Summary of PICOSCOPE 4 CHANNEL 5GHZ SAMPLER-EXTENDED REAL TIME OSCILLOSCOPE
The PicoScope 9404-05 is a PC-based 5 GHz, four-channel 50 ohm oscilloscope with 12-bit ADCs that combines real-time and equivalent-time sampling to deliver high-speed, high-resolution measurements at lower cost than traditional benchtop units. It captures transitions to 70 ps, impulses to 140 ps, and clocks/data eyes to 3 Gb/s, offers full-bandwidth channel triggers, pre-trigger ETS, PicoSample 4 software with free updates, 4k-capable high-resolution displays with four independent 1 ps zoom channels, and SXRTO mode supporting up to 2 million triggered captures per second.
Parts used in the PicoScope 9404-05:
- PC-based oscilloscope chassis (PicoScope 9404-05)
- Four 5 GHz 50 ohm input channels
- Four advanced 12-bit ADCs
- Full-bandwidth trigger circuitry for each channel
- Equivalent-time sampling (ETS) hardware
- PicoSample 4 software
- High-resolution display output (4k and larger support)
- SXRTO acquisition system (Sampler-Extended Real Time Oscilloscope)
The PicoScope 9404-05 oscilloscope brings very high speed performance at less than half the cost of traditional benchtop solutions.
Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced the PicoScope 9404-05 5GHz oscilloscope – a unique PC-based high-resolution device which brings affordable high-speed performance by combining the benefits of real-time and equivalent-time sampling with very high analog bandwidth. The PicoScope 9404-05 has four 5GHz 50 ohm input channels, each with its own advanced 12-bit ADC, which provide the required timing and display resolution for accurately measuring and visualizing high-speed repetitive analog and data signals. This tool can capture pulse and step transitions to 70ps, impulses down to 140ps, and clocks and data eyes to 3Gb/s.
The PicoScope 9404-05 has a built-in full-bandwidth trigger for each channel, with pre-trigger ETS (equivalent-time sampling) capture available to well above the Nyquist sampling rate. The PicoSample 4 software is provided at no extra charge and is derived from previous Pico products. It benefits from more than ten years of development and optimization. As they become available, new software features and updates are provided at no additional cost.
The high-resolution software display can be resized to fit any window, filling 4k and even larger for multiple monitors. Four independent zoom channels can show different views of captured data to a resolution of 1ps. Most of the controls and status panels can be shown or hidden according to various needs, allowing optimal use of the display area.
Most high-bandwidth measurement applications tend to involve repetitive signals or clock-related data streams. These are ideal for analysis by equivalent-time sampling systems. The 9404-05 Sampler-Extended Real Time Oscilloscope (SXRTO), with acquisitions running at up to 2 million triggered captures per second, enables very fast signals to build up in the display quickly.
