2-channel PC oscilloscope PP960, 100 MHz, 256 MSa/s, 3.5 ns
Power, portability, and performance
The PicoScope 3000 Series PC oscilloscopes are small, light, and portable, while offering the high-performance specifications required by engineers in the lab or on the move. These oscilloscopes offer 2 or 4 analog channels, plus an additional 16 digital channels on the MSO models. The flexible, high‑resolution display options enable you to view and analyze each signal in fine detail. Operating together with the PicoScope 6 software, these devices offer an ideal, cost-effective package for many applications, including embedded systems design, research, test, education, service, and repair.
High bandwidth and sampling rate
Despite their compact size and low cost, there is no compromise on performance. With input bandwidths up to 200 MHz, the PicoScope 3000 Series scopes can measure a wide range of signal types, from DC and baseband into RF and all the way up to VHF. A real-time sampling rate of 1 GS/s allows detailed display of high frequencies. For repetitive signals, the maximum effective sampling rate can be boosted to 10 GS/s using Equivalent Time Sampling (ETS) mode. With a sampling rate of at least five times the input bandwidth, PicoScope 3000 Series oscilloscopes are well equipped to capture high-frequency signal detail.
High-end features as standard
Buying a PicoScope is not like making a purchase from other manufacturers, where optional extras considerably increase the price. With our scopes, high-end features such as resolution enhancement, mask limit testing, serial decoding, advanced triggering, a spectrum analyzer, math channels, XY mode, segmented memory, a function generator, and an arbitrary waveform generator are all included in the price. To protect your investment, both the PC software and the firmware inside the scope can be updated. Pico Technology have a long history of providing new features through free-of-charge software downloads. Users of our products reward us by becoming lifelong
customers and frequently recommending PicoScopes to their colleagues.
Deep memory
PicoScope 3000 Series oscilloscopes offer a huge buffer memory, allowing them to sustain high sampling rates across long timebases. For example, using the 512 MS buffer, the PicoScope 3206D and 3406D models can sample at 1 GS/s all the way down to 50 ms/div giving a 500 ms total capture time.
