The latest release of PoScope4 introduces new features and improvements 1-wire protocol decoder We’re introducing new 1-wire protocol decoder including 1-wire sensor decoder for most popular 1-wire sensors. Bug fixes Cross cursor was displaying wrong time notation when used in analyze mode or in player mode in recorder display. Moving overview display didn’t refresh time … Read more
Oscilloscope probe compensation is a procedure to reduce impact of probes on measured signal. We will show that on our Mega50 USB oscilloscope from our measurement instruments. We have to keep in mind that oscilloscope probes aren’t just pieces of wire with pointy end attached to them. Here are two important aspects to consider when selecting … Read more
The latest release of PoScope4 introduces improvements 1. Improved timebase. In previous versions timebase calculation was based upon samples displayed and multiplication factor which resulted in strange and sometimes useless timebase values. Now we improved data alignment in a way that timebase values always coresponds to 1, 2, 5 (per div) values pattern. For example: 1ns/div, … Read more
The latest release of PoScope4 introduces new features and performance improvements Axes alignment – Stacked mode Switching between two different axes alignment modes. Axes are by default aligned to left and right sides of display – parallel. New alignment option is called Stacked. All axes are aligned to the left side of chart and positioned each … Read more
USB oscilloscope key performance properties In previous post we exposed key performance properties to consider when choosing USB oscilloscope. Let’s have a look at our two USB oscilloscopes from our measurement instruments and let’s compare them side by side. PoScope Mega1 PoScope Mega1 is lowest power consumption USB oscilloscope, function generator and logic analyzer in one … Read more
We’re proud to introduce new USB oscilloscope PoScopeMega50 an affordable MSO (mixed signal oscilloscope). In short, it is six-in-one PC-based measurement instrument with USB connectivity. It covers 2 channel oscilloscope, 2 channel spectrum analyzer, 2 channel recorder, 16-channel logic analyzer with protocol decoding features. PoScopeMega50 PoScopeMega50 is low power consumption USB oscilloscope and it draws only 150mA therefor the best choice for … Read more
PoScopeMega1+ as signal generator Remark: There are two versions of PoscopeMega1. The older one has no signal generator and only two BNC connectors. The new one named PoScopeMega1+ has third additional BNC connector dedicated to signal generator. This article describes newer version PoScopeMega1+ which is also available in our store here. Although PoScopeMega1+ is by … Read more
Decoding I2C protocol Inter–integrated circuit (I2C) simplifies the hardware part of electronic devices. It consists of only 2 wires. One is used for clock synchronization, the other one is for data transfer purposes. On each I2C bus, you will find one master and multiple slaves. Most I2C busses work on frequencies up to 100 kHz, … Read more
Logic analyzer is an electronic measurement instrument, capable of capturing and displaying multiple signals from a digital circuits. With this powerful tool you can observe many digital signals at the same time and perform exact time measurements. It is useful for various tasks in electronics design, testing and repair: analyze timing errors, verify timing diagrams, … Read more
