4-Channel Precision PC Oscilloscope - USB 2.0 | 
| | |  | PicoScope 3424 Digital PC Based Oscilloscope |
| The PicoScope 3424 is the ideal 4-channel pc oscilloscope for general purpose and specialist, high precision use. This high resolution oscilloscope connects to the USB port on your laptop or desktop PC; along with providing the power for the PicoScope, the USB connection provides fast data transfer and makes the oscilloscope quick and easy to set up and use. | 

| High resolution and accuracy With 12 bit resolution and 1% accuracy, the PicoScope 3424 is able to detect changes as small as 0.024% (244 ppm) — making it the ideal 4-channel oscilloscope for testing audio circuits, and for measuring noise and vibrations.
High dynamic range When the PicoScope 3424 is used as a spectrum analyzer its high, 72 dB, dynamic range makes it the ideal tool for tracking down noise in sensitive analogue circuits.
Capture large and complex signals The 512,000 sample buffer of the PicoScope 3424 enables large amounts of data to be captured at high sampling rates. This allows you to capture fast-changing signals over relatively long periods of time, while the fast USB 2.0 interface ensures a quick screen update rate. After capturing these signals, any areas of interest can be magnified to allow you to examine every last detail of the signal.

| PicoScope Oscilloscope and Data Acquisition Software |
| 
| The PicoScope 3424 is supplied with PicoScope software that provides oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer and multimeter functions. PicoScope software makes full use of your PC's processing capabilities allowing you to view real-time signals, zoom in on your signal, and save and print captured waveforms. The familiar Windows graphical interface makes PicoScope intuitive to use and includes an autosetup function that will automatically set up the timebase, channels and trigger configuration to display any signals that PicoScope finds on the oscilloscope's inputs. Also supplied is PicoLog data acquisition software that transforms your PC into a high-speed data logger. |
