PicoScope 9402-16

Product overview

The PicoScope 9400 Series sampler-extended real-time oscilloscopes (SXRTOs) have two or four high-bandwidth 50 Ω input channels with market-leading ADC, timing and display resolutions for accurately measuring and visualizing high-speed analog and data signals. They are ideal for capturing pulse and step transitions down to 22 ps, impulse down to 45 ps, and clocks and data eyes to 11 Gb/s (with optional 5 or 8 Gb/s clock recovery).

The PicoScope SXRTOs offer random sampling, which can readily analyze high-bandwidth applications that involve repetitive signals or clock-related streams.

The SXRTO is fast: random sampling, persistence displays and statistics all build quickly.

The PicoScope 9400 Series has a built-in internal trigger on every channel, with pre-trigger random sampling to well above the Nyquist (real-time) sampling rate. Bandwidth is up to 16 GHz behind a 50 Ω SMA(f) input, and three acquisition modes—real-time, random and roll—all capture at 12-bit resolution into a shared memory of up to 250 kS.

The touch-compatible PicoSample 4 software is derived from our existing, and highly regarded, PicoSample 3 sampling oscilloscope software, which embodies over ten years of development, customer feedback and optimization.

The display can be resized to fit any window and fully utilize available display resolution, 4K and even larger or across multiple monitors. Four independent zoom channels can show you different views of your data down to a resolution of 0.4 ps. Most of the controls and status panels can be shown or hidden according to your application, allowing you to make optimal use of the display area.

A 2.5 GHz direct trigger can be driven from any input channel, and a built-in divider can extend the off-channel trigger bandwidth to 5 GHz. On the 16 GHz models a further externalprescaled trigger input allows stable trigger from signals of up to 16 GHz bandwidth and,from the internal triggers, recovered clock trigger is available (if optional clock recovery isfitted) at up to 8 Gb/s. With this option, recovered clock and data are both available on SMAoutputs on the rear panel.

The price you pay for your PicoScope SXRTO is the price you pay for everything – we don’t charge you for software features or updates.
