PQ010
The PicoScope 2207B MSO is an advanced, compact mixed-signal oscilloscope (MSO) with a USB interface, designed for engineers, developers, and laboratory use.
This device combines the functions of an analog oscilloscope, logic analyzer, waveform generator, and serial bus decoder — allowing simultaneous analysis of both analog and digital signals in one portable instrument.

Functions and Capabilities
-
Mixed triggering (analog + digital) — allows triggering on analog signals or combinations of digital conditions.
-
Logic analyzer / bus decoder — digital inputs can be analyzed as lines or buses, with protocol decoding (e.g., SPI, I²C, CAN, LIN, UART, etc.) on both analog and digital channels simultaneously.
-
Parallel bus decoding — analyze up to 18 channels (analog + digital) for comprehensive mixed-signal system testing.
-
Spectrum analysis (FFT) — transforms signals into the frequency domain without the need for external instruments.
-
Mask Limit Testing — define tolerance masks and automatically detect waveform violations.
-
Segmented memory — record multiple short events in sequence without losing data.
-
Waveform buffer — store and review multiple captured waveforms for retrospective analysis.
-
Software Development Kit (SDK) — includes tools, example codes, and integration with MATLAB, LabVIEW, Python, and other platforms.
Typical Applications
-
Design and debugging of mixed analog–digital systems
