Portable 60 to 300 MHz Oscilloscopes for efficient debug

Munich, Germany - The portable WaveAce oscilloscopes improve troubleshooting and shortens debug time by providing specific features such as long memory, a color display, extensive measurement capabilities, and advanced triggering. A streamlined, time-saving user interface provides quick access to all important controls. With its USB host and device ports the scope series easily connects to a memory stick, PC or printer. The variety of standard acquisition modes and advanced triggers simplifies capturing even the most complex waveforms making the instrument a valuable tool for design, debug and troubleshooting.

Low-cost 2-channel digital scopes feature extensive debug functions

The new series is available in 2-channel models with bandwidths of 60 MHz, 100 MHz, 200 MHz and 300 MHz, all models have color displays a maximum sample rate of 2 GS/s and up to 8 kpts/ch memory. The long memory allows users to capture full sample rate acquisitions that are 2 to 3 times longer compared with comparable products. Improving how a user can understand and analyze waveforms the WaveAce has 32 built-in automated parameters including advanced timing parameters for skew, phase and edge to edge measurements between channels. Additional features such as Pass/Fail testing, user definable digital filters and a waveform sequence recorder all simplify and shorten debug time.

The high performance and large feature set of the scope series is controlled by an intuitive user interface with 11 different languages and streamlined front panel. All important controls and menus are accessed from the front panel with a single button press. All position and offsets can be reset by simply pressing the knob, pressing the V/Div knob will switch between fixed and variable gain and pressing the T/div knob will toggle between zoom modes. Buttons on the front panel that open and close menus or switch modes are backlit to let the user know exactly what mode the WaveAce is operating in.

Documenting results and saving screenshots, waveforms and setups is easy with the scope. Internal storage can hold up to 20 waveforms and 20 setups. Mass storage can be done by connecting a USB memory device directly to the front panel of the oscilloscope. The rear panel USB port allows for direct printer connection or connection to a PC for control with a software utility called EasyScope. It enables remote control through a virtual front panel and also provides an easy method for saving waveforms and screenshots directly to a PC. The WaveAce is available in 6 different models.
