Two-channel handheld digital oscilloscope meters deliver a maximum 200Msamples/s sample rate, with an impressive 2.5Gsamples/s repetitive sampling feature.

The WENS 800 series of handheld digital oscilloscope meters, manufactured in South Korea by WENS Precision, is now available in the UK exclusively from Aspen Electronics With bandwidths of 20, 40 or 60MHz, the two-channel meters deliver a maximum 200Msamples/s sample rate, with an impressive 2.5Gsamples/s repetitive sampling feature and a long 125Kbyte record length

A number of high performance features, exceptional ease of use, rugged construction and added flexibility through a range of interface options, makes this series suitable for a broad range of specialist and general purpose engineering applications.

Furthermore, its portability makes it especially practical for field use.

It is expected to prove useful for troubleshooting in circuit design and debug, manufacturing test, installation and quality inspection tasks in the automotive, power systems, machinery, control, aerospace and industrial sectors.

The scopes feature 8bit vertical resolution and offer various acquisition modes including: sample, average, peak detect and envelope.

Advanced trigger modes cover edge, pulsewidth, TV, pattern and delay.

There are 23 automatic measurement functions as well as arithmetic and FFT analysis facilities, and an auto-set feature for easy waveform capture.

A built in high precision, 6000-count autoranging digital multimeter provides AC and DC RMS voltage, ohms, capacitance, diode and continuity measurements, with current, relative humidity, temperature and pressure available through external adapters.

A USB port is provided for easy communication to a PC, firmware updates and self-calibration, and a USB Flash memory port is optionally available for storing and transferring large amounts of data.

Powered by a 9V DC power adapter or 7.2V rechargeable NiMH battery pack, additional features of the DOM include a 320 x 240 pixel backlit LCD, zoom function, and persistence mode for differentiating the display of multiple waveforms.

A range of accessories including probes, test leads, adapters and interfaces are readily available from Aspen.

Prices range from GBP 639 for the 20MHz version to GBP 837 for the 60MHz top of the range model.
