5000D Series oscilloscopes
Serial decoding and analysis
With its deep memory, the PicoScope 5000D Series is ideally suited to serial decoding and analysis, which are included as standard.
The PicoScope 6 software has support for 18 protocols including I

C, SPI, CAN, RS-232 and Ethernet.
Decoding helps you see what is happening in your design to identify programming and timing errors and check for other signal integrity issues. Timing analysis tools help to show
the performance of each design element, identifying parts of the design that need to be improved to optimize overall system performance.
Graph format shows the decoded data (in hex, binary, decimal or ASCII) in a
timing diagram format, beneath the waveform on a common time axis, with
error frames marked in red. You can zoom in on these frames to investigate
noise or distortion, and each packet eld is assigned a different color, so the
data is easy to read.
Table format shows a list of the decoded frames, including the data and all
ags and identiers. You can set up ltering conditions to display only the
frames you are interested in or search for frames with specied properties.
The statistics option reveals more detail about the physical layer such as
frame times and voltage levels. PicoScope can also import a spreadsheet to
decode the data into user-dened text strings.
