PicoLog 1000 Series

The PicoLog 1000 Series offers a high-performance, USB-powered data acquisition system featuring up to 16 analog input channels, 12-bit resolution, and expandable configurations supporting up to 320 channels. Ideal for applications requiring precise voltage measurements, sensor integration, and real-time data logging..

  • Specification

The PicoLog 1000 Series is designed to meet the needs of a wide range of general-purpose voltage, sensor, and transducer logging applications. It features independent software-configurable scaling and control outputs, an external terminal board for custom front-end circuitry, and a choice of 10 or 12-bit input resolution.

Expandable Multichannel System:
The budget model PicoLog 1012 has 12 input channels and 10-bit resolution. The powerful PicoLog 1216 has 16 channels and 12-bit resolution. Need more channels? No problem. Using the new PicoLog software, you can connect up to 20 Pico data loggers to one PC, creating a potential 320-channel PicoLog 1000 Series data logging system.

External Terminal Board:
The external terminal board, which plugs into the 25-way connector on the logger, has screw terminals to allow sensor wires to be attached to the data logger without soldering. The terminal board also has locations where you can fit resistors to offset and extend the input ranges of the logger.

Fast and Accurate:
With 10 or 12-bit resolution and multiple sampling modes, a PicoLog 1000 Series logger will meet your data logging needs. The PicoLog 1000 Series has two sampling modes:

  • Using the PicoLog software, readings can be logged continuously at up to 1 kS/s, limited only by your computer’s available storage.

  • Using the PicoScope software, the full sampling rate of 1 MS/s (split between enabled channels) is available using the logger’s internal 8000 sample memory buffer.

PicoLog Software:
PicoLog is a complete data acquisition software package for the PicoLog 1000 Series data logger, and is fully compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. With its clear and user-friendly layout, ideal for use with a mouse or a touchscreen, PicoLog allows you to set up the logger and start recording with just a few clicks of the mouse, whatever your level of data logging experience.

  • High Channel Count: Models with up to 16 input channels per device; connect up to 20 devices for a total of 320 channels.

  • High Resolution: 12-bit analog-to-digital conversion with 0.5% accuracy.

  • Sampling Rates: Up to 1 MS/s in PicoScope mode; 1 kS/s per channel in PicoLog mode.

  • Digital Outputs: Up to 4 software-configurable digital outputs and 1 PWM output.

  • Expandable System: Use multiple devices simultaneously for large-scale data acquisition.

  • Terminal Board Included: Facilitates easy sensor connections without soldering.

  • Software Support: Compatible with PicoLog 6, PicoScope, and PicoSDK for custom applications.

  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Raspberry Pi.
