Small enough to be applied directly to the device under test, or close by, Pico Sampling Oscilloscopes are extremely high-performance and cost-effective measuring instruments for high-speed digital, communications, RF and microwave applications.

Sampling Oscilloscopes achieve better bandwidth and timing resolution than their traditional oscilloscope counterparts. They do this by sampling the signal more slowly, but right at the input connector. A sampling oscilloscope builds a waveform display as the input signal repeats and is not suited to single-shot capture applications. The true power of a sampling oscilloscope is realised when the signals to be measured have a repeating or cyclic pattern, or a steady data rate.

Sampling Oscilloscopes typically have high resolution, an input impedance of 50 Ohm and a single gain range. Active probes and external attenuators are added to achieve high impedance measurement and wider dynamic range.

Big Performance from Little Packages

• Trigger rate to 14 GHz
• Timing resolution down to 0.064 ps
• Fastest available waveform builds!

With the fastest available sampling rate, Pico sampled waveforms and persistence displays are captured three times faster than competing sampling oscilloscopes, which are often bulky and three times the price.

With their powerful and unique trigger, hold-off and acquisition features, Pico samplers can lock to repeating signal features with minimal jitter. All models have trigger pre-scalers (frequency dividers) to allow triggering at up to 14 GHz, while the comprehensive acquisition modes, trigger modes and timebase ranges can display frequency below 100 Hz through to an effective sampling rate of 15 TS/s!
