B&K Precision enhances Digital Storage and Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes
11 November 2021 - B&K Precision announced their latest iteration of performance oscilloscopes with the 2560B Series. This series improves on the previous 2560 series and introduces new features not typically found in other oscilloscopes in this class. Most noticeably, the increased maximum bandwidth to 350 MHz and the large 10.1-inch touchscreen display with intuitive touchscreen gestures.
Four new Protocol Decoders added
05 November 2021 - Pico Technology announced the inclusion of four new protocol decoders / analyzers with PicoScope software. MIL-STD-1553, CAN J1939, Quadrature encoded and Parallel bus decoders are included with the latest PicoScope 6 software (6.14.54) for Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems. The same decoders have also been added to PicoScope 7, the next-generation PicoScope user interface. (PicoScope 7 Early Access program gives users access to the software during the ongoing development work.)
Economy Oscilloscopes with 5 GSa/s analog Bandwidth
03 November 2021 - Teledyne expanded its Teledyne Test Tools with the new T3DSO3000 Oscilloscopes featuring four channel models with analog bandwidth options from 200 MHz to 1 GHz. Each model offers a maximum sample rate of 5 GSa/s, and a maximum memory depth of 250 Mpts in half channel mode. All models incorporate two 5 GSa/s ADCs and two 250 Mpts memory modules.
New App guides Technicians through Automotive Diagnostics
25 October 2021 - Pico Technology launched the new PicoScope Automotive app. This exciting development is not PicoScope software running on a phone or tablet, but instead brings together a powerful and accessible set of information designed to be our most interactive and complete customer engagement tool. The app gives new users everything they need to understand PicoScope no matter the level of their diagnostic experience.
2 GHz Oscilloscope with 12-inch Touchscreen
13 October 2021 - The new oscilloscope series SDS6000A from Siglent addresses the requirements of ever higher switching and signal frequencies in modern devices. The operating concept is well thought out and intuitive enabling measurements to be configured quickly and increases efficiency in the laboratory. The SDS6000A series are available with a maximum bandwidth of 2 GHz. In addition to the higher bandwidth, the device offers 5 GS/s per channel and and interpolation technique ESR (Enhanced Sample Rate) is implemented for equivalent sample rates up-to 10 GS/s per channel, which significantly improves the quality of the acquired signals.
Software-Defined Instrumentation Platform with real-time Measurement Capabilities
27 September 2021 - Liquid Instruments launched Moku:Pro, a high-performance platform for engineering and research labs. Moku:Pro hosts nine powerful instruments, including an oscilloscope, lock-in amplifier, PID controller, phasemeter, arbitrary waveform generator, data logger, spectrum analyzer, frequency response analyzer, and waveform generator to ensure researchers have the instrumentation they need to quickly characterize their set up and scale their experiments. The platform was designed to meet the needs of researchers in a variety of fields, from aerospace to semiconductor.
Stream Measurement Data to a secure online Cloud
14 September 2021 – Pico Technology launched the PicoLog Cloud data logging software, which enables any Pico data logger or real-time oscilloscope to save data to a local disk or stream the capture directly to a secure online Cloud store. This enables the users to set up and control captures on a source PC and then remotely view them on any number of client devices running the software. You can also view, on a standard browser, live or previously saved captures on any PC or tablet device connected to the internet.

Digital Debugging - better using a Mixed-Signal-Oscilloscope or a Logic Analyzer?
Today’s technology is fundamentally balanced on an increasingly fine line between the analogue and digital domains; as data speeds increase — both within and between devices — the ‘ideal world’ of fast, clean digital transitions becomes evermore difficult to achieve. This presents new and escalating challenges when verifying faster digital signals that exhibit more and more analogue-like features. As a result it is becoming necessary to remove the hard line between digital and analogue.
