Oscilloscopes of Acute Technology support SENT Protocol Test
07 December 2020 - Acute Technology upgrades its digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) to support the SAE J2716 SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission) communication protocol with bus decode and trigger.
SIGLENT announced new 100 MHz Oscilloscope
30 November 2020 - SIGLENT’s new SDS1104X-U 4 channel 100MHz bandwidth Super Phosphor Oscilloscope has a maximum sample rate of 1 GSa/s and a standard record length of 14 Mpts. For ease-of-use, the most commonly used functions can be accessed with its user-friendly front panel design. Serial bus decoding for IIC, SPI, UART, CAN, and LIN bus types are included.
Oscilloscope Probes for high Frequency, high Voltage and low Current Analysis
26 November 2020 - Yokogawa launched a new range of high frequency, high voltage differential oscilloscope probes, combining proven features of its existing probes with new capabilities. The new range replaces six probes with three, offering a simpler choice for development engineers looking to test high performance systems. Recent trends for higher voltages in electric vehicles, railway inverters, new energy sources such as renewable solar and high-voltage commercial power lines such as 400 Vrms have shown the need for oscilloscope probes that can handle these high voltages.
Keysight Technologies launched new 8 Channel Oscilloscopes
12 November 2020 - Keysight Technologies announced the new Infiniium 8-channel oscilloscope technology, which is now available via both distribution and direct channels. The new Infiniium EXR-Series extends the power of Keysight's Infiniium MXR oscilloscope family to customers that want to buy through the company's global network of distributors. The Infiniium MXR-Series and EXR-Series feature multiple instruments integrated into a single platform for higher engineering productivity and ease-of-use. Both platforms offer advanced software applications and features that simplify debugging, power measurements and remote collaboration.
PC Software with enhanced Multi-Scope Analysis
11 November 2020 - Tektronix launched a new feature to its TekScope PC Software. TekScope PC Software with enhanced Multi-Scope Analysis allows remote users to view and analyze data from up to 32 channels from multiple scopes at the same time in the same interface, accelerating analysis efficiency. TekScope is compatible with data taken from all Tektronix scopes so users can leverage Tektronix's UI and analysis features for all existing scopes.
Oscilloscope KnowledeBase inculdes already more than 90 documents
30 October 2020 - The new Oscilloscope KnowledeBase of OScopes.info, a whitepaper and application note library focussing on oscilloscopes, includes already more than 90 whitepapers, application notes, YouTube videos and webinars, covering a wide range of applications and topics.
Isolated Oscilloscope Probes for Testing Power Systems
27 October 2020 -- Tektronix announced its second-generation IsoVu Isolated Oscilloscope Probes, the TIVP Series, which significantly advance the capabilities of the ground-breaking probes first introduced in 2016. The second-generation IsoVu probes extend the applications for isolated probe technology to the entire power system design market with a smaller size, improved ease of use, and enhanced electrical performance.

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.

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.
