Test Equipment / Re: Choosing between entry-level 12-bit DSOs
« Last post by Fungus on Today at 07:47:23 am »There are specific posts in this thread covering most of this, but a summary doesn't hurt.
Rigol Pros: HDMI, VESA mount, WiFi built in.
Smaller size, battery option, more accessible UI, easy/neat Wifi with web/ftp access to the 'scope...
Rigol can go to 100MHz (or 125MHz) but is severely limited by its sampling rate.
Nope. Rigol can go to 280Mhz measured bandwidth, and shows signal far beyond that.
I wouldn't leave it at that bandwidth for general use but it's there if you need it and it only takes about 10 seconds to switch the model.
There's also 225MHz, 200Mhz and 125MHz options.
The lower sample rate sounds scary but when you're looking at real-life signals with probes clipped onto wires? Not so much.
(And there's no problem at all with 1 or 2 channels)
