5-in-1 Programmable Oscilloscopes
25 March 2024 - Saelig Company introduced the GW Instek MPO-2000 Series Multifunction Programmable Oscilloscopes. These instruments combine, in one space-saving box, a full-featured oscilloscope, a spectrum analyzer, an arbitrary waveform generator, a digital multimeter, and a 2-channel 20VDC power supply. In addition to its five-in-one multi-functional architecture, it features Python script functionality into the MPO-2000, enabling users to create a small, low-cost automated test system without an external controlling PC. Python is widely used in scientific computing, data analysis, web development, artificial intelligence, and other fields since it is easy to learn and use.
Decode, Trigger & Search Support for the CAN XL Protocol
20 March 2024 - Tektronix announced the release of the Tektronix CAN XL (Controller Area Network Extended Length) protocol decoder, enabling engineers incorporating the latest generation of CAN communications, and helping Tektronix customers compete in today’s fast-changing technology landscape. With the ability to decode signals representing data packets transmitted using CAN XL frames in a CAN network, the Tektronix CAN XL protocol decoder runs on today’s 4, 5, 6 Series MSO Oscilloscopes and also offers critical features such as error detection, analysis and debugging of timing and protocol headers.
