FlexRes® flexible resolution Most digital oscilloscopes gain their high sampling rates by interleaving multiple 8-bit ADCs. Despite careful design, the interleaving process introduces errors that always make the dynamic performance worse than the performance of the individual ADC cores. PicoScope FlexRes scopes have a significantly different hardware architecture in which multiple high-resolution ADCs can be applied to the input channels in different time-interleaved and parallel combinations. Thus you can reconfigure the hardware to optimize either for speed or resolution. For example, the PicoScope 5000 Series can boost either the sampling rate to 1 GS/s at 8 bits or the resolution to 16 bits at 62.5 MS/s. The PicoScope 4444 (12 to 14-bit) and 6824E (8 to 12-bit) oscilloscopes also have FlexRes. More information on FlexRes flexible resolution >>
