PicoScope 3000 Series
Power, portability, and performance
The PicoScope 3000 Series PC oscilloscopes are small, light, and portable, while
offering the high-performance specifications required by engineers in the lab or on
the move.
These oscilloscopes offer 2 or 4 analog channels, plus an additional 16 digital channels
on the MSO models. The flexible, high-resolution display options enable you to view
and analyze each signal in fine detail.
Operating together with the PicoScope 6 software, these devices offer an ideal,
cost-effective package for many applications, including embedded systems design,
research, test, education, service, and repair.
High bandwidth and sampling rate
Despite their compact size and low cost, there is no compromise on performance. With input bandwidths up to 200 MHz, the
PicoScope 3000 Series scopes can measure a wide range of signal types, from DC and baseband into RF and all the way up to VHF.
A real-time sampling rate of 1 GS/s allows detailed display of high frequencies. For repetitive signals, the maximum effective sampling rate
can be boosted to 10 GS/s using Equivalent Time Sampling (ETS) mode. With a sampling rate of at least five times the input bandwidth,
PicoScope 3000 Series oscilloscopes are well equipped to capture high-frequency signal detail.
High-end features as standard
Buying a PicoScope is not like making a purchase from other manufacturers, where
optional extras considerably increase the price. With our scopes, high-end features such
as resolution enhancement, mask limit testing, serial decoding, advanced triggering, a
spectrum analyzer, math channels, XY mode, segmented memory, a function generator,
and an arbitrary waveform generator are all included in the price.
To protect your investment, both the PC software and the firmware inside the scope can be updated. Pico Technology have a long
history of providing new features through free-of-charge software downloads. Users of our products reward us by becoming lifelong
customers and frequently recommending PicoScopes to their colleagues.
