Saelig announced the availability of Linux-based software for PicoScope PC-based oscilloscopes.  PicoScope 6 For Linux is an application that allows a PC to be connected to a PicoScope USB adapter to produce a high-powered oscilloscope, FFT spectrum analyzer and data acquisition device.

With built-in buffering in the PicoScope adapter, the PC's display is updated frequently even when set on long timebases. Previously only available as Windows-based software, PicoScope 6 For Linux includes a wide range of standard oscilloscope features such as waveform display, spectrum display, interactive zoom, sophisticated triggering, automatic measurements, and signal generator control.  Waveforms can be captured for off-line analysis or sharing with other users, or they can be exported in text, CSV and Mathworks MATLAB 4 formats.
