Rohde & Schwarz introduces a new Oscilloscope Series
28 September 2022 - Rohde & Schwarz added a completely new series to its oscilloscope portfolio that delivers a number of industry firsts. The new R&S MXO 4 series oscilloscopes feature the world’s fastest real-time update rate of over 4.5 million acquisitions per second. Development engineers can now see more signal detail and infrequent events than with any other oscilloscope. The 12-bit ADC in the R&S MXO 4 series has 16 times the resolution of traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes at all sample rates without any tradeoffs for more precise measurements. A standard acquisition memory of 400 Mpts on all four channels gives the instrument up to 100 times the standard memory of comparable instruments.
Oscilloscope Test Kits for Heavy-Duty Vehicles and Off-Highway Equipment
19 September 2022 - Pico Technology launched a set of new off-highway kits for Heavy-Duty vehicle and Off-Highway (HD-OH) equipment testing built around a dedicated PicoScope oscilloscope. Created for fault diagnosis on trucks, tractors, forklifts, boats, combine harvesters, excavators and more, the off-highway kits contain a modified PS4425A PicoScope having additional protection to better withstand off-highway conditions. The scope is fully supported by Pico Technology’s class-leading, and free, PicoScope 7 Automotive software.
Multi-function Touch Screen Oscilloscope
09 September 2022 - Hantek released a new generation of the TO1000 series multi-function full touch screen oscilloscope. The new TO1000 series oscilloscope has a thin body, is light weight and easy to carry. Its unique hanging design enables a hands-free operation. The instrument integrates oscilloscope, multimeter, signal generator and spectrum analyzer. The built in large capacity battery offers long endurance and supports fast charging.
IEPE Signal Conditioner
19 August 2022 - Pico Technology launched a signal interface box for piezoelectric sensors. The TA487 IEPE Signal Conditioner is an interface that allows industry-standard IEPE (integrated electronic piezoelectric) sensors to be used with any oscilloscope or data acquisition device with BNC inputs. The device is powered from any USB port, using the cable supplied, and provides a 4mA constant current source to power a connected IEPE sensor.
100MHz Battery-Powered Automotive Oscilloscope
17 August 2022 - Saelig Company introduced the Micsig SATO1004 Automotive Tablet Oscilloscope with 4 channels, a bandwidth of 100MHz, an easy-use touchscreen operation and a comprehensive set of vehicle diagnostics. With its signal sample rate of 1GSa/s, the SATO1004 is a vehicle testing tool for evaluating systems such as: ABS, Accelerator Pedal, Throttle Position, Fuel Pressure, Air Flow meter, Crankshaft, Camshaft, Knock, MAP, 12/24V Charging & Start, Charging Ripple, Cranking Current Sensors, Actuators, Ignition, and Networks (CAN, LIN, Flex ray, K line, etc.)
PMBus Decoding to analyze smart Batteries and Power Supplies
15 August 2022 - Pico Technology released a Power Management Bus (PMBus) decoder to their database of free serial decoders. The PMBus decoder tool is available in PicoScope 7 (Early Access) to decode, display and analyze smart batteries and power supplies. PMBus is a serial communications protocol aimed at the configuration, control, and monitoring of power supply devices. It’s built on top of the proven foundation of the SMBus, which is a low-cost, two-wire bus derived from I2C.
30 MHz High-Voltage Differential Probes
04 August 2022 - Cal Test Electronics introduced the CT4447 Series of 30 MHz High-Voltage Differential Probes. Two different attenuation settings are offered, covering the most requested voltage ranges. Compatible with oscilloscopes (with 1 MΩ input) from all major manufacturers, the probes can be powered by batteries (included), a universal mains adapter (included), or by the oscilloscope, if USB equipped.

Oscilloscope Probes – Vital Link in the Measurement Chain
Signal measurement results can only be as accurate as the test and measurement tools in use. As clock rates and edge speeds of today’s electronic circuits increase, probing becomes a critical piece of the measurement system – the component that comes in direct contact with your circuit. This article looks at voltage probing considerations for embedded system and digital design debugging applications.
