PicoVNA 5: A Game Changer Amongst USB Instrument Software
We are proud to have launched our game-changing new software platform for PicoVNA USB-controlled vector network analyzers, PicoVNA 5! The software is cross-platform - available on Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems, and will run on PC's, Mac and embedded systems, X86 64 and AArch 64, down to and including
Raspberry Pi 3B+.
PicoVNA 5 has been designed with test system and OEM embed integrators in mind, providing programmer access through SCPI and API interfaces, and SDK examples for Matlab, Labview, Python, C, C# and C++. Pico has also ensured that PicoVNA 5 benefits from punishing Beta testing within advanced and demanding remote applications like yours.
PicoVNA 5 incorporates direct-to-developers feedback, through which users can provide ‘in the moment’ feedback, new feature requests, and guidance to their own future development priorities. The user can also report problems through this feedback method, should any be found. We hope that this will be the best and fastest path to optimizing our software for you, the user.

Serial Decoding in PicoScope 7
Did you know that our PicoScope 7 software includes a varied database of free serial decoders? We currently have over 30 supported serial protocols as standard, each of which offer different capabilities to decode, display, and analyze waveforms. Keep an eye out, as this list is constantly expanding!
Among these protocols is SENT bus decoding. SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission), SAE standard J2716, is a one way, point-to-point protocol for transmission of signal values from sensors to a controller. It is used mainly in automotive applications and enables reliable transmission of high-resolution data with lower cost than standards such as CAN, and higher bit rate than LIN.
SENT data format is determined by what is best suited to the application. Once the format and data set have been selected, it is usually fixed in the design or configured with nonvolatile memory so that the data is continually transmitted on power up.
The above video provides a quick guide to using serial protocols in PicoScope 7, or you can find out more in our A to Z library listing.
