In the last year or so I spent significant amounts of time trying to figure out why this or that part of whatever elecrtonics project I’ve been tinkering with is not working properly. This convinced me that I really need to get an oscilloscope. Several visits to my favorite electonics stores turned up two kind of oscilloscopes: (a) small and very expensive, and (b) cheap and very big. Since I am a stingy apartment dweller neither of these options worked for me.
So, I started digging through the Net, searching for oscilloscopes that are both relatively small and relatively inexpensive, checking out specifications and reading reviews and comments. At the end I narrowed down the choice to the following three options:
DSO Nano |
HPS10 Handheld Oscilloscope |
DIY osciloscope kit from NKC Electronics |
Today I ordered one of these scopes (I’m not telling which one!). When it arrives and when I get to play with it for a while I’ll write a short review. Stay posted for updates.
