RF isolated Current Probe
20 November 2024 - Tektronix announced the new TICP Series IsoVu isolated current probes. TICP IsoVu probes are the industry’s first current shunt probes to use RF isolation, providing complete galvanic isolation between measurement systems and devices under test, delivering high-bandwidth, low-noise current measurements in high-voltage applications compared to existing probes on the market or alternative shunt measurement techniques. Available in bandwidths up to 1 GHz, these probes enable engineers to capture accurate measurements of fast-changing currents on their oscilloscopes across a wide voltage range in nanoseconds – from microamps to kiloamps.
Entry‑level Oscilloscope with 10-bit Resolution
18 November 2024 - Rohde & Schwarz upgrades its oscilloscope portfolio with the new R&S RTB 2, an evolution of the R&S RTB2000, which was the first entry‑level oscilloscope to offer touchscreen operation and 10‑bit vertical resolution. With the R&S RTB 2, Rohde & Schwarz introduces several important updates that further enhance the instrument’s functionality and versatility. First, the oscilloscope now includes an integrated arbitrary waveform generator. This addition allows users to simulate circuit stimuli or emulate missing components. The waveform generator is capable of generating signals up to 25 MHz and pattern speeds up to 50 Mbits/s.
New Version of PicoScope 7 Software
08 November 2024 - Pico Technology released PicoScope 7.1.39 - the latest stable version of the software for its PC-based oscilloscopes. The software adds features previously deployed in Early Access versions of the software, plus UX improvements, bug fixes and operating system compatibility updates.
New 4/6/8 Channel 12-bit digital Oscilloscope Series
05 November 2024 - Rigol introduced the MHO/DHO5000 4/6/8-channel high-resolution digital oscilloscope series, based on Rigol's new proprietary Centaurus technical platform. 500MHz and 1GHz models are available in this series. The 1,000,000 wfms/s waveform capture rate, up to 500Mpt memory depth, 12-bit resolution, real-time sample rate of up to 4GSa/s, together with an excellent noise floor, all address the test demands for high accuracy situations. Vertical sensitivity provided is down to 100μV/div.
Mixed-Signal Oscilloscopes with 40 serial Decoders
30 September 2024 - Pico Technology announced the launch of the MSO (Mixed-Signal Oscilloscope) versions of the PicoScope 3000E Series. The latest additions combine cutting-edge technology with user-friendly design to meet the diverse needs of engineers, technicians and researchers worldwide. These new MSO models offer the same powerful features as the existing 3000E series, with added digital channel capability, making them ideal for testing and debugging mixed-signal embedded systems.
High-Definition Oscilloscopes with Data Viewer Software
12 September 2024 - Yokogawa Test & Measurement Corporation announces the release of its DLM3000HD series high-definition oscilloscopes supported by new IS8002CDV Classic Data Viewer (CDV) software. The compact and lightweight multi-channel DLM3000HD meets market demand for high-precision, high-speed measurement of complex digital waveforms during inverter/motor development and testing. With a lineup spanning 500 MHz and 350 MHz frequency bandwidth models, the combination of proprietary low-noise detection and high resolution allows technicians to perform studies in minute detail, faster than ever before. The new IS8002CDV software further supports expediency with its rapid response times, swift analysis of measurement data, and advanced algorithms.
