    This awesome oscilloscope does it all. I've shown it in every major video in last months and now I thought I'd make another compressed overview video. As a mixed signal oscilloscope it has 4 analog channels, 16 digital channels and an FFT function that is almost as good as a GHz spectrum analyzer. But my favorite features are in the software: It boots quickly, has fantastic usability and a browser-based remote control!
    I've carefully repeated the fact that I have to send it back, because some German bureaucrats seem to be sending out cease and desist orders for illegal advertising. I have never been paid for a review video, but when a sponsored product is worth more than 1000 EUR it would be considered payment.

    Hahaha love your humor mate, I'm always here watching your videos. I particularly loved the explosion part for some reason + the blackout + the crickets in the background hahaha
    I'm still using my Rigol MSO for logic analyser functions, its basic but kinda does the job. First time I saw your R&S scope I was kinda jealous I have to admit haha I was like "WTFFFFFF $$$$$$" hahaha
    I can fee your sadness returning it...

    The thing this scope would benefit from is probably a faster reacting gui so the touchscreen feels a bit more natural. It is a step in the right direction imo

    @BrianLough 6 років тому

    Could I ask what is potentially a pretty dumb question, but what would the advantages of something like this over USB logic analyzers be? (other than the awesome scope, but just from a logic analysis point of view)
    Great video as always, but the amount of Flamingoos in the video was disappointingly low

    • @RemcoStoutjesdijk
      @RemcoStoutjesdijk 6 років тому +2

      Real-time trigger, display and update. The USB ones just do a single capture on a trigger condition. Then again, they can store almost indefinitely. Each has their own purpose.

    • @superdau
      @superdau 6 років тому +1

      If you are capturing simple UART, not much. But if you need to trigger on an analog voltage for example that's somewhere else in the circuit and want to capture some digital data around that that trigger and see the analog waveform, you will need something like this scope.

  • @aaronlow1977
    @aaronlow1977 6 років тому +1

    I have to agree with the vid and comments that R&S equipment is top notch. I use R&S almost exclusively in my lab. I haven't found any piece of theirs that doesn't work as expected. I have had many pieces of Agilent/Keysight stuff that is junk in comparison. I purchased two inexpensive function generators and one display backlight didn't work and one knob didn't work directly from the factory. I have also used the E444x series spectrum analyzers and they are horribly inaccurate and drift badly untill they warm up for a few hours. Every R&S spectrum analyzer I have used is stable and accurate even after a cold start. There stuff is more expensive than Keysight and generally have a slightly odd UI, but their performance is phenomenal. I have two RTO series scopes and they have the best performance of any scope I have ever used.

  • @KeanM
    @KeanM 6 років тому +1

    Thanks for the summary (& laughs). I just ordered my RTB2K-COM4 & carry case, instead of the Rigol MSO4034 I had planned to get. The local R&S sales rep brought one out to my office for a trial, but it was pretty quick so good to hear from you and others the good & bad. While I love the large display, I am not sure I like the touchscreen, so I think I'm going to try it with a wireless mouse. I just wish I could have justified the cost for a RTM3000 and get the extra decodes and math functions (and speed).

    I have a HMO3522, for 7 years my daily use scope. I still like it but I like the touchscreens from the new models. I also bought the LA but without the protocol decoders. Are they still so stupid expensive ? (I bought a zero-plus, comes with over 120 free protocols) I now use the HMO's LA to check things like the order in which relais switch in a secutest.
    Funny review, i liked it.

    4:05 How does this scope with 300MHz bandwidth manage to perform an FFT (presumably using a "math" function on CH1 input) with a result at 868MHz (let alone 2.4GHz)?

    • @kti5682
      @kti5682 Рік тому

      Oversampling is the answer. The bandwidth is the filter bandwidth not the Nyquist bandwidth. You can actually measure signals outside the passband but they will be attenuated. I suspect they used a low order filter with good passband flatness to give you accurate results in the passband.
