PicoScope 4x24 Series USB PC Oscilloscopes, 2/4 Channels, 12 bit, 20 MHz
The PicoScopes 4224/4424 are high-resolution 2 or 4-channel USB PC oscilloscopes for general and scientific work and field use. Thanks to the 12 bit resolution (extended resolution mode up to 16 bit) and an accuracy of 1%, the instruments are also ideally suited for noise, vibration and mechanical analysis. The input range from ±50 mV to ±100 V (full scale) ensures that the oscilloscopes can handle both weak signals from sensors and higher voltages from power supply circuits and drives. Another advantage is the deep 32 MS memory, which allows the oscilloscopes to acquire data for more than 400 ms at maximum sampling rate.
- 2 or 4 channels.
- Bandwidth 20 MHz (10 MHz in ±50 mV range).
- 12 bit resolution, 16 bit enhanced resolution.
- 80 MS/s realtime sample rate (80 MS/s for 1 or 2 channels, 20 MS/s for 3 or 4 channels).
- 32 MS buffer size.
- ±200 V overvoltage protection.
- USB 2.0 interface. USB-powered.
- Kit with carrying case and accessories.
- On request: IEPE model.
