DPRG mailing list archives: DPRG: [OT] One last O-scope question

Thu Sep 3 14:52:41 CDT 1998

Hi,
        First off I wanted to thank everyone for thier replys to my
question. (The number of response from everyone was unbelievable over 70
messages!) I would like to ask you for some more help, I hope that is ok
:)
        I think I have decided to buy a TDS210 (the TDS220 would be
nice, but a little to pricey :)).  One thing I had a question about is
do you think the size of the scope inflates the price of it much?  I
mean the size sounds great but it isn't worth to much to me.   
        Another question I have is what does "Sensitivity (with
calibrated fine adjustment) - 10 mV to 5 V/div at full bandwidth; 2 mV
to 5 V/div at 20 MHz" mean? I know what sensitivity is, but is 10 mV to
5 V/div good?        
	And another really basic question, about scopes in general:  Can
you measure things like RC timing circuits, digital circuits, such as
AND and OR gates, and do you find your scope to be useful in everyday
robotics' type circuits(for those of you that own a scope)?

Thanks a lot!,
