High-Resolution Oscilloscopes
Bisinfotech|October 2023
Since 1991, Pico Technology has played a pioneering role in the development of PC oscilloscopes. These compact devices, along with traditional full-sized digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs), account for most of the oscilloscopes sold today.
High-Resolution Oscilloscopes

The driving force behind all of these instruments has been digital electronics. As clock speeds in digital circuits increase, manufacturers have responded by designing scopes with faster sampling rates and higher bandwidths. Unfortunately, analog designers have been left behind: the quest for higher speed has been at the expense of dynamic performance and resolution. To give analog designers the tools they need, we designed the PicoScope high-resolution and flexible-resolution oscilloscopes.

Today's electronic designs employ a wide range of signal types: analog, digital, serial (both high- and low-speed), parallel, audio, video, power distribution and so on. All need to be debugged, measured and validated to ensure that the device under test is functioning correctly and within specification.

PicoScope 5000D FlexRes hardware employs multiple high-resolution ADCs at the input channels in different time-interleaved and parallel combinations to optimize either the sampling rate to 1 GS/s at 8 bits, the resolution to 16 bits at 62.5 MS/s, or other combinations in between - you select the most appropriate hardware resolution for the requirements of each measurement.

2 and 4 channel models are available, all featuring a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 connection, providing lightning-fast saving of waveforms while retaining compatibility with older USB standards. The PicoSDK software development kit supports continuous streaming to the host computer at rates up to 125 MS/s. The product is small and light, and operates silently thanks to its low-power fanless design.

Supported by the free-of-charge and regularly updated PicoScope software, the PicoScope 5000D Series offers an ideal, cost-effective package for many applications, including design, research, test, education, service and repair

Tata Elxsi's Implemented Cybersecurity Measures for Network Transformation

Just as operators can design network rollout and operations as intent, this philosophy extends seamlessly to security. Our platforms possess the ability to analyze data traffic, identify necessary security measures, and propose security designs as intents. Operators can either adopt these suggested intents or craft their own, ensuring the security of their cloud-native workloads aligns precisely with their operational goals. This strategy not only streamlines the security implementation process but also empowers operators with greater control and flexibility in safeguarding their networks.
