Micsig's 5th-generation digital storage oscilloscope, the MHO3 Series, with up to 500MHz bandwidth, 3GSa/s sampling rate, 4 analog channels, and 360Mpts memory depth, utilizes a 12-bit high-resolution ADC with 4096 quantization levels, 16 times that of traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes. A 500MHz 12-bit scope for under $4k! https://lnkd.in/enC5wgde

The Pico Technology PS3417E and PS3418E are the world's first USB-powered 5GSa/s PC-based oscilloscopes, an expansion of the PicoScope 3000 series. The two 4 analog channel models, with 350 MHz and 500 MHz bandwidth respectively, have 10-bit resolution and up to 14-bit precision with Enhanced Resolution. The 2GSa ultra-deep capture memory enables capturing long-duration signals at maximum sampling rate. This is complemented with the PicoScope DeepMeasure™ tool that delivers automatic measurements of waveform parameters on up to a million waveform cycles with each triggered acquisition. #PicoScope #Oscilloscope #PicoTechnology https://bit.ly/3S1S1n8

"Gunn Effect" was discovered by physicist. J. B. Gunn in 1962. Later Gunn Diode was invented and various Gunn Oscillators were built to replace the tubes for low power applications up to 200 GHz. Today, Gunn Oscillators are found less in system applications due to the difficulties of mass production, but they are still playing some important roles when the performance and cost are critical.

The Siglent SDS7000A series of high-bandwidth, high-resolution oscilloscopes offer advanced features such as 20GSa/s sampling, 12-bit vertical resolution, and 500 Mpts per channel memory. Using 12bit ADCs to limit quantization errors aids greatly in observing small signal details. The noise floor on the 7000A series is as low as 220μVrms at 4 GHz bandwidth and the waveform capture rate reaches 1 million wfm/s, ideal for capturing abnormal events. The SDS7000A scopes have a 15.6-inch high-definition touch screen for analyzing all signal channels simultaneously and improving operational efficiency. 16 digital channels are also available for high performance mixed signal analysis. https://bit.ly/saelig7000A

Measurement of Amplifier Additive Phase Modulation Noise (APM). Both APM and AAM performance can be dependent upon the analyzer’s internal signal source carrier frequency, power level, and, importantly, the phase length from signal source output to RF input, so great care must be taken to optimize these parameters.

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) crystals in the new QuantaMax detector allow direct conversion of X-rays into an electrical signal rather than light. This CdTe semiconductor crystal differs from standard scintillation detector, as it enables individual measurement of each X-ray photon in a single projection. QuantaMax detectors create CT images at high spatial resolution, without electronic noise, and with an improved contrast‐to‐noise ratio, intrinsic spectral information, and at a lower radiation dose. Combining the above capabilities with Dual Source temporal resolution enables visualization of fine details for increased diagnostic confidence. https://lnkd.in/d4QcfGdd #SiemensHealthineers #QuantaMaxDetector #PhotonCounting #QuantumTechnology #NaeotomAlpha

The PicoScope 5444D is a 4-channel 200MHz flexible resolution oscilloscope with a memory size of 512MSa (8-bit)/ 256MSa (12-bit+). Pico’s breakthrough ADC technology offer high speed and high resolution, switchable from 8 to 16 bits in one oscilloscope to suit a variety of needs and applications. To handle a wide range of test signals, the PicoScope 5444D’s hardware employs multiple high-resolution input ADCs in various time-interleaved and parallel combinations to optimize either the sampling rate to 1GS/s at 8 bits, the resolution to 16 bits at 62.5MS/s, or other intermediate combinations. Select whichever is the most appropriate hardware resolution for the requirements of each measurement! https://lnkd.in/gmVDJ-_K
