  1. Oscilloscope and Network Analysis by Agripa · · Score: 1 · on Ask Slashdot: PC-Based Oscilloscopes On a Microbudget?

    I generally recommend against USB test instruments because of their shortcomings but for a USB based oscilloscope, I would at least get one which supports network analysis which may be particularly useful for students:

  3. Oscilloscope by GabeGuillen · · Score: 1 · on Ask Slashdot: PC-Based Oscilloscopes On a Microbudget?

    Here is a link to an instrument (CGR-101) that I purchased a few years ago. The equipment is manufactured in Toronto. http://www.syscompdesign.com/I... The software is open source and can be used with Linux, Windows or Mac. I have found this product to be extremely useful and versatile. All of the required components will fit in a laptop case.

  4. Sys Comp Design - Cirguit Gear by icknay · · Score: 1 · on Ask Slashdot: PC-Based Oscilloscopes On a Microbudget?

    Check out the circuit-gear units. The new "mini" is just $99 http://www.syscompdesign.com/C... I have the previous generation unit. I've enjoyed it for just hacking around, and it's great for demos, since the computer it's hooked up to can be projected. The GUI software for it is open-source, so that's neat.

  5. Solved (Courtesy of Peter Hiscocks at TLUG) by davecb · · Score: 4, Informative · on Oscilloscopes For Modern Engineers?

    ... at http://gtalug.org/wiki/Meetings:2005-12, Peter demonstrated the virtual oscilloscope and virtual function generator applications, which are available as open source.

    The hardware unit (approx 3 x 6 x 1" thick) is available at http://www.syscompdesign.com/CGR101.html

  6. Re:Ask your local amateur radio club by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on User Interface of Major Oscilliscope Brands?

    Oh, I dunno...I'm a regular slashdot AC...:-)

    I have a hobby level oscilloscope that plugs into the USB port of my netbook...:-)
    Specs aren't super, and not really appropriate for a university lab, but for hobbyists, experimenters,
    hackers, (many slashdotters? :-)), and especially those on a low budget, it very easily fits in my laptop bag...:-)

    Designed and built by a retired university prof...:-)

  7. Re:USB 'scope FTW by BLAG-blast · · Score: 1 · on User Interface of Major Oscilliscope Brands?

    The DSO-101 does 2MHz: http://www.syscompdesign.com/oscilloscope.htm I think bitscope goes higher. Both Bitscope and DSO-101 seem to have open source software (which might be of interested to some).

  8. IANAEE so I am asking here... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on User Interface of Major Oscilliscope Brands?

    I Am Not An Electrical Engineer, but I am looking at getting deeper into electronics (I got my Extra Class Ham Radio license recently). I have seen this:

    http://www.saleae.com/logic/

    And this:

    http://www.syscompdesign.com/circuitgear.htm

    That at the hobbyist level look affordable and functional, but I have no background to really evaluate them. Perhaps this is on-topic for this story?

    Does anyone know if they are even worth a try?
