alongside time-domain waveforms of
the same data. A comprehensive set of automatic frequency-domain
measurements, including THD, THD+N, SNR, SINAD and IMD, can be
added to the display.
Math channels
Create new channels by combining input channels and reference
waveforms. Choose from a wide range of arithmetic, logarithmic,
trigonometric and
other functions.
Define a function
using the push-button
control panel or type
an equation in the text
box.
PicoScope Features
High-end features as standard
Buying a scope from some companies is a bit like buying a car. By the time
you have added all the optional extras you need, the price has gone up
considerably. With the PicoScope 5000 Series, high-end features such as
mask limit testing, serial decoding, advanced triggering, measurements,
math, XY mode, digital filtering and segmented memory are all included
in the price.
To protect your investment, both the PC software and firmware inside
the unit can be updated. We have a long history of providing new features
for free as software downloads. Other companies make vague promises
about future enhancements but we deliver on our promises year after
year. Users of our products reward us by becoming lifelong customers,
frequently recommending us to their colleagues.
The design of the PicoScope software ensures that maximum display
area is available for waveform viewing. Even with a laptop you have a
much bigger viewing area and higher resolution than a typical benchtop
scope.
Persistence display modes
See old and new data superimposed, with new data in a brighter color or
shade. This makes it easy to see glitches and dropouts and to estimate their
relative frequency. Choose between analog persistence and digital color,
or create a custom display mode.
Serial decoding
The PicoScope 5000 Series, with its deep memory, is ideal for serial
decoding as it can capture thousands of frames of uninterrupted data.
Protocols currently included are I²C, SPI, RS232/UART, CAN, LIN and
FlexRay. Expect this list to grow with free software updates.
High-speed data acquisition/digitizer
The drivers and software development kit supplied allow you to write
your own software or interface to popular third-party software packages
such as LabVIEW.
If the scope’s ultra-deep memory isn’t enough, the driver supports data
streaming, a mode that captures gap-free continuous data through the
