Eliminate unnecessary idle signals and dead-time by selectivity capturing up to 80,000 segments. A powerful 25 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator comes standard in the 2540C Series. Use complimentary software to generate waveforms and load up to 4 arbitrary waveforms into the instrument. Built-in functions are sine, square, ramp, pulse, DC, noise, cardiac, Gaussian pulse, and exponential rise/fall. Automatic Waveform Math and Measurement Color Grading Display 36 automated measurements that include voltage, time, and statistics. Arithmetic and FFT functions can be performed on analog channels and two reference signals. With 256 levels of color grading, the most common occurrences are represented in red and the least common are represented in purple. Easily spot outliers as they will persist for a user specified time. Hardware Pass/Fail and Masking PC Connectivity Perform up to 40,000 pass/fail decisions a second. Easy to generate masking templates help capture anomalies even with complicated waveforms. 3 PC software is provided (free download at www.bkprecision.com) for seamless integration between the oscilloscope and PC. Capture and transfer waveforms, screen images, setups and measurement results to a Windows PC via the USB device port on the back of the instrument. A USB host port on the front allows for quick and easy screen saving. www.bkprecision.com Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes 2540C Series The tools you need Included in all MSO models MSO license - LA2540C Decode license - DC2540C The 16 integrated digital channels are displayed along-side analog channels allowing users to view up to 18 time-correlated channels with shared triggering and acquisition on one screen. The LA2540C license enables the 16 digital channels of the 2540C Series and is included with MSO models. Select up to 2 serial bus protocols I2C, SPI, UART/RS232, CAN, and LIN and decode concurrently from analog and MSO channels. Decode information in real-time and display in binary, decimal, hex, or ASCII. 16 channel logic probe - LP2540C The 16-channel color-coded logic probe consists of two eight-channel pods.
