Pico Technology PicoScope 2204A Oscilloscope 2 Channel 10 MHz Bandwidth USB

Very good bit off kit

I bought this to replace an old Stingray USB scope which I want to install on a new PC recently, but can't find the drivers anywhere. This is just about a high-enough spec for what I want, although I could really do with a 4-channel with a slightly higher bandwidth (too expensive to justify purchase). This is faultless to install, simple to use, sturdy, portable, and well worth the money. ... and it's British!!!

Used many scopes in the automotive field including Autel and Snapon. My current Autel VCI unit has a 4 channel scope and its absolutely terrible. I thought I'd try the pico one as its small and cheap, and wow. I can now tell why they are the best in the business for scopes as this, all be it the lowest tier one they do, is absolutely mega. Very impressed

Ok so really for car use it should be the 1K version, but I'm careful and it's not making me a living so the cheaper version will do for now. Pico have an enormous amount of training and info on their site, the scope is easy to set up and the "zoom" feature just makes it so versatile. You can't use it with their automotive s/w but the standard stuff is good enough. You can also save on the standard and open in the automotive s/w . They are the market leader in this and having first bought the competitor at 50% less I still bought this one. Waveform pic is diesel fuel rail pressure and an injector pulse.

Very happy with the purchase of this Picosope. Was not sure how I would get on with it as used to using one at work which is alot more money (an automotive Picosope) than this. However I have been very happy does what I need, have managed to scope CAN and LIN along with Amps. Great purchase and would buy again or save up for a proper Automotive one.

As a Microsoft hater the reason for purchasing this cheaper Picoscope unit was to try the Linux software available for it. The unit is fine for elementary wave chasing. The software is useable on my Suse Leap 15.x operating systems and is properly integrated into the software updating system. As the Pico web site says the Linux version misses some features but it is good enough for me. I am very grateful that Pico writes this software. I may well purchase one of their more advanced units in the future.

I purchased this scope (sans probes) to use for capturing and analysing audio signals. It's never going to be put to use above 20 kHz. It suits my intended application very well and offers a lot more features - particularly for frequency analysis and waveform generation - than more expensive budget scopes that take up more physical space. I also bought some RCA female to BNC male adapters from Amazon and I was away! One improvement would be for the hardware to use 12-bit rather than 8-bit A2D converters but I expect this would increase the price point somewhat. For £100 I can't complain given the features that are available on this British-made product.

Hab das PicoScope 2204A gekauft um es als Schulungslehrmittel zu nutzen. Die Software ist sehr umfangreich aber zugleich für meine Lehrzwecke gut geeignet. Grade das es einen Frequenzgenerator hat, macht das ganze rund. Schönes kleines gerät, Kaufempfehlung für Anfänger in der Elektronik.

Piú che amatoriale. Ottima la memorizzazione delle 32 videate, prima e dopo l'evento di trigger. Buonissimo trigger, finemente regolabile. La scala automatica risolve il problema della vecchia comoda manopola.

I started my electronics degree in 1980. Digital scopes were just coming out. Big, expensive, and limited but awesome. To think, the average person can buy something like this now. Something a hundred times better than the scopes back then and about a tenth of the cost is pretty remarkable. People don't appreciate how much better and cheaper things get with time unless they've lived through it.

El mejor que hay en cuanto a precio cálidad su interfaz gráfica es muy agradable y fácil de usar lo recomiendo pero siempre comprar junto con el un atenuador ya que solo soporta 20voltios y depende del uso lo puedes quemar

Good with easy to use free software. Compact and sturdy enough to take on the road. An update to USB-C would have been nice so I don’t have to carry around extra old cables.
