Pico
Technology, the market leader in PC Oscilloscopes, has announced the
immediate availability of the PicoScope 2202 PC Oscilloscope. Connected to
your PC and powered by its USB 2.0 port, the dual-channel PicoScope 2202 is
a PC Oscilloscope with 8-bit resolution, 20 MS/s sampling rate and a 32kB
memory depth. In combination with the PicoScope and PicoLog software
included, the unit acts as an oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, multimeter
and data logger.
Using the
latest advances in measurement technology, Pico Technology has designed the
low-cost PicoScope 2202 with hobbyist and educational markets in mind. With
its high sampling rate, the oscilloscope is useful in a variety of
electronic applications including audio amplifiers, switched-mode power
supplies and microcontrollers, and for displaying waveforms obtained from
laboratory experiments. The USB 2.0 port makes the device easy to use with
all standard desktop and laptop PC’s and removes the need to configure
printer ports. There is no need for an external power supply, as the unit
takes its power from the USB port.
The
PicoScope 2202 is supported by the PicoScope and PicoLog software included
with each unit. PicoScope provides oscilloscope, spectrum analyser and
multimeter functions, with the ability to save and print waveforms. PicoLog
turns your system into a powerful data logger that can export data to a
spreadsheet or display it as a graph, both in real time or using recorded
data. These programs are easy for the novice to operate, but also contain a
full range of advanced features for expert users. Software updates are
available free of charge from the Pico Technology website.
Speaking of
the latest addition to Pico's PC Oscilloscope range, Alan Tong, Managing
Director said, "With the PicoScope 2202 we have successfully expanded our
range of USB-connected PC Oscilloscopes to appeal to a wider range of users.
We designed this product to make PC Oscilloscopes affordable for hobbyists
and educational users. Although the PicoScope 2202 is keenly priced,
customers can be confident that the unit has been designed using the latest
technology and to the highest standards for which Pico Technology has become
renowned."

PicoScope 2202 PC Oscilloscope is available immediately direct from Pico
Technology or from one of our authorised distributors at a cost of £199 +
VAT. You can obtain further information from the Pico Technology website at
