The PicoScope 2208B from Pico Technology is a 100MHz 2-channel oscilloscope that also features built-in spectrum analysis, function/arbitrary waveform generation and serial bus analysis. Sampling at a maximum of 1GSa/s, the 2208B has a buffer memory of 128Msamples and a sophisticated 1MHz AWG signal generator. 15 automatic measurements are available in scope mode and another 11 in spectrum mode. Serial decoding (normally an extra cost on benchtop scopes) is included free for SPI, I2C, FlexRay, CANbus, LINbus, ARINC, and others. The PicoScope 2208B delivers amazing value, with excellent waveform visualization and measurement, as well as fast waveform update rates, giving the performance needed for advanced analysis of waveforms, including serial decoding and frequency plots, at a very affordable price point.
The PicoScope 2208B takes advantage of the computing and display and communication power of an attached laptop or desktop PC running Windows – now incorporating pinch, zoom, and drag capabilities. Mac and Linux versions of the PicoScope software are also available at no charge.
