Hi all, after reading the other thread about the various mini scopes I purchased one of these from Sparkfun for $AUD99.95:
It only turned up today so haven't had a good play around with but upgraded to the BenF firmware and looks good for the price. Quite a nice screen and build quality looks pretty decent for the price. I've got an Agilent DSO but thought this would be ideal to whip out for quick tests like checking a serial line at least has data coming out it, and generally tracing that low speed control signals are doing something. Obviously not a replacement for "proper" gear but I can see it'll save some frustration moving and setting up the bigger gear just to find a broken cable or that a clock multiplier is vastly wrong.
Being open source when time permits I might also have a go at adding a serial analyser to view micro debug output and that GPS modules are working and have acquired etc. When / if I get around to that it that should time having to setup a PC and flip adapters for 3V / 5V / RS232 etc.
First time I've been here for a while, I'm Peter that used to run CommLinx Solutions and it's good to see a few familiar names still around the place.
