PicoScope 25GHz upgrade

The PicoScope 9301 and PicoScope 9341 receive a bandwidth upgrade from 20 GHz to 25 GHz

So why is 25 GHz bandwidth a significant specification?
25GHz bandwidth allows 5 harmonic capture of data rates up to 10Gbit/s. With serial data streams up to 10 Gbits/s now commonplace, standards such as HDMI 2.0, PCIe Gen2 and Gen3, GBit Ethernet and USB 3.1 Gen1 and Gen2, to name but a few, all have transmission lines, cables, components, transmitters and receivers which all need pre-compliance testing and characterization.

25 GHz bandwidth, that’s going to be expensive isn’t it?
Engineers need to constantly test and validate their designs before compliance testing. For most companies, owning a real-time scope with 25 GHz bandwidth is unrealistic (upwards of $200,000) so long term renting is often the only way forward but that can be over $15,000, per MONTH! What if you could own the 25 GHz scope on your bench and have it every day, for the equivalent of 1 month’s rent of a 25 GHz real time scope?

Now you can with the new PicoScope 9300-25 models. The best bandwidth/price performance benchmark in the industry.
