PicoScope 4000 Diagnostic Scopes

PicoScope 4000 oscilloscopes are designed to save you time and money by making it easier and quicker to diagnose faults on today’s modern vehicles.

 

The PicoScope 4423 Automotive Oscilloscope is the most advanced PicoScope lab scope available and is included with our 4-channel automotive kit.

Faster sampling

The PicoScope 4423 can capture signals four times faster than any other PicoScope automotive scope – this makes it compatible with the new FlexRay standard and ensures your PicoScope oscilloscope will continue to be useful for a long time to come.

More memory

As well as capturing faster signals, the PicoScope 4423 also outperforms other scopes thanks to the 32 MB of ‘always on’ memory. With 64 times the memory of the previous generation of scopes, the PicoScope 4423 ensures that you can effortlessly capture every detail of the signal. Never again will you miss those hard-to-find intermittent faults.

Higher input range

The high ±100 V input range of the PicoScope 4423 eliminates the need for external attenuators for most vehicle tests.

Sorry – we couldn’t make it any easier to use

Thanks to the familiar graphical user interface, help files and reference library, using your PicoScope 4423 is as easy as ever. If you’re an existing PicoScope user you can just connect your scope and benefit immediately from the power and performance of your new PicoScope 4423. If you’ve never used a PicoScope oscilloscope before you can get started without needing to spend hours reading manuals.

The labscope for the new generation of vehicles

The fast sampling speeds, large memory and bandwidth of the PicoScope 4423 means that not only is it suitable for use on all current vehicles, but it will continue to be of use in diagnosing faults with the complex electrical and electronic systems that will be found on new and future generations of vehicles.
