i owned a ds1054z and it took me years to learn that:
|
|
|
|
the scope is slow when using the knobs, however
|
|
it is really powerful (although i have not tested personally)
|
|
with its scripting / automation capability. so to me
|
|
the 1054z is all about connecting it via usb or ethernet
|
|
and using it via python or whatever.
|
|
|
|
i would probably not use it as a general use scope. only for
|
|
scripting (which it seems to excel at).
|
|
|
|
(as an aside, if you look at some products, they also seem to
|
|
fall into this unspoken realm of 'good for automation, not
|
|
good for general use'. i.e. the digital calipers you can get
|
|
online or at harbor freight. i don't like the idea of the
|
|
battery dying on me after a couple years, so i prefer analog
|
|
calipers. BUT, if you consider using them in some form of
|
|
automation, then digital calipers are perfect. then it makes
|
|
sense, why they are everywhere.)

test ideas with 1054z scope
|
|
=====================
|
|
strictly logging:
|
|
solar panel, test battery, solar levels,
|
|
measure voltage differentials or resistance of
|
|
meat as it is ageing (would need to be in a fridge).
|
|
as a vna:
|
|
characterize RC or other filter performance see: https://github.com/jp3141/Vector-Network-Analyzer
|
|
not really something you'd automate over time i don't think.
|
|
take a signal you see, output waveform to csv
|
|
reoutput on a signal gen
|
|
|
|
|
|
possibly i could enable all measurements
|
|
https://nathankjer.com/ds1054z/
|
|
and then record all these values.
|
|
deep dive into timing errors with a micro:
|
|
https://elexperiment.nl/2019/05/automating-measurements-with-the-rigol-ds1054z/
|
|
can measure fft as well, see nathankjer link.
|
|
can do 'mask testing' or give alert if signal goes out of a specified range.
|
|
there's probably some other stuff, watch the eevblog video which goes over the
|
|
features.
|
|
|
|
as another option the analog discovery might do some of the above as well.
|
|
no idea which is better / easier. would have to use both and do a review.
|
|
|
|
guessing: the rigol would have better performance but larger footprint
|
|
|
|
with the usb type logic analyzer scopes you have something you can
|
|
stick with a beagleboard on a customers site and do some potentially
|
|
easy but still powerful logging. basically you get the software and the
|
|
dacs of the usb boxes with the linux of the sbc. so no need to mess with
|
|
the pru or c, can just use the usb scope's software via api
