What is the Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series?
Bolster your benchtop with the biggest, baddest, and boldest Analog Discovery yet.
The Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series devices, the ADP5250, ADP5470, and ADP5490, are Digilent’s most ambitious mixed signal oscilloscopes to date, bringing higher sample rates, wider bandwidth, and more power to your benchtop.
Classifying the three ADP 5000 devices as ‘just’ mixed signal oscilloscopes would be doing them a disservice. Each product sports an integrated CAT II Digital Multimeter, three programmable power supplies, a dedicated trigger line, and arbitrary waveform generator to complement the mixed signal oscilloscope. With 34 digital inputs operating at 1 GS/s working in tandem with the analog system, the rugged 5000 Series devices provide a range of bandwidths and sample rates for analog inputs to fit your needs – from a base of 100 MHz at 1 GS/s, to 350 MHz at 1.5 GS/s, all the way up to 500 MHz at 2 GS/s.
Driven by Digilent’s free WaveForms software and with everything included with a one-time purchase of the hardware, the Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series is more than just a tool – it’s analysis uncompromised.
Higher Sample Rate and Bandwidth
Designed to combine a complete set of instruments into a singular device, ADP 5000 Series devices are flexible and programmable mixed-signal oscilloscopes. Each has two or four analog input channels with bandwidth and sample rates ranging from 100 MHz at 1 GS/s up to 500 MHz at 2 GS/s. All devices in the series feature 34 digital channels with 1 GS/s inputs, a tri-output programmable power supply capable of up to 25 V, an external trigger, Waveform Generator, and a built-in DMM.
The Ultimate All-In-One Test System
The Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series feature a variety of trigger options. Instruments within WaveForms can be cross-triggered by activated an oscilloscope capture based on the start of the Waveform Generator. In addition, external signals can trigger events using the dedicated external trigger input/output. Digilent’s free WaveForms software provides these configurable features in the instruments themselves, or for more control or automation in one of the available scripting interfaces.
Note: The ADP 5000 Series devices are Windows® only.

What is WaveForms? |
|||||||
WaveForms is the free software application for Digilent's Discovery devices and enables use of the available analog and digital instruments. The software has been refined by customer feedback for over 10 years and features a computer and laptop friendly user interface that has the feel of traditional benchtop software. The device communicates with WaveForms via a USB connection to your computer, allowing users to capture, record, analyze, and generate mixed signal and mixed domain waveforms. WaveForms can be downloaded and installed in under 60 seconds and can be tested without hardware using its demo mode feature. In addition to the use of instruments in the application, the WaveForms application has a script editor tool, which allows custom scripting of the instrument in JavaScript. WaveForms is designed to be run on a laptop or desktop computer. ADP 5000 Series devices are Windows® only. For even more customization potential, the WaveForms Software Development Kit (SDK) can be used to create custom applications and scripts in Python®, C, and additional languages. While not officially supported, the ADP 5000 devices are also compatible with NI's VirtualBench C API and VirtualBench LabVIEW™ VIs. The following instruments are available in the WaveForms application for the ADP 5000 Series devices:
