5 GS/s digitizer in portable USB format
Unlike systems such as PCI and PXI that require a specialized backplane or mainframe, the USB-connected PicoScope 6407 is a compact, low-cost instrument that can be plugged into any Windows PC or laptop. The software development kit supplied allows the digitizer to be integrated into any programming environment that supports C calling conventions. This includes languages such as Visual Basic, C++ and C#, and instrumentation software such as National Instruments LabVIEW. Example programs are included. The device also offers a built-in function generator and arbitrary waveform generator, and an external trigger input.
The unit can also be used with Pico Technology’s PicoScope software, which provides all of the functions of an oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer as well as advanced features such as automatic measurements with statistics, color persistence, mask limit testing, advanced triggering and serial decoding. The digitizer connects to any Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 computer with a USB 2.0 port.
