USB Digital Storage Oscilloscope offers signal isolation.
Press Release Summary:
Powered by USB port, USBscope50 standard BNC oscilloscope probes and has modular design that lets user configure single channel or up to 4 channels when using multiple adapters. Synchronization system ensures tight signal channel-to-channel matching and concurrent triggering. In addition to 300 V Cat II galvanic input isolation between BNC ground and USB ground, features include programmable trigger threshold and edge modes, programmable input offset, and 50 MSps 8-bit sampling.

Saelig's Miniature 10MHz Scope Adapter Offers Signal Isolation
Pittsford, NY, USA: Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced USBscope50 - possibly the world's smallest USB DSO (Digital Storage Oscilloscope). USBscope50 combines a very small form factor - similar to a memory stick - with the high performance normally associated with much larger bench-type products. Powered from a USB port, USBscope50's modular design allows the user to configure a single channel or up to 4 channels when using multiple adapters. A proprietary synchronization system insures tight signal channel-to-channel matching and concurrent triggering. USBscope50 is small enough to be carried in a shirt pocket or laptop bag and uses standard BNC oscilloscope probes.
USBscope50 offers lots of features common on bench scopes, such as AC/DC coupling, programmable trigger threshold and edge modes, pre- and post-trigger, programmable input offset, 50MSps 8-bit sampling (1Gsps equivalent time sampling for repetitive input waveforms), 3V/30V/300V input ranges with a x10 scope probe - but adds features sometimes unavailable in even expensive scopes, such as 300V Cat II galvanic input isolation between BNC ground and USB ground. This means that there is no DC path through USBscope50 from the scope ground clip to the PC's ground. Measured signals can be displayed with the supplied scope software, as well as stored or printed on the attached PC.
USBscope50 offers unbeatable value and convenience and is available now for under $279.00 each from Saelig Company Inc. Pittsford NY.
