Hmm, Siligent seem to be better value for money.

Compare the two 'scopes.

As far as I can tell, both are pretty similar, except the Atten has 40k of storage and the Silgent has 2M of storage.

I found the Atten on ebay for £229, the Silgent was £31 more but it's not much more expensive considering the extra memory. The Atten does have one advantage: a nice wide screen: 480x234 as opposed to 320x234 but the vastly greater memory is probably worth much more than an extra 160 pixels of display width.

Seems you CAN have both the wide Screen AND the 2Mpts memory, but you have to pay another $100 or so for it.
Enter the ATTEN ADS1102CML

I'm doing a bit of PWM control, PPM and a bit of simple logic stuff, so I convinced myself I need a scope that I can capture a bit of data stream with, rightly or wrongly.

I'd almost finished choosing a new DSO and had settled on the now ubiquitous RIGOL DS1052E, rejecting other budget makes for their short Memory depth. Like the UNI-T UTD2102CEL 2 x 600Mpts and others with even less memory.

Along comes the Siglent SDS1102CM 2Mpts and the ATTEN ADS 1102CML 2 Mpts to confuse the issue.

There again, internet shopping is a hobby in itself isn't it. 8^)

I just got the scope shipped today, and must say I love it!

My first tests included only calibrating the probes with the built in 1KHz generator, and walking through the many menu functions.

I also installed the PC software , and got a few screen captures from the scope, via the back USB cable. This connector can also be used to connect a printer directly, but I didn't test that yet.

The front USB connector I tested with a memory stick, and was able to browse the files on the stick, create a new dir, and save data in multiple formats.

Everything works good, and so far it provided a very good first impression.

Siglent is the ODM for ATTEN at first and then Lecroy/BK, its website says "The Biggest ODM in the World" God knows whether it's true or not

Hi all,

Sorry for resurrecting an old(er) thread - however, this was the only page that I got, when looking for the ID f4ec:ee38, which is also emitted from the ADS1202CL+.

So, I wanted to notify the forum that I had just released an application that utilises libusb-1.0, and can be used to fetch data from (at least) the ADS1202CL+ - please check:

http://sdaaubckp.sourceforge.net/attenload

Given what the thread https://www.eevblog.com/forum/product-reviews-photos-and-discussion/easyscope-list-of-digital-oscilloscopes-that-use-it/ reports, it is possible this application could interface with other brands/models as well - but it's down to people to try for themselves...

Anyways - I'm not likely to maintain the code much, as it already does what I want it to do; but now that it is released, maybe it will be useful to others.

Cheers!
