PicoScope® 6000 Series
Ultra-deep-memory, high-performance oscilloscopes and MSOs
A smarter scope for faster debug
The PicoScope 6000E Series fixed-resolution and FlexRes oscilloscopes provide 8 to 12 bits of vertical resolution, 1 GHz bandwidth and 5 GS/s sampling rate, and now includes the four-channel PicoScope 6428E-D which offers 3 GHz bandwidth and 10 GS/s maximum sampling rate.
Models with four or eight analog channels have the timing and amplitude resolution you need to reveal critical signal integrity issues such as timing errors, glitches, dropouts, crosstalk and metastability issues.
Typical applications
These instruments, with PicoScope software, are ideal for design engineers working with high-performance embedded systems, signal processing, power electronics, mechatronics and automotive designs, and for researchers and scientists working on multichannel high-performance experiments in physics labs, particle accelerators and similar facilities.
The PicoScope 6000E Application Programming Interface (API) provides programming access to the full set of advanced hardware features and can be used to develop diverse custom and OEM applications.
Best-in-class bandwidth, sampling rate and memory depth
Capture time at maximum sampling rate: 200 ms at 5 GS/s (10 GS/s for the PicoScope 6428E-D)
The PicoScope 6000E Series oscilloscopes, with up to 1 GHz analog bandwidth complemented by a real-time sampling rate of 5 GS/s, can display single-shot pulses with 200 ps time resolution.
The PicoScope 6428E-D with up to 3 GHz analog bandwidth complemented by a real-time sampling rate of 10 GS/s can display single-shot pulses with 100 ps time resolution.
The PicoScope 6000E Series gives you the deepest capture memory available as standard on any oscilloscope – up to 4 GS in total.
This ultra-deep memory allows the oscilloscope to capture 200 ms waveforms at its maximum sampling rate of 5 GS/s. The PicoScope 6428E-D can capture 200 ms waveforms at 10 GS/s.
Custom applications using PicoSDK can allocate the scope’s whole memory to a single waveform and sustain the maximum 5 GS/s sampling rate for even longer captures, up to 800 ms. The 6428E-D can sustain a maximum 10 GS/s sampling rate for 400 ms at 8-bit resolution.
The SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface and hardware acceleration ensure that the display is smooth and responsive even with long captures.
The PicoScope 6000E Series gives you the waveform memory, resolution and analysis tools that you need to perform stringent testing of today’s high‑performance embedded computers and next-generation embedded system designs.
