Analog Discovery 2

Digilent offers its 100 MSPS USB oscilloscope, logic analyzer, variable power supply, and multi-function instrument

Image of Digilent's Analog Discovery 2Digilent's Analog Discovery 2 is a USB oscilloscope and multi-function instrument that allows users to measure, visualize, generate, record, and control mixed-signal circuits of all kinds. Analog Discovery 2 is small enough to fit in a pocket, but powerful enough to replace a stack of lab equipment, providing engineering students, hobbyists, and electronics enthusiasts the freedom to work with analog and digital circuits in virtually any environment, in or out of the lab.

The analog and digital inputs and outputs can be connected to a circuit using simple wire probes; alternatively, the Analog Discovery BNC adapter (1286-1073-ND) and BNC probes (1286-1075-ND) can be used to connect and utilize the inputs and outputs. Driven by the free WaveForms 2015 (Mac, Linux, and Windows compatible) software, Analog Discovery 2 can be configured to work as any one of several traditional instruments.

Features
  • Two-channel USB digital oscilloscope (1 MΩ, ±25 V, differential, 14-bit, 100 MSPS, 30 MHz+ bandwidth - with the Analog Discovery BNC adapter board, 1286-1073-ND sold separately)
  • Two-channel arbitrary function generator (±5 V, 14-bit, 100 MSPS, 20 MHz+ bandwidth - with the Analog Discovery BNC adapter board, 1286-1073-ND sold separately )
  • Stereo audio amplifier to drive external headphones or speakers with replicated AWG signals
  • 16-channel digital logic analyzer (3.3 V CMOS, 100 MSPS)
  • 16-channel pattern generator (3.3 V CMOS, 100 MSPS)
  • 16-channel virtual digital I/O including buttons, switches, and LEDs which are perfect for logic training applications
  • Two input/output digital trigger signals for linking multiple instruments (3.3 V CMOS)
  • Single channel voltmeter (AC, DC, ±25 V)
  • Network analyzer: Bode, Nyquist, Nichols transfer diagrams of a circuit. Range: 1 Hz to 10 MHz
  • Spectrum analyzer - power spectrum and spectral measurements (noise floor, SFDR, SNR, THD, and others)
  • Digital Bus analyzers (SPI, I²C, UART, parallel)
  • Two programmable power supplies (0 to 5 V, 0 to -5 V). The maximum available output current and power depend on the Analog Discovery 2 powering choice:
    • 250 mW max for each supply or 500 mW total when powered through USB
    • 700 mA max or 2.1 W max for each supply when using an external wall power supply
