    One of the recent magazines had a 2-part series on this. Don't remember which one off hand, but it was either EPE, Circuit Cellar, or Nuts & Volts.

    Hi friends,

    the PC Scope project was published on Everyday Practical Electronics ( http://www.epemag.com ) on August 2007 and September 2007 ( US$ 5,00 each electronic copy - PDF )

    Regards.

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Mister_e,

    When you manage to source out a 500MHz Tektronix digital scope w/ colour LCD screen & PC link -- then become excited

    500Mhz Color DSO ?

    A little Overkill for PIC work.

    And I get excited when I buy something inexpensive that does exactly what I need.

    I admit it -- I was spoilt in my last job having a Tektronix DSO. Had colour screen, direct readouts for RMS, PP, cursors and so on ... In fact, it was an overkill for the circuits that it was primarily used on (mostly RF on the 27MHz band) However, I believe it aided in speedy repairs. The old golden rule of thumb with CRO's is; it's better to have bandwidth of 5x that of what you expect to measure. A 500MHz CRO isn't suitable for anywhere near 500MHz work unfortunately.
