Oscilloscopes Support Internal-Combustion and Latest Vehicle Diagnostics
Designed especially for vehicle diagnostics and troubleshooting, the Micsig AHO1 Series of high-resolution automotive oscilloscopes from Saelig features a 12-bit ADC, four analog channels with 200-MHz bandwidth, a sampling rate of GSPS, and a memory depth of 110 Mpoints. The 1.2-in.-thick portable device integrates a built-in high-capacity Li-ion battery, with USB Type-C charging, suiting it for mobile and outdoor situations.
The AHO1 series has a novel general/automotive dual-software architecture with dedicated test modes for engines, sensors, and electric-vehicle (EV) systems. The scopes support both internal-combustion and new energy vehicle diagnostics, with dedicated automotive and general-purpose oscilloscope software that suits both professional vehicle diagnostics and general electronic measurements.
Features include a handy 4½-digit multimeter function for a variety of simple measurements, including voltage, current, resistance, continuity testing, diode testing, and capacitance measurement, removing the need for an additional multimeter for simultaneous quick testing. The rubber-cased AHO1 series with its 16,000-mAh Li-ion battery also supports charging via power banks.
For automated or remote testing, the oscilloscopes support SCPI commands, mobile apps, or smartphone and PC-based remote-control situations, with an HDMI output for external displays or projectors.
The 12-bit high-resolution ADC offers up to 4096 quantization levels. Also, segmented storage divides the available storage space into multiple small segments, analyzing intermittent, rare signals more accurately and efficiently.
Two AHO1 packages are available: the Standard Kit provides a variety of automotive repair-specific accessories, while the Master Kit adds a professional carrying case and even more accessories.
