picosdk-ps5000-matlab-examples is a set of MATLAB examples demonstrating how to call shared library functions to acquire data from the PicoScope® 5203 and 5204 Oscilloscopes and control in-built signal generator functionality. The data could be processed in MATLAB using functions from Toolboxes such as Signal Processing Toolbox.
The examples are provided as MATLAB scripts and live scripts and demonstrate how to acquire data using the following acquisition modes:
- Block
- Rapid Block
- Streaming
Please note that these examples are not compatible with the PicoScope 5000 Series Flexible Resolution Oscilloscopes - these are supported by the PicoScope 5000 Series - MATLAB Generic Instrument Driver.
- MATLAB for Microsoft Windows (32- or 64-bit) or Linux operating systems (64-bit).
- The PicoScope Support Toolbox
- The PicoSDK C Wrapper Binaries
Notes:
- MATLAB 2015b is recommended for 32-bit versions of MATLAB on Microsoft Windows operating systems.
We recommend using the Add-Ons Explorer in MATLAB in order to install these files and obtain updates.
If your version of MATLAB does not have the Add-Ons Explorer, download the zip file from the MATLAB Central File Exchange page and add the root and sub-folders to the MATLAB path.
Drivers are available for the following platforms. Refer to the subsections below for further information.
- Download the PicoSDK (32-bit or 64-bit) driver package installer from our Downloads page.
- Follow the instructions from our Linux Software & Drivers for Oscilloscopes and Data Loggers page to install the required
libps5000driver package. For streaming data collection, thelibpswrappersdriver package will also need to be installed.
You can download the Programmer's Guide providing a description of the API functions for the ps5000 driver from our Documentation page.
