Customers will note that the 4 Series B MSO user interface is twice as responsive and boasts significantly accelerated advanced analysis.
04 December 2023 - Tektronix announced the introduction of an open-source Python instrument driver package. Available free of charge, the package provides a native Python user experience for instrument automation. With integration into daily workflows and utilizing it with a preferred Integrated Development Environment (IDE), customers can now experience the power of auto-complete, precise type hinting, comprehensive built-in help, real-time syntax checking and enhanced debugging capabilities, resulting in unparalleled capabilities for seamless instrument automation.
20 November 2023 - SIGLENT released its new flagship oscilloscope SDS7000A. SDS7000A provides 4 analog channels and 16 digital channels, with bandwidths of 3GHz and 4GHz. The maximum sampling rate is 20GSa/s, the vertical resolution is 12-bit (by hardware), the standard acquisition memory depth is 500 Mpts per channel. This can be upgraded to 1 Gpts/ch. The noise floor is as low as 220μVrms at 4 GHz bandwidth. The waveform capture rate can go up to 1 million wfm/s, which speed up capturing abnormal events. The Scope has a 15.6-inch high-definition touch screen, which offers much space for analyzing various signals simultaneously and therefore help to improve the developers efficiency.
08 November 2023 - Pico Technology, a provider of PC-based oscilloscopes and data acquisition solutions, announced the addition of the SENT SPC Protocol Decoder to the PicoScope 7 toolset. The new decoder enhances the automotive testing capabilities of the widely acclaimed PicoScope range of oscilloscopes. SENT (“Single Edge Nibble Transmission”) and the superset SENT SPC (“Short PWM Code”) protocols are widely used in automotive applications.
