Cambridge, UK – 1st July 2025 – Pico Technology, a leader in PC-based test and measurement instruments, is proud to announce the extension of its PicoScope 9400A Series of high-bandwidth sampling oscilloscopes. The products are engineered to meet the demanding needs of high-speed electronics, communications, semiconductor research and high-energy physics applications.
The PicoScope 9400A Series is built on Pico’s SXRTO technology and, with this launch, adds three models to the previously announced 25 GHz version, giving users a choice of 6 GHz, 16 GHz, 25 GHz and a flagship 33 GHz bandwidthmodel. Designed for accuracy and performance, the 33 GHz model achieves rise and fall times of under 12 picoseconds, enabling precise analysis of ultra-fast signals. All models in the range feature four channels with 12-bit voltage resolution and an industry-leading jitter specification of less than 1.5 picoseconds RMS, critical for time-domain precision in advanced research environments.
An optional clock recovery function is available across the range to generate a trigger from a received data signal where a separate trigger signal is not readily available.
The products come with PicoSample 4 Windows software that delivers rich visualization and extensive waveform measurements and analysis, including clock and data pulse and eye diagram measurements of RZ, NRZ and PAM4 encoded data.
“The new sampling oscilloscope series reflects Pico Technology’s commitment to delivering powerful, accessible and cost-effective solutions for engineers and researchers working at the forefront of technology,” said Trevor Smith, Product Manager at Pico Technology. “We’ve combined exceptional performance with ease of use, making these instruments ideal for lab environments where flexibility, space and budget are often at a premium.”
These new oscilloscopes are particularly well-suited to professionals in semiconductor and materials research, high-speed communications and high-energy physics, where accurate waveform capture and signal integrity (SI) analysis are critical. The compact, PC-connected design also facilitates easy integration into automated test setups or shared lab environments.
The full sampling oscilloscope series is available immediately from Pico Technology and its distribution partners worldwide.
