2510B Series Handheld Digital Storage Oscilloscopes-1

Data Sheet The 2.510B Series handheld digital storage oscilloscopes combine floating measurement and recorder capabilities with a built-in digital multimeter (DMM), all in one portable and lightweight package. The built-in 6000-count multimeter allows users to quickly transition from an oscilloscope to a DMM to measure DC/AC voltage and current, resistance, and capacitance, including diode and continuity tests. Features and benefits ■ 100 MHz (2511B/2515B) and 200 MHz (2512B/2516B) bandwidth ■ Maximum sample rate of 1 GSa/s ■ Maximum memory depth of 12 Mpts ■ Waveform update rate of 100,000 wfms/s (Normal mode), up to 400,000 wfms/s (Sequence mode) ■ 2 fully isolated and floating 1,000 V CAT II, 600 V CAT III rated inputs (isolated models 2515B and 2516B) ■ 300 V CAT II rated inputs (non-isolated models 2511B and 2512B) ■ Built-in 6000 count DMM with True RMS AC voltage and current measurements ■ Scope recorder and meter trend plots for data logging ■ 5.6" TFT-LCD (640 x 480) ■ Compact and lightweight - 3.86 lbs (1.75 kg) ■ Up to 5 1/2 hours (2511B / 2512B) or 4 hours (2515B / 2516B) respectively, of continuous battery operation These versatile scopes provide two analog channels with a maximum bandwidth of 200 MHz and a maximum sample rate of 1 GSa/s. Additionally, the 12 Mpts memory depth, sequence mode, and 400,000 waveforms per second update rate, allow users to capture transients and long-term signal behavior with excellent signal fidelity. Models 2515B and 2516B offer full isolation between both the oscilloscope channels, the multimeter channel, the power input and the USB host and device port. These handheld DSOs feature many useful recording functions such as scope recorder and trend plot, which allows data logging from the oscilloscope and multimeter inputs. The scope recorder function provides sample rates up to 25 kSa/s, 50 MB internal memory, and support to write directly to an external drive for up to 2 GB. The trend plot allows users to log oscilloscope or meter measurements at a slower rate up to 10 Hz with a maximum memory depth of 3.6 M samples. The 2510B Series handheld oscilloscopes are ideal for industrial applications, power systems, electronic design, and field test and service. ■ FFT including seven additional math functions: add, subtract, multiply, divide, differentiate, integrate, and square root ■ 38 automatic measurements ■ Serial bus decoding for IIC, SPI, UART, CAN and LIN protocols ■ USB host port for saving and recalling waveform setups, data, and screenshots on a USB flash drive ■ USB device port (Micro USB-TMC) for PC connectivity ■ Supports SCPI commands Technical data subject to change © B&K Precision Corp. 2023

Floating and Differential Measurements Many industrial applications such as power electronics require measurements of high voltages and currents that are not referenced to ground. Traditional line-powered oscilloscopes typically have signal common connected to earth ground, which is usually the chassis of the oscilloscope. This means that all measurements must be made relative to earth ground, which prevents users from making differential measurements where none of the test points are referenced to ground. As a workaround, some people choose to "float" an oscilloscope by removing the connection...
