SmartScope Offer

[mnfisher]

For a few days (till 2/2/26) the LabNation SmartScope is on offer at Elektor ( https://www.elektor.com/products/labnat ... s=e&_v=1.0) for £67.15 (+VAT)

I've used mine for many years (and it is always on the desk) - although it doesn't have the fastest sampling rate, I have found it to be a very useful tool - especially the logic analyser (i2c/ UART / SPI decoder etc). It works nicely on PC, tablet (or a bit small) with a phone.

Hi Martin

I got the same email and did look at it. I have even put it in my cart....

However a few months back I obtained a "Scopemeter" from them in their Summer / today ends in a "Y" sale, so probably not going to give in to temptation this time, but it would be very handy when travelling.

At that price (++) it's a bargain for Dual Channels / Logic Analyser / Spectrum Analyser/ Signal Generator and I'm talking myself into buying it........

Regards

Edit....
In the last fifteem minutes or so I gave in to temptation adding it to my collection, mainly for the spectrum analyser function. If you ever need about 14 scope channels connected up, or about 32 data lines analysed gimme a shout...<s>

Didn't know about the spectrum analyser - will have to check that out.

Never used the frequency generator either (it always seems a bit 'fiddly') - and if you get really fancy it's all open-source - so you can add the feature you need

Still comes highly recommended.

Hi

I see the screenshots that you post so I know it will suit me well.

As for Spectrum, I'm only going on the downloaded manual that claims such.

I'm hoping that it does indeed do it, as I think it will be a good adddition when using the SysBlocks. I work on a little audio project when I get time, which the SysBlock does make a breeze. Pain until hopefully now is checking individual frequencies with a scope.

Yes - it does do that

Excellent..... Waveform generator at one end of SysBlocks, Spectrum at the other.....
