PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes 2-channel oscilloscope: 2206B, 2207B and 2208B Introducing the PicoScope 2000 Series The PicoScope 2000 Series offers you a choice of 2-channel and 4-channel oscilloscopes, plus mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) with 2 analog + 16 digital inputs. All models feature a spectrum analyzer, function generator, arbitrary waveform generator and serial bus analyzer, and the MSO models also include a logic analyzer. The PicoScope 2000A models all deliver unbeatable value for money, with excellent waveform visualization and measurement to 25 MHz for a range of analog and digital electronic and embedded system applications. They are ideal for education, hobby and field service use. The PicoScope 2000B models have the added benefits of deep memory (up to 128 MS), higher bandwidth (up to 100 MHz) and faster waveform update rates, giving you the performance you need to carry out advanced analysis of your waveform, including serial decoding and plotting frequency against time. Advanced oscilloscope display The PicoScope 6 software takes advantage of the display size, resolution and processing power of your PC – in this case displaying four analog signals, a zoomed view of two of the signals (undergoing serial decoding), and a spectrum view of a third, all at the same time. Unlike a conventional benchtop oscilloscope, the size of the display is limited only by the size of your computer monitor. The software is also easy to use on touch-screen devices – you can pinch to zoom and drag to scroll. 4-channel oscilloscope 2-channel oscilloscope: 2204A and 2205A 2+16-channel mixed-signal oscilloscope (MSO)

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Powerful, portable and super-small The PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes are compact enough to fit easily into your laptop bag along with all their probes and leads. These modern alternatives to bulky benchtop devices are ideal for a wide range of applications including design, test, education, service, monitoring, fault-finding and repair, and are perfect for engineers on the move. Fast sampling The PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes provide fast real-time sampling rates of up to 1 GS/s on the analog channels. This represents a timing resolution of 1 ns. For repetitive analog signals, equivalent-time sampling (ETS) mode can boost the maximum effective sampling rate up to 10 GS/s, allowing even finer resolution down to 100 ps. All scopes support pre-trigger and post-trigger capture using the full memory depth. High-end features as standard Buying a PicoScope is not like making a purchase from other oscilloscope companies, where increased functionality can considerably raise the price. PicoScopes are all- inclusive instruments, with no need for expensive upgrades to unlock the hardware. Other advanced features such as resolution enhancement, mask limit testing, serial decoding, advanced triggering, automatic measurements, math channels (including the ability to plot frequency and duty cycle against time), XY mode and segmented memory are all included in the price. Flexibility The PicoScope software offers a breadth of advanced features with a user-friendly interface. As well as the standard Windows installation, PicoScope Beta software also works effectively on Linux and macOS operating systems, giving you the freedom to operate your PicoScope from your chosen platform. Unique commitment to product support Your PicoScope gets better the longer you use it, thanks to the regular free updates we supply for both the PC software and the oscilloscope firmware throughout the life of the product. The performance and functionality of the scope both keep improving, without you paying a penny more than the purchase price. This level of support, combined with the personal service provided by our technical and sales support teams, is reflected in consistently excellent customer feedback. High signal integrity At Pico Technology we’re proud of the dynamic performance of our products. Careful front-end design and shielding reduce noise, crosstalk and harmonic distortion. Decades of oscilloscope design experience can be seen in improved pulse response and bandwidth flatness. The result is simple: when you probe a circuit, you can trust in the waveform you see on the screen. USB connectivity The USB connection makes printing, copying, saving, and emailing your data from the field quick and easy. The high-speed USB interface allows fast data transfer, while USB powering removes the need to carry around a bulky external power supply.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Deep capture memory PicoScope 2000 Series ‘B’ models have waveform capture buffers ranging from 32 to 128 megasamples – many times larger than competing scopes. Deep memory enables the capture of long-duration waveforms at maximum sampling speed. In fact, some PicoScope 2000 Series models can capture 100 ms waveforms with 1 ns resolution. In contrast, the same 100 ms waveform captured by an oscilloscope with a 10 megasample memory would have just 10 ns resolution. Deep memory can be useful in other ways too: PicoScope 6 lets you divide the capture memory into a number of segments, up to a maximum of 10 000. You can set up a trigger condition to store a separate capture in each segment, with as little as 1 µs dead time between captures. Once you have acquired the data, you can step through the memory one segment at a time until you find the event you are looking for. Powerful tools are included to allow you to manage and examine all of this data. As well as functions such as mask limit testing and color persistence mode, the PicoScope 6 software enables you to zoom into your waveform by a factor of several million. The Zoom Overview window allows you to easily control the size and location of the zoom area. Other tools, such as the waveform buffer, serial decoding and hardware acceleration work with the deep memory, making the PicoScope 2000 Series some of the best-value oscilloscopes on the market.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes PicoScope 6 software The PicoScope software display can be as basic or as detailed as you need. Begin with a single view of one channel, and then expand the display to include up to four live channels (model-dependent), plus math channels and reference waveforms. Display multiple scope and spectrum views with automatic or custom layouts and quickly access all the most frequently-used controls from the toolbars, leaving the display clear for your waveforms. Tools menu: Set up custom probes, serial decoding, reference waveforms, mask tests, alarms and macros from the Tools menu. Buffer Navigation toolbar: PicoScope can record up to 10 000 of your most recent waveforms. Click through the buffer to look for intermittent events, or use the Buffer Overview thumbnails. Zooming and Scrolling toolbar: It’s easy to zoom in on waveforms, with straightforward zoom-in, zoom-out and pan tools. Signal generator: Generates standard signals or arbitrary waveforms. Includes frequency sweep mode. Ruler legend: Absolute and differential ruler measurements are listed here. Rulers: Each axis has two rulers that you can drag across the screen to make quick measurements. Zoom Overview window: Click and drag for quick navigation and adjustment of zoomed views. Auto Setup button: Let PicoScope configure the collection time and input range for a correctly scaled display. Spectrum view: View frequency-domain data alongside time-domain waveforms or in the dedicated spectrum mode. Channel options: Adjust settings specific to each channel here. Trigger marker: Drag the marker to adjust the trigger threshold and pre-trigger time. Adjustable axes: Move the vertical axes up and down the display and vary their scale and offset. PicoScope can also rearrange the axes automatically. Trigger toolbar: Quick access to the main controls, with advanced triggers in a pop-up window. Automatic measurements: Add as many calculated time- and frequency-domain measurements as you need, along with statistical parameters showing their variability. Touchscreen controls: Handy buttons make fine adjustment easy on touchscreen devices.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Oscilloscope controls: PicoScope’s full analog-domain controls, including zoom, filtering, and function generator, are all available in MSO digital signal mode. Show by level: Group bits into fields and then display as an analog level. Split-screen display: PicoScope can display both analog and digital signals at the same time. The split- screen display can be adjusted to give more or less space to the analog waveforms. Analog waveforms: View analog waveforms time-correlated with digital inputs. Digital channels button: Set up and display digital inputs. View analog and digital signals on the same timebase. Mixed digital and analog signals The PicoScope 2000 MSO models add 16 digital channels to their two analog channels, enabling you to accurately time-correlate analog and digital channels. You can group digital channels together and display them as a bus, with each bus value displayed in hex, binary or decimal, or as a level (for DAC testing). You can set advanced triggers across both the analog and digital channels. The digital inputs also bring extra power to the serial decoding options. You can decode serial data on all analog and digital channels simultaneously, giving you up to 20 channels of data – for example decoding multiple SPI, I²C, CAN bus, LIN bus and FlexRay signals all at the same time. Display format: Display selected bits individually or as groups in binary, hex, or decimal format. Advanced triggers: Additional Digital and Logic trigger options are available for digital channels. Rulers: Drawn across both analog and digital panes so signal timings can be compared. Rename: The digital channels and groups can be renamed. You can expand or collapse groups in the digital view.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Persistence mode PicoScope 6 persistence mode options allow you to see old and new data superimposed, with newer waveforms drawn in a brighter color or deeper shade. This makes it easy to spot glitches and dropouts and estimate their relative frequency – useful for displaying and interpreting complex analog signals such as video waveforms and analog modulation signals. The PicoScope 2000 Series’ hardware acceleration means that, in Fast Persistence mode, waveform update rates of up to 80 000 waveforms per second are achievable. Color-coding or intensity-grading shows which areas are stable and which are intermittent. Choose between analog intensity, digital color and fast display modes or create your own custom setup. Spectrum analyzer The spectrum view plots amplitude against frequency and is ideal for finding noise, crosstalk or distortion in signals. PicoScope 6 uses a fast Fourier transform (FFT) spectrum analyzer, which (unlike a traditional swept spectrum analyzer) can display the spectrum of a single, non-repeating waveform. With a click of a button, you can display a spectrum plot of the active channels, with a maximum frequency of up to 200 MHz. A comprehensive range of settings gives you control over the number of spectrum bins, window functions, scaling (including log/log) and display mode (instantaneous, average or peak-hold). Display multiple spectrum views with different channel selections and zoom factors, and place these alongside time-domain views of the same data. Choose from a number of automatic frequency-domain measurements to add to the display, including THD, THD+N, SNR, SINAD and IMD. You can apply mask limit testing to a spectrum and can even use the AWG and spectrum mode together to perform swept scalar network analysis.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Serial decoding and analysis The PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes include serial decoding capability as standard. The PicoScope 6 software has support for 20 protocols including I2C, SPI, CAN, RS-232, Manchester and DALI. Decoding helps you see what is happening in your design to identify programming and timing errors and check for other signal integrity issues. Timing analysis tools help to show the performance of each design element, identifying parts of the design that need to be improved to optimize overall system performance. You can capture and decode several protocols at a time, in any combination, the only limit being the number of available channels – 18 for MSO models, as you can decode serial data on all analog and digital inputs simultaneously. The ability to observe data flow across a bridge (such as CAN bus in, LIN bus out) is incredibly powerful. The deep memory of the PicoScope 2000B models makes them ideal for serial decoding, as they can handle many thousands of frames of data. GRAPH FORMAT shows the decoded data (in hex, binary, decimal or ASCII) in a timing diagram format, beneath the waveform on a common time axis, with error frames marked in red. You can zoom in on these frames to investigate noise or distortion, and each packet field is assigned a different color, so the data is easy to read. TABLE FORMAT shows a list of the decoded frames, including the data and all flags and identifiers. You can set up filtering conditions to display only the frames you are interested in or search for frames with specified properties. The statistics option reveals more detail about the physical layer such as frame times and voltage levels. PicoScope 6 can also import a spreadsheet to decode the data into user-defined text strings.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Waveform buffer and navigator Ever spotted a glitch on a waveform, but by the time you’ve stopped the scope it’s gone? With PicoScope you no longer need to worry about missing glitches or other transient events, as it can store the last 10 000 waveforms in its circular waveform buffer. The buffer navigator provides an efficient way of navigating and searching through waveforms, effectively letting you turn back time. When carrying out a mask limit test, you can also set the navigator to show only mask fails, enabling you to find any glitches quickly. Mask limit testing Mask limit testing allows you to compare live signals against known good signals, and is designed for production and debugging environments. Simply capture a known good signal, generate a mask around it and then use the alarms to automatically save any waveform (complete with a time stamp) that violates the mask. PicoScope 6 will capture any intermittent glitches and show a failure count in the Measurements window (which you can still use for other measurements). You can also set the waveform buffer navigator to show only mask fails, enabling you to find any glitches quickly. Mask files are easy to edit (numerically or graphically), import and export, and you can simultaneously run mask limit tests on multiple channels and in multiple viewports. Alarms You can program PicoScope 6 to execute actions when certain events occur. The events that can trigger an alarm include mask limit fails, trigger events and buffers full. PicoScope 6 actions include saving a file, playing a sound, executing a program and triggering the arbitrary waveform generator.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Automatic measurements PicoScope allows you to automatically display a table of calculated measurements for troubleshooting and analysis. Using the built-in measurement statistics you can see the average, standard deviation, maximum and minimum of each measurement as well as the live value. You can add as many measurements as you need on each view – 18 different measurements are available in scope mode and 11 in spectrum mode. For information on these measurements, see Automatic Measurements in the Specifications table. Scope mode Spectrum mode Arbitrary waveform and function generator All PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes have a built-in function generator and arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). The function generator can produce sine, square, triangle and DC level waveforms, and many more besides, while the AWG allows you to import waveforms from data files or create and modify them using the built-in graphical AWG editor. As well as level, offset and frequency controls, advanced options allow you to sweep over a range of frequencies. Combined with the advanced spectrum mode, with options including peak hold, averaging and linear/log axes, this creates a powerful tool for testing amplifier and filter responses.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Advanced triggers The PicoScope 2000 Series offers an industry-leading set of advanced triggers including pulse width, windowed and dropout. The digital trigger available on MSO models allows you to trigger the scope when any or all of the 16 digital inputs match a user-defined pattern. You can specify a condition for each channel individually, or set up a pattern for all channels at once using a hexadecimal or binary value. You can also use the logic trigger to combine the digital trigger with an edge or window trigger on any of the analog inputs, for example to trigger on data values in a clocked parallel bus. Digital triggering architecture In 1991, Pico Technology pioneered the use of digital triggering and precision hysteresis using the actual digitized data. Traditionally, digital oscilloscopes have used an analog trigger architecture based on comparators, which can cause time and amplitude errors that cannot always be calibrated out. Additionally, the use of comparators can often limit the trigger sensitivity at high bandwidths and can create a long trigger rearm delay. Pico’s technique of fully digital triggering reduces trigger errors and allows our oscilloscopes to trigger on the smallest signals, even at the full bandwidth, so you can set trigger levels and hysteresis with high precision and resolution. The digital trigger architecture also reduces the rearm delay. Combined with the segmented memory, this enables you to use rapid triggering to capture 10 000 waveforms in 10 ms in 8-bit mode. Custom probes The custom probes feature allows you to correct for gain, attenuation, offsets and nonlinearities in probes, transducers and other sensors, and to measure quantities other than voltages (such as current, power or temperature). Definitions for standard Pico-supplied probes are built in, but you can also create your own using linear scaling or even an interpolated data table, and save them for later use.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes Math channels and filters With PicoScope 6 you can perform a variety of mathematical calculations on your input signals and reference waveforms. Select simple functions such as addition and inversion, or open the equation editor to create complex functions involving filters (lowpass, highpass, bandpass and bandstop filters), trigonometry, exponentials, logarithms, statistics, integrals and derivatives. Display up to eight real or calculated channels in each scope view. If you run out of space, just open another scope view and add more. You can also use math channels to reveal new details in complex signals, for example graphing the changing duty cycle or frequency of your signal over time. Plot frequency against time with PicoScope 6 All oscilloscopes can measure the frequency of a waveform, but often you need to know how that frequency changes over time, which is a difficult measurement to make. The freq math function can do exactly this: in this example, the top waveform’s frequency is being modulated by a ramp function, as plotted in the bottom waveform. A separate math function allows you to plot duty cycle in a similar way.

PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes PicoLog® 6 support All PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes are now supported in PicoLog 6, allowing you to view and record signals on multiple units in one capture. PicoLog 6 allows sample rates of up to 1 kS/s per channel, and is ideal for long-term observation of general parameters, such as voltage or current levels, on several channels at the same time. It is less suitable for waveshape or harmonic analysis: use the PicoScope 6 software for these tasks. You can also use PicoLog 6 to view data from your oscilloscope alongside a data logger or other device. For example, you could measure voltage and current with your PicoScope and plot both against temperature using a TC-08 thermocouple data logger. PicoLog 6 is available for Windows, macOS and Linux, including Raspberry Pi OS.. PicoSDK® – write your own apps Our software development kit, PicoSDK, allows you to write your own software and includes drivers for Windows, macOS and Linux. Example code supplied on our GitHub organization page shows how to interface to third-party software packages such as National Instruments LabVIEW and MathWorks MATLAB. Amongst other features, the drivers support data streaming, a mode that captures continuous gap-free data directly to your PC at rates of up to 125 MS/s, so you are not limited by the size of your scope’s capture memory. Sampling rates in streaming mode are subject to PC specifications and application loading. There is also an active community of PicoScope 6 users who share both code and whole applications on our Test and Measurement Forum and the PicoApps section of the website. The Frequency Response Analyzer shown here is one of the most popular of these applications.
