PicoScope 3000E Series oscilloscopes have waveform capture memories of up to 2 billion samples – many times larger than competing scopes. Deep memory enables the capture of long-duration waveforms at maximum sampling speed which is invaluable for capturing signals ranging from fast serial data through to complex power supply start-up sequences. The waveform shows a capture of 500 million samples with a zoom factor of 10,000 to reveal details of individual pulses.

As well as long, deep captures PicoScope lets you divide the capture memory up to 40,000 segments. You can set up a trigger condition to store a separate capture in each segment, with as little as 700 ns dead time between captures (an effective rate of 2 million waveforms per second). This is ideal for applications such as laser and radar where there are often long gaps between pulses.

Whether you have captured one long waveform or thousands of shorter ones, PicoScope has an array of powerful tools to manage and examine all of this data.
