Safe measurements on power electronics
Analyzing modern electric drive systems requires mea-
suring motor voltages and currents while analyzing digi-
tal control signals. Safety is a key consideration for such
measurements.
The R&S®Scope Rider offers up to four isolated input chan-
nels with CAT IV 600 V rating that allow measurements
on high-voltage electronics without compromising safety.
Digital control signals can be analyzed with the 8-bit log-
ic interface that is isolated from the analog input chan-
nels. The protocol trigger and decode capability of the
R&S®Scope Rider is unprecedented in handheld oscillo-
scopes and provides direct display of decoded messages.
High-speed acquisition system with deep history:
never miss rare faults again
Capturing and analyzing rare anomalies in electric signals
is a typical use case when debugging electronic systems.
With an acquisition rate of up to 50 000 waveforms per
second – more than 1000 times faster than conventional
handheld oscilloscopes – the R&S®Scope Rider sees sig-
nals other scopes miss. Rare faults in signals can be reli-
ably captured and analyzed.
In history mode, the instrument automatically stores up to
5000 waveforms in a separate history buffer. At any point
in time, acquisition can be stopped and any waveform in
the history buffer can be analyzed using the full oscillo-
scope functionality. One-time anomalies that would have
been missed by a conventional handheld oscilloscope can
now be analyzed in detail.
Lab oscilloscope performance
When debugging embedded devices in the lab or analyz-
ing complex problems in the field, the R&S®Scope Rider of-
fers the performance and capabilities of a lab oscilloscope
as well as the form factor and ruggedness of a battery-
operated handheld device.
Small sensor signals can be analyzed with an excellent
vertical sensitivity of 2mV/div. Triggering on protocol
events and decoding protocol data enables convenient de-
bugging of digital control signals. A digital trigger system
provides the best trigger sensitivity available in a hand-
held oscilloscope, and 14 trigger types give the flexibility
required to capture exactly the right signal. With 33 auto-
matic measurement functions, the R&S®Scope Rider de-
livers the capabilities of a lab oscilloscope when analyzing
signal parameters.
The high-speed acquisition system of the R&S®Scope Rider captures
up to 50 000 waveforms/s and uncovers rare and unexpected signal
anomalies.
