Pico Technology has released a new PicoSDK driver package installer for its PicoScope oscilloscope and PicoLog data loggers for Microsoft Windows. This release adds drivers for the latest PicoScope 2000A and 2000B models and the PicoScope 4444, as well as various fixes for other drivers.
The PicoSDK (consisting of the drivers, Programmer’s Guides and software examples) allows the development of custom applications and integration into other systems. The drivers can be used with any programming language that supports standard C calls and provide you with direct control of the PicoScope and PicoLog devices.
For PicoScope oscilloscopes, the advantages include:
Additional advanced trigger functions
The ability to programmatically define and output arbitrary waveforms (device-dependent)
The ability to specify a large number of segments for rapid block captures (device-dependent)
Faster streaming data acquisition rates (depending on PC resources)
A significant change in this release is that the PicoSDK installer now only contains the drivers, static library files, C/C++ header files and changelog information. Programmer’s Guides and software examples are now available individually from the links given below. This will make it easier to install and update just the files you need.
The PicoSDK installer is available free of charge with separate 32-bit and 64-bit driver package installers from www.picotech.com/downloads. Regular updates will be provided to coincide with the stable releases of the PicoScope software.
Our software examples are available in a number of programming languages and for third-party environments (C/C++, C#, Microsoft Excel Visual Basic for Applications, National Instruments LabVIEW, MathWorks MATLAB, Python and Visual Basic .NET) and can be downloaded free of charge from our GitHub repositories at github.com/picotech.
The Programmer’s Guides can be viewed and downloaded from www.picotech.com/library/documentation.

About Pico Technology
Pico Technology has spent over 25 years leading the industry in the design, development and manufacture of high-performance PC Oscilloscopes and Data Loggers, while engineers at our Eastern Europe office have been working in the RF and microwave market since 1974.
Together we have built up an impressive and innovative portfolio of small-footprint, high-performance products and software, often at uniquely low prices. Examples are the PicoScope PC Sampling Oscilloscope range with bandwidths up to 25 GHz; real-time oscilloscopes with fixed and flexible hardware resolutions up to 16 bits, deep buffer memories and mixed-signal capability; the TC-08 and PT-104 Temperature Data Loggers; and the multi-award-winning Automotive Oscilloscope Kit.
