High Speed (100MS/s), Dual Channel Oscilloscopes / Analyzers

pc oscilloscope software
  • Highest Speed and Performance
  • 100 MS/s Digital Storage Scope
  • A fraction of the cost of comparable benchtop scopes
  • Deep 32,000 sample buffer memory
  • Oscilloscope / spectrum analyser and data logging software included in the price

The ADC-200 dual-channel PC based oscilloscopes offer performance only previously available on expensive ‘benchtop’ scopes. As a general purpose lab scope, the large memory and advanced trigger functions make it ideal for designers of microcontroller and other digital circuits, whilst the spectrum analyser is an essential tool for tracking down noise in power supplies and amplifiers. For field engineers servicing and repairing equipment, a library of waveforms showing the correct signals at each test point (and typical problems) can save valuable time.

Advanced trigger modes help track down intermittent faults. For example, to find a fault with a fire / burglar alarm, the ADC-200 can be left running overnight with it's ‘save to disk on trigger’ option enabled: when the fault occurs, a trace will be saved to disk complete with a time/date stamp. To locate errors in digital signals, the display overwrite option can be used to highlight erroneous events even if they only occur once.

The ADC-200 is available in three models, offering sample rates of 20, 50 and 100 MS/s (100,000,000 samples per second) all with 8 bit resolution.

The high speed of the ADC-200 means that it is capable of capturing video waveforms pictured here
