• The PicoScope 3000D Series MSOs are available with analog bandwidths from 50 MHz to 200 MHz. Maximum digital input frequency is 100 MHz, equivalent to a data rate of 200 Mb/s (5 ns pulse width) on each channel.
• All models come with a USB 3.0 interface and are fully compatible with USB 2.0, giving high performance and fast update rates with both port types.
• Like all PicoScopes, they display waveforms in a resizable window on your PC's screen, giving you an uncluttered space for multiple high-resolution analog and digital traces. It's easy to save, share and analyze waveforms, with all of your PC's networking, storage and processing facilities instantly available.
• The deep memory buffers of 64 to 512 megasamples, much larger than other scopes costing several times more, allow long captures even at fast real-time sampling rates of up to 1 gigasample per second.
• Hardware-accelerated data processing maintains smooth and rapid display updates even with very large capture sizes.

The PicoScope 3000D Series offers a comprehensive suite of advanced features as standard, including math channels, automatic measurements with statistics, spectrum analysis and color persistence display mode. Also built in are advanced digital triggering with pulse width, window, dropout, channel logic, digital pattern and other qualifiers, mask limit testing and alarms. Serial decoding supports SPI, I²C, I2S, RS-232/UART, CAN, LIN and FlexRay protocols on up to 20 analog and digital channels, even with a mixture of protocols at the same time. All these features are included in the purchase price, not expensive optional extras as on many competing products.

A free SDK is available for developing applications in popular programming languages such as C, Microsoft Visual Basic® and Excel VBA, and National Instruments LabVIEW®, with example code included.

The 16 digital inputs can be displayed individually or in arbitrary groups labelled with binary, decimal or hexadecimal values. A separate logic threshold from -5 V to +5 V can be defined for each 8-bit input port. The digital trigger can be activated by any bit pattern combined with an optional transition on any input.

Advanced logic triggers can be set on either the analog or the digital input channels, or both.

Serial Decoding For Digital Signals

The PicoScope 3000 Series MSO models bring extra power to the serial decoding features outlined in Serial decoding for analog signals. You can decode serial data on all analog and digital inputs simultaneously, giving you up to 20 channels of data with any combination of serial protocols!
