A good digital oscilloscope?

Hi all, I think I'm going to try and treat myself to an oscilloscope thisChristmas. I've managed to go without one for the last 15 years or so and,frankly, did not have a burning need or even much space for it. I do somedigital design (PIC...

Which small ceramic capacitors have the worst microphonics?

Does anyone know which tiny MLCC have the worst microphonics? Brand, series? I want to do some tests to see how well these things can sense low pitch sound, mainly via changes in capacitance but also piezo effects. Main reason is that I...

Scope Trigger for digital scope

I am designing a digital scope. This is just for learning. I alreadyhave a nice 200MHz scope. I will be using a pair of ADS5410 ADCs(80MHz 12 bit 1GHz analog bandwidth). I need to be able to deal withsignals above 40MHz so I will need...

Oscilloscopes

What's the best scope to get for the money for mostly digital circuits? I'll have some analog but nothing real high frequency, like analog connections to the microcontroller, maybe some SMPS circuits. I was looking at some microcontroller...

PC Based Oscilliscopes

Anyone use these? Any recommendations good or bad? I am looking at some thathave Scope, Meter, Spectrum Analysis, etc. Are the "multi-use" type PCscopes any good? I see some that are down around $200-300? which is in myprice...
