Picoscope 3000 Series User Guide 2 Introduction
Welcome 1 1 Welcome The PicoScope 3000 Series of PC Oscilloscopes from Pico Technology is a range of high-specification, real-time measuring instruments that connect to the USB port of your computer. The oscilloscopes obtain their power supply through the USB cable, so they do not need an additional power supply and are therefore highly portable. The 3000 Series consists of two ranges: General-purpose range (PicoScope 3204, 3205 and 3206 variants) High-precision range (PicoScope 3224 and 3424 variants) With the PicoScope software you can use PicoScope 3000 Series PC Oscilloscopes as oscilloscopes and spectrum analysers; and with the PicoLog software you can use them as data loggers. Alternatively, using the API functions, 16 you can develop your own programs to collect and analyse data from the oscilloscope. A typical PicoScope 3000 Series PC Oscilloscope is supplied with the following items: USB cable, for use with USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports Software and Reference CD Installation Guide Copyright 2006-7 Pico Technology Limited.

Read all safety documentation associated with the product before using it. Symbol 2: Equipotential This symbol indicates that the outer shells of the indicated BNC connectors are all at the same potential (shorted together). You must therefore take necessary precautions to avoid applying a potential across the return connections of the indicated BNC terminals as this may cause a large current to flow, resulting in damage to the product and/or connected equipment. -

Most digital oscilloscopes sold today still use an analog trigger architecture The new PicoScope 3000 Series offers the highest performance available based on comparators. This can cause time and amplitude errors that from any USB-powered oscilloscope on cannot always be calibrated out. The use of comparators often limits the the market today. trigger sensitivity at high bandwidths and can also create a long trigger The PicoScope 3000 Series has the power “re-arm” delay. and performance for many applications, Since 1991 we have been pioneering the use of fully digital triggering such as design, research, test, education, using the actual digitized data. This reduces trigger errors and allows our service and repair. oscilloscopes to trigger on the smallest signals, even at the full bandwidth. Pico USB-powered oscilloscopes are also Trigger levels and hysteresis can be set with high precision and resolution. -

Recreating Lab Measurements As RTL Stimulus
Torgeir Leithe Recreating lab measurements as RTL stimulus Master’s thesis in Electronic Systems Design Supervisor: Kjetil Svarstad June 2019 Master’s thesis Master’s NTNU Engineering Department of Electronic Systems Department of Electronic Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Technology of Information Faculty Norwegian University of Science and Technology of Science University Norwegian Torgeir Leithe Recreating lab measurements as RTL stimulus Master’s thesis in Electronic Systems Design Supervisor: Kjetil Svarstad June 2019 Norwegian University of Science and Technology Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering Department of Electronic Systems Abstract Most of modern IC design verification is conducted as RTL simulations. However, the final verification steps must be done on physical silicon. If unexpected behavior is found at this stage, understanding the problem can be a challenge. The understanding of the problem is limited by all the internal signals and states in the DUT being hidden. Only the external signals can be probed. By recording all the stimulus applied to the IC, the conditions triggering the issue can be recreated in the RTL simulations. This enables a greater understanding of the inner workings of the IC at the time the issue occurs. This thesis investigates ways of assisting the designer in this process. By taking advantage of most stimulus applied to the DUT being part of a communication protocol, focus can be moved from the signals them self, to the information transmitted by the signals. Decoding the signals to a protocol level allows for reuse of existing testbenches. The information being presented at a protocol level also makes analysis of the problem simpler for the designer. -

Mobile Data-Logger for Ultra-Low Current and Power Measurements
Institut für Technische Informatik und Kommunikationsnetze Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering Spring Semester 2016 RocketLogger: Mobile Data-Logger for Ultra-Low Current and Power Measurements Semester Thesis, SA-2016-40 Matthias Leubin, Stefan Lippuner [email protected], [email protected] June 2016 Supervisors: Lukas Sigrist, [email protected] Andres Gomez, [email protected] Roman Lim, [email protected] Professor: Prof. Dr. L. Thiele, [email protected] Abstract With the appearance of wearable devices and the Internet of Things (IoT), energy harvesting nodes are becoming more and more important. These small standalone sensors and actuators, which harvest very lim- ited amounts of energy from their environment, are driving researchers into the development of ultra-low power devices. To evaluate new de- signs, very accurate and fast measurement systems are required, which are able to capture the rapidly changing currents. On the other hand, the necessity of real-world experiments creates a demand for compact and portable equipment. In this thesis we present the RocketLogger, a measurement device, which combines both properties, mobility and accuracy. It is able to measure powers in the range of 100 pW up to 2.5 W within the same measure- ment, while not being bigger than a human hand. The custom analog front-end allows the logging of power on several channels with sampling rates of up to 64 kSPS. In addition, it guarantees high precision over a dynamic range of 165 dB and has a seamless auto-ranging capability. The software handles the acquisition and logging of up to 13 Mbit/s of sensor data. -

Although the scope has the same small footprint as Pico’s existing 2- and 4-channel models, the BNC connectors with 20 mm spacing still accept all common probes and accessories. Despite its compact size, there is no compromise on performance. With a high vertical resolution of 12 bits, 20 MHz bandwidth, 256 MS buffer memory, and a fast sampling rate of 80 MS/s, the PicoScope 4824 has the power and functionality to deliver accurate results. It also features deep memory to analyze multiple serial buses such as UART, I2C, SPI, CAN and LIN plus control and driver signals. Arbitrary waveform and function generators In addition, the PicoScope 4824 has a built-in low-distortion, 80 MS/s, 14 bit arbitrary waveform generator (AWG), which can be used to emulate missing sensor signals during product development, or to stress-test a design over the full intended operating range.
