Description
Chase Scientific was originally founded as a consulting firm in 1987, specializing in advanced high speed analog and digital communication channels for the magnetic storage industry. Chase Scientific first entered the computer based instrument market in 1989 by introducing the world's first complete PC-based Oscilloscope family of add-on cards designed exclusively for the IBM compatible PC. Each oscilloscope system included a single add-on card and a full graphics interface package (GUI) with automatic test capabilities. Bandwidths ranged from 10MHz to 100MHz. This product family was phased out by 1997 in favor of custom OEM designs which focused solely on the Embedded Instrument Market including High Speed Data Acquisition and Signal Generation.
