Oscilloscope:

Performance: 12-bit resolution, large buffer with up to 32 M samples, fast USB

2.0 interface.

Flexibility: Use it as an oscilloscope, spectrum analyser or high-speed data

acquisition interface.

Programmability: The PicoScope 4000 series API lets you write your own

programs, in your chosen programming language, to control all the features of the

already have in your PC. The PicoScope 4000 Series scope unit contains the special

hardware you need and nothing more.

interface and networking built in to your PC.
