At least good for 200MHz
At least 8 digital inputs
Dicent screen and controls (usb scope will also be good)
Some level of channel OV protection
Basic functioning triggering
FFT function
Exporting plots to matlab
Hopefully 4 analog inputs
Also hopefully arbitrary function gen included
And im hoping to spend less then 1000usd
Except for "Exporting plots to matlab" (which I know nothing about), I think there are two scopes that meet these requirement (assuming you're OK with the widely available hacks):
- Siglent SDS1104X-E ($500) - can be hacked to 200MHz and to enable all options.
You'd need to also purchase the SAG1021i hardware option for wavegen ($165) and SLA1016 ($335) hardware for digital logic inputs.
The total list price would be $1000. You can often find the scope itself for less than list; I'm not sure how often the wavegen and logic modules are offered at a discount.
- Rigol MSO5072 ($909) - can be hacked to 350MHz and all options including all 4 analog inputs
No external wavegen module is needed. For digital logic you need the PLA2216 digital probe kit ($399).
So list price would come to $1308 - BUT you can find discounts for MS05000 scopes (but I don't think as often as for SDS1104X-E) and there are 3rd party logic probes available on eBay for under $100 - though I can't speak to their quality. They appear to be based on discussions on this forum about designs for alternatives to the expensive PLA2216.
Also, if you go the MSO5000 route you might want to consider starting off with the MSO5074 instead for $90 more since it comes with 4 probes instead of 2.
