CS548 Isolated Oscilloscope
The CS548 isolated channel oscilloscope is made for measurements in power electronics systems.
It can be used to make measurements of all high side nodes, do EMC measurements, check out start up behaviour, calculate power loss and switching energy, and examine message contents.
It is part of a tool set that will do all the things needed to verify your power electronics design, and then test it - as a prototype or in production. It includes:
- A software application, and DLL driver to control between 1 and 4 oscilloscopes as a single 4-16 channel oscilloscope, capable of streaming to hard disk, doing Time and Spectrum, Symbolic Maths, Matlab integration, FRA, Protocol Decoding and Signal Statistics.
- Four internal fiber isolated input channels for measurement of signals with a common mode voltage change of 100V/ns at up to 2kV common mode.
- Four remote channel sockets for use with the CS1200 remote voltage digitizer or the CS1201 remote current digitizer. The CS1200/CS1201 is linked by fibre at up to 30m distance for use in high voltage enclosures (up to 30kV common mode).
- Really good resolution (14 bit) with noise free measurement of 1 part in 1300.
- An isolated signal generator, 0-65MHz, (also 100V/ns common mode) to do Frequency Response Analysis (FRA). Use it for stability analysis and gain/phase on working power electronics modules, Impedance measurement of power planes, inputs and outputs, and measurement of inductors and capacitors over frequency.
- Two pod high speed interfaces for I/O expansion.
- Two CS1301 Isolated digital input pods for measuring logic signals with high common mode voltages (1130V DC) - 4 digital inputs each for a total of 8 digital inputs.
- Other Pods that can be bought separately:
- CS1032 Isolated digital I/O pods for generating up to 4 outputs for double pulse, half or full bridge PWM control or arbitrary sequences. It includes one input pod, and can be used to make an isolated SPI or UART pod. Support for the CS1032 is in the application.
- CS1133 Vsat probe pod for measuring mV saturation levels while switching up to 2kV for power loss measurement. It is isolated for high or low side measurements.
- CS1070 50 MHz power amplifier with 36Vpp 1A output for wide bandwidth higher power FRA.
