Product overview

The PicoScope 3000E Series redefines PC-based oscilloscopes with up to 500 MHz bandwidth and 5 GS/s in a compact, portable, USB-powered package.

PicoScope 3000E oscilloscopes are small, portable and deliver high-performance specifications ideal for engineers working on advanced electronics and diverse embedded system technologies, either in the laboratory or on the move. Offering four analog channels with a choice of 100 MHz, 200 MHz, 350 MHz and 500 MHz bandwidth options, plus 16 digital logic analyzer channels on MSO models, there's a model to suit every application and budget.

Supported by the advanced PicoScope 7 Test and Measurement software, the PicoScope 3000E Series enables the rapid, cost-effective debugging and performance validation of complex analog and power electronic designs. It also offers an ideal package for many other applications, including embedded systems design, research, testing, education, service and repair.

High bandwidth, high sampling rate, deep memory

With compact size, low cost and input bandwidths up to 500 MHz, there is no compromise on performance. This bandwidth is matched by a real-time sampling rate of up to 5 GS/s, enabling detailed display of high frequency signal detail.

Many other oscilloscopes have high maximum sampling rates, but without deep memory they cannot sustain these rates on long timebases. The PicoScope 3000E Series offers up to 2 GS of capture memory, enabling the 500 MHz PicoScope 3418E to sample at 5 GS/s all the way down to 20 ms/div (200 ms total capture time).

The PicoScope 3000E Series includes a range of powerful tools to make the most of this huge waveform memory. Easy-to-use zoom functions let you zoom and reposition the display by simply dragging with the mouse or touchscreen. The SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface and hardware acceleration ensure that the display is smooth and responsive while still letting you see every glitch in huge waveforms.

Memory segmentation lets you capture thousands of waveforms in quick succession and view them in the waveform buffer navigator, filtering them using criteria such as mask limit testing or measurement limits to drill down to the waveforms you need to see. More advanced tools such as serial decoding and DeepMeasure™ work to analyze data packets or events across all waveform buffers in the deep memory, making the PicoScope 3000E Series some of the most capable oscilloscopes on the market.
