Saelig introduces the 16GHz PicoScope 9404-16 SXRTO

Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced the PicoScope 9404-16 SXRTO, a 16GHz sampler-extended real-time oscilloscope which extends the range of a preceding 5GHz model. Designed to analyze repetitive or clock-derived signals, it features four high-resolution 12-bit channels driven by up to 5TS/s (0.2ps) equivalent-time sampling (ETS). The wide-band inputs can accurately measure transitions as fast as 22ps, pulses down to 45ps wide, and permits clock performance and eye diagram analysis of up to 11Gb/s gigabit signals (to third harmonic). In addition, the real-time broadband sampling modes can support analysis for other common RF signals such as wireless frequencies of 900MHz, 2.4 and 5.5GHz and upwards. Pico’s SXRTO instrument architecture reduces the cost of broadband time-domain sampling for repetitive signal or clock-related applications.

Saelig intros Siglent SDS2000X Plus Digital Oscilloscopes

Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced the new Siglent SDS2000X Plus Digital Oscilloscope Series consisting of four models: one 2-channel 100MHz bandwidth (software upgradeable to 350MHz) and three 4-channel models (100/200/350MHz.) The 350MHz models can be upgraded to 500MHz on two independent channels. A large 10.1” capacitive touch-screen supports multi-touch gestures. The oscilloscope range also offers a 10-bit acquisition mode that uses oversampling to achieve higher resolution than most scopes. Combined with the lowest vertical setting of 500μV/div, the X Plus series can display extremely small signal details. The 4-channel models all feature dual 2GSa/s ADCs and also dual 200Mpt memory modules. This enhanced memory depth enables a high sample rate at larger time/div settings. This is valuable when analyzing high frequency content on slowly changing signals by providing the detail needed, regardless of time-base settings.

What can you do with a 5GHz PicoScope 9400 SXRTO?

This video https://youtu.be/4JfPAeJXDfM shows you how to do 3 things with a 5GHz PicoScope 9400 SXRTO oscilloscope:

1. Narrow pulse or impulse characterization
2. Data eyes, masks, margins and measurements
3. Amplitude and pulse modulation envelopes
The PicoScope 9404-05 is the first of a new class of oscilloscopes that provide the combined benefits of real-time and equivalent-time sampling with very high analog bandwidth. The PicoScope 9404-05 has four high-bandwidth (5GHz) 50 ohm input channels, each with its own advanced 12-bit ADC that provide timing and display resolutions for accurately measuring and visualizing high-speed repetitive analog and data signals. This tool is valuable for capturing pulse and step transitions to 70ps, impulses down to 140ps, and clocks and data eyes to 3Gb/s.

This unique PC-based high-resolution 5GHz oscilloscope brings high-speed performance into a price bracket that is half or less compared with traditional benchtop solutions. Most high-bandwidth applications tend to involve repetitive signals or clock-related data streams.  These are ideal for analysis by equivalent-time sampling (ETS) systems. The 9404 SXRTO is extremely fast: with fast acquisitions running at up to 2 million triggered captures per second, ETS, persistence displays and statistics all build up quickly.
