Show us your square wave

ADT123:
Richard - I designed most of the real time scopes with a parallel port starting with the ADC-10 in 1991 and hung up my soldering iron around 2001 with the ADC212/100 which included repetitive ETS sampling (https://www.picotech.com/about/history).

As for a lower cost / lower bandwidth sampling scope its an interesting idea.  Above a few GHz every component gets expensive if you want to do the job properly (connectors, PCB etc) but below say 5GHz things get a lot cheaper.  Will have a think.  Guess it depends on the market - hobby users often go for 2nd hand boat anchors which can be cheap and to be honest not everyone knows how to drive a sampling scope (splitters for trigger signals etc).

10/90 vs 20/80 rise time - thats a fair cop.  I just borrowed a waveform so when I get a chance will see if I can do better.

Tabor 8025, programmed to be 1Vpp, 50 MHz, 50 ohm terminated. 10%/90% rise time is 5.2ns, fall is 4.65ns.

ADT123:
10/90 rise time (see comment from Electro Fan a couple of posts again).  Scope rise time is 14ps, pulse rise time is 10ps.  Combined gives 18.74ps.

Please dont try to beat this - not sure I can respond with anything faster!



MrW0lf:
Noticed that on last Pico screenshot sampling rate is mere 10TSa/s, while on previous 16TSa/s ::) But guess both are adequate being "slightly" over Nyquist :P

It is very competitive with the best rise time we have previously seen (~16ps by EV):
