Conrad is to supply a series of physically-small 12bit oscilloscopes from Voltcraft, that stretches form 70 to 250MHz, and from two channels to four. Across they measure 260mm. “Their compact lightweight design makes these the perfect choice for field work and classroom alike,” said Conrad. The “built-in HMDI port allows mirroring display content to large screens”. Maximum sample rate is ...

Yokogawa has created a differential probe with 400MHz 3dB bandwidth and a maximum input voltage of ±2kV. “Applications for, and production of, next-generation power devices utilising silicon-carbide technology necessitates ultra-precise measurement of high-voltage and higher speed signals,” according to the company. PBDH0400 is the name, and 702922 is the part number. Due to its interface connector and power supply, it can ...

Keysight has introduced a series of 14bit general purpose oscilloscopes with up to 1GHz bandwidth. The HD3 Series is “built from the ground up with a custom asic deep memory architecture”, said the company, while also saying that it is “leveraging custom hardware technology from the UXR Series”. There are two channel and four channel versions, both with 16 digital ...

Tektronix has taken its TAP1500 1.5GHz active single-ended probe, and stretched its 1.3m cable to seven metres “with no loss in performance”, according to the company. TAP1500L is the name of the extended version. “Our customers can’t always have their oscilloscopes close to their device-under-test,” said Tektronix probe manager Andrew Mumford, “and the longer cable benefits customers who use flying ...

Teledyne LeCroy has added lower bandwidth options to its 8000HD range of 12bit oscilloscopes, which now includes models at 6 (8060HD), 8 (8080HD), 13 (8130HD), and 16GHz (8160HD). This bandwidth is available through the physically-smaller 50Ω input connectors, while the BNC connectors offer 2GHz (-3dB) in 50Ω mode and 500MHz in 1MΩ mode. They do not get the 1.8mm coaxial ...

Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a rack-mount 2GHz display-less oscilloscope with eight channels that fits into a 2U (89mm) slot. It has eight 2.5Gsample/s channels that can be interleaved to provide four 5Gsample/s channels, and is part of the new MXO 5C series of scopes which have been cut down from the recently-introduced display-inclusive MXO 5 series. As well as ...

Siglent has a new flagship in its oscilloscope range, with 4GHz bandwidth, 12bit resolution and 20Gsample/s. SDS7404A, as it will be known, has four analogue channels and 16 digital channels, and a noise floor is as low as 220μVrms at 4GHz bandwidth. At 20Gsample/s, ENOB (effective number of bits) is typically 7.3bit (50Ω, 50mV/div, -1dBFS/47.999MHz input). 20Gsample/s is only available ...

Rigol Technologies has added 12bit oscilloscopes to its line-up, with a compact design which is flexible to use for both on-site and desktop testing”, according to the company. DHO900 oscilloscopes (right) have four analogue channels 16 digital channels and are available in 125 or 250MHz bandwidths, with or without an arbitrary waveform generator and Bode plot capability. Shared between the ...

Yokogawa has announced a high-resolution extension to its DLM5000 series of scopes, with 12bit eight channel instruments at 500MHz and 350MHz bandwidth. Max sample rate is 2.5Gsample/s. “The DLM5000HD series expands Yokogawa’s oscilloscope lineup with models that deliver higher resolution for more accurate waveform analysis, and come with features that improve usability and enable easier setup,” according to the company. ...

Dutch test gear maker TiePie Engineering has introduced a module that can wirelessly time-synchronise and remotely access multiple instances of its PC oscilloscopes. ‘Wireless multi instrument synchronization module’ WCMI-8 can synchronise series 5 and 6 of both the company’s WiFiScope and Handyscope instruments, at up to 400m range “combining them to a single instrument”, it said. The 868MHz module is ...
