Posted: 2008-01-30, 17:28 Desktop Oscilloscope VS USB Scopes
Hi there,
I am a second year electrical engineering student and in the process of buying a scope. I'm confused whether I should get a USB Oscilloscope or a Digital Desktop scope? I have mostly heard that the USB scopes aren't that good and that their internal impedance isn't high enough and as such they don't measure accurately - Also, getting a PC scope setup to display a decent wave form takes longer than with a normal scope?
I have never used a USB scope, and I've only ever worked with the analogue scopes at University. Which is ultimately a better, faster and more robust measuring instrument, the USB scope or the Digital Desktop Scope?
Your opinions and advice will be greatly appreciated!
