PicoScope 3418E MSO Wins Best in Show at Embedded World NA 2025

Pico Technology’s PicoScope 3418E MSO has been awarded Best in Show, Test & Measurement at Embedded World North America 2025, recognizing its innovation in portable, high-performance mixed-signal oscilloscope design.

About the PicoScope 3418E MSO

The PicoScope 3418E MSO brings bench-grade performance in a compact, portable form factor, designed for engineers working on next-generation embedded systems, power electronics, and mixed-signal applications.

Key Capabilities

• Mega-Depth Capture Engine: record enormous signal histories for detailed post-capture analysis
• Mixed-signal visibility: hybrid analog-digital capture for simultaneous oscilloscope and logic analyzer functionality
• Portable bench-grade performance: compact USB-powered design with no compromise on specifications
• High-performance architecture: designed for complex debugging and validation workflows

Available Through GSAS in India

As Pico Technology’s authorized partner in India, GSAS provides the complete PicoScope range, from the 2000 series for education and basic use, through the 3000/4000/5000 series for professional engineering, to the 6000E series for high-bandwidth R&D applications.

All PicoScope products come with PicoScope 7 software (free, unlimited updates), local technical support from GSAS, and evaluation unit availability.

What “Best in Show: Test & Measurement” recognizes

The Embedded World NA Best in Show awards are voted by attending engineers and editors at the show floor, not by a vendor panel, the recognition reflects what working product teams found most useful when they put their hands on the demo gear. For the PicoScope 3418E MSO, that came down to the combination of bench-grade vertical resolution, the deep-memory capture engine, and the mixed-signal channels packed into a compact USB-powered chassis that fits a typical Indian engineering lab without an extra power point or rack space.

Where the 3418E sits in the broader PicoScope range

The 3000E family is the portable / mid-bandwidth line. The full Pico Technology range available in India through GSAS spans:

• 2000 series: entry-level USB scopes for education and basic bench debug; the most common starter purchase at engineering colleges
• 3000E series (the 3418E winner here), portable bench scopes with deep memory and mixed-signal capability for general-purpose engineering use
• 4000 / 4000A series: high-resolution (12 / 14 / 16-bit) scopes for power-electronics and analog signal-integrity work
• 5000 series: flexible-resolution MSO with switchable 8-/12-/14-/15-/16-bit modes
• 6000E / 9000A series: high-bandwidth R&D scopes for SerDes, PAM4, and high-speed digital validation. The PicoScope 6000E product page and the PicoScope range overview cover the full spec breakdown

Indian teams typically pick by problem class: 4000A for solar inverter / EV motor-controller analog work, 3000E (or now the 3418E specifically) for everyday firmware and mixed-signal debug, 5000 for digital protocol bring-up, and 6000E / 9000A for SerDes and high-speed digital sign-off. All ship with the PicoScope 7 software free for the life of the instrument and now pair cleanly with the new pyPicoSDK Python automation library for CI/CD and production-test workflows.
