General Features
2 or 4 analog channels
MSO models with 16 digital channels
Up to 100 MHz bandwidth
Up to 1 GS/s sampling rate
Up to 128 MS capture memory
Built-in arbitrary waveform generator
USB-connected and powered
Decode over 38 serial protocols as standard
The PicoScope 2000 Series offers you a choice of 2-channel and 4-channel oscilloscopes, plus mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) with 2 analog + 16 digital inputs. All models feature a spectrum analyzer, function generator, arbitrary waveform generator and serial bus analyzer, and the MSO models also include a logic analyzer.
The PicoScope 2000A models all deliver unbeatable value for money, with excellent waveform visualization and measurement to 25 MHz for a range of analog and digital electronic and embedded system applications. They are ideal for education, hobby and field service use.
The PicoScope 2000B models have the added benefits of deep memory (up to 128 MS), higher bandwidth (up to 100 MHz) and faster waveform update rates, giving you the performance you need to carry out advanced analysis of your waveform, including serial decoding and plotting measurements against time.
The PicoScope 2000 MSO models include digital channels, enabling you to accurately time-correlate analog signals. Digital channels may be grouped and displayed as a bus, with each bus value displayed in hex, binary or decimal or as a level (for DAC testing). You can set advanced triggers across both the analog and digital channels.
The PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes are compact enough to fit easily into your laptop bag along with all their probes and leads. These modern alternatives to bulky benchtop devices are ideal for a wide range of applications including design, test, education, service, monitoring, fault-finding and repair, and are perfect for engineers on the move.

VIEW your waveform with a low-cost USB-powered and connected oscilloscope.
All standard PicoScope features are included: automatic measurements, serial decoding, persistence displays, mask limit testing, spectrum analysis, arbitrary waveform generator and more.
ANALYZE your waveform with a high-performance USB-powered and connected oscilloscope.
Deep memory allows you to capture over long time periods at high sampling rates. You can then zoom in on your data without having to recapture. This is essential when you need to analyze one-off events with detailed timing resolution. In fact, some PicoScope 2000 Series models can capture 100 ms waveforms with 1 ns resolution. In contrast, the same 100 ms waveform captured by an oscilloscope with a 10 megasample memory would have just 10 ns resolution.
The arbitrary waveform generator can store complex waveforms in its large memory buffer, allowing you to test your design with realistic inputs.
