PC based USB 8~16Bit 100MSPS 40MHz Oscilloscope and Spectrum Analyzer

Introduction

VT DSO-2810R is one of the second-generation USB DSO (USB oscilloscopes) designed and developed by Virtins Technology. This generation of USB DSOs features Virtins Technology’s unique hardware-based DSP algorithm which enhances the performance and functionality dramatically without adding extra hardware cost. When used in conjunction with Multi-Instrument® software, the USB DSO converts any desktop, laptop, or tablet PC into a powerful oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, multimeter, data logger, signal generator and so forth, all of which work simultaneously.

Equivalent Sampling Frequency = [Real Time Sampling Frequency] x [Number of Frames Persisted]. Maximum 20 GHz, for repetitive signals whose maximum frequency is less than ¼ of the real time sampling frequency. Not valid for the case of post-trigger.
Buffer Size Normal Frame Mode Analog Single Channel
40000 samples (8 bits)
20000 samples (16 bits)
Dual Channels
20000 samples / channel (8 bits, Non-ALT mode)
10000 samples / channel (16 bits, Non-ALT mode)
40000 samples / channel (8 bits, ALT mode)
20000 samples / channel (16 bits, ALT mode)
Record Mode
(Streaming Mode)		 Limited only by hard disk space available and maximum file size allowed by the operating system.
Maximum sampling frequency for continuous streaming is computer speed and software setting dependent and typically 10 MHz (single channel, 8 bit) in Multi-Instrument.
Roll Mode
(Streaming Mode for Low Frequency Signals)		 Limited only by the computer memory available.
Roll Mode is allowed when fs ≤ 1MHz and [Record Length] ≥ 4 x [Roll Width]. Maximum sampling frequency for continuous streaming is computer speed and software setting dependent.
Sweep Time 10 ns ~ 500 s (Non-Streaming Mode)
Sampling Frequency Accuracy ± 50 ppm
Oscilloscope Vertical (Analog) Axes
Number of Channels 2 (i.e. Ch. A and Ch. B)
ADC Bit Resolution 8 Bits
Enhanced ADC Bit Resolution
(available only when Sampling Frequency is less than 40 MHz) 		16 Bits
If this option is selected, the effective bit resolution increases from 8 bits to up to 16 bits as the sampling frequency goes down.
