Yes, I expect many fried 50ohm inputs. Maybe they couldn't get the bandwidth (and response shape) they wanted with the bigger part.

Puffin is common on the east coast of Canada especially Gaspe Quebec.

@@EEVblog I can see the one accessory being sold will be a 50R inline termination that can handle 5W, probably with 6dB attenuation or more, so that you can actually use the 50R input. Otherwise a warning when selecting 50R that your input range is limited to 1V only. Looks like the team was the one that did the spectrum analysers.

A puffin might be better than a weird egg-laying poisonous mammal.

@@EEVblog Reported yet another impersonator......

No whackers

His SNR is like -42 dB

Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner!!

True plus the Aussie sayings. Give it a Squizz...LOL.

Thanks for letting us know, the interface between the SoC and FPGA was one of the things I was wondering about, PCIe is a really nice fit for this application indeed!

It's at the heart of a few single board computers too.

Thanks, much appreciated.

I never even saw it till you pointed it out. Way cool boombox. Dave should do a tear down on it soon.

@@Seiskid Uh... hopefully not doing tear-down on that Sharp Stereo 😁 Those "history" pieces should remain as they are.

Maybe even have all inputs at the same temp, to reduce differences between the inputs on the same signal.

I also like the way they integrated heatsinking, temperature equalization and shielding into a single die-cast part.

@@aDaWaN Makes sense, after all a single spin cast mould that integrates it all is going to be cheaper in the assembly line, and you can get great dimensional stability in that single part as well so minimal machining work to get good results. You need a heat sink, so makes sense to have a single part then for the entire range, and it definitely cuts the cost down in assembly. Spin cast, run through a single CNC mill to level the critical paths, and drill the holes and tap them, and be done. One fixturing clamp only needed, and perhaps 3 minutes of machining time total. 400 per machine per day is probably faster than the rest of the production line.

A Scopex is a proper scope, Granted not a DSO but still i have 3 CRO's and i still use them

No 50ohm input or active probe inputs.

@@EEVblog Oddly enough hdo1000 user manual 5.4 says: When the input impedance is set to "50 Ω", the channel coupling is set to DC coupling by force. Am confused.

@@bakagaijin7452 Probably used with external 50R terminator, and software sets the input to DC coupled when you select the 50R termination for the display unit.

It's way better than the universally panned Tek series 2.

@@NeverTalkToCops1 It's hardly "universally panned". By who? It's a nice scope, it's just not great bang-per-buck. But bang-per-buck is not Tek's domain.

@@EEVblog Tek is more the buck per bang, and being at the bleeding edge, for the time. Then stay as the solid reference for the following 3 decades, to use as a reference device for all who use them.

@@EEVblog Panned by MANY commenters to your video. How casually you dismiss the "bang for buck" factor. "... Not great bang per buck"? Of course, the Tek 2 series is horrible bang for buck. Who buys an 8 bit scope when this 12 bit Rigol scope is available at less bucks? Even Rhode & Schwarz will have sales of their 10 bit RTB 2004 scopes suffer because of these 12 bit Rigol offerings.

@@SeanBZA IF your criteria depends on gear being a viable "reference device" for 3 decades, then have at it. How is the Tek series 2 "bleeding edge" at 8 bit resolution a better value than these Rigol 12 bit offerings.

That leaves us with 1 question: Why would you want to connect your scope to the internet?

@@JCGver 1 Remote users on the internet can see exactly what you are seeing during a test by logging into the scope with secure username and a password 2 Email test results such as screenshots or JPEG video of the test to others on the web.3 Download new 'app' to change scope functions. 4 Save test results to the CLOUD for future analysis and viewing. you can store unlimited amount of data to the cloud 5 Using an embedded web server, a remote operator can run the scope from anywhere on the planet, 6 Factory diagnostics in case of failure. 7 Factory calibration and firmware upgrade 8 You can download third-party apps for various analysis, you don't have to depend on Rigol for their limited analytical library... and many more applications. I hope that gives you an idea of why test equipment are getting connected to the World Wide Web

@@nicmate2543 - Wake up! it's no dream. It's reality. Most modern electronic equipment are internet connected.

try username root and psw rigol XD

well.... 1. You learn by watching and paying attention (Your brain has a funny way of putting things together even if you don't immediately understand it) 2. You can download his videos 3. if you need to ask a shit load of questions i'm happy to jump on zoom with you or whatever to explain a few things to you that's how you learn by being curious pulling shit apart and asking questions

@@martinkuliza that's very very kind loool thank you. I'm not beginner tho, currently in BS ECE, been doing electronics hobby since 4 yrs old. I know the context of what dave is saying. I'm just exaggerating because I really do feel I'm still absolutely stupid compared to people like you who are highly knowledgeable and experienced with this field. I hope I could learn more forever. Love electronics.

@@omniyambot9876 LOL, ok then 1. RE "been doing electronics hobby since 4 yrs old." How cool is that... Me too, from 4 years old haha 2. Well then if your'e not a beginner you'll pick it up, My advise is, Just keep watching the videos over and over , if you watch it enough and don't focus too hard, it'll sink it and your brain will make sense of it Ultimately if you love electronics you don't even need to worry because it'll happen naturally , Just watch the videos be cool

@@martinkuliza yeah you're absolutely right. Just enjoying these videos, I think I naturally pick up the ideas as time goes by..

@@omniyambot9876 Indeed, I remember when i was young pulled apart a Stereo and looking inside at the mainboard and marvelling at the wonders of the PCB and then looking at the SMD's and wondering What are they ? Will i ever understand those things and what they do ? and then thinking, I can never understand this , i mean you need to be a genius to figure this shit out and you know what mate, at the age of 49 i can tell you this DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT Just keep being curious, Keep learning and Keep pulling shit apart, and sooner or later your brain will give you the answer Truth is , at one point or another we are all geniuses I get called a genius all the time, I'm not a genius , I just pay attention to shit and just as you are now marvelling at me and dave and thinking that our knowledge surpasses your own ONE DAY YOU WILL LEARN THIS SHIT AND SOMEONE WILL MARVEL AT YOU AS BEING A GENIUS AND HOW YOUR KNOWLEDGE SURPASSES THEIR OWN and they will wonder "How can i ever be as smart as Omni Yambot" See mate... it's all relative We are not geniuses, it's just that people that have less knowledge than us see us and interpret THE DIFFERENCE IN KNOWLEDGE as "Genius" LOL The dictionary defines it as EXCEPTIONAL INTELLECTUAL OR CREATIVE POWER but what we have here is not EXCEPTIONAL KNOWLEDGE it's just DIFFERENCE IN LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE based on age and experience therefore..... YOU TOO WILL ONE DAY BE A GENIUS or... at least "Seem to be" LOL don't worry about it mate, I'll happen, just do what you're doing and you'll get it

If it is, you can buy the exact stickers on Aliexpress.

IT IS Legal in Australia they can legally refuse your warranty if the sticker is violated and i'll tell you how i know this Many moons ago when i bought my DS2000A Series Rigol scope as we all did, i did my upgrade to 300MHz Anyway, i went into Emona Instruments at one point and they figured they'd come out with the question and face me with it well... Little did they realize , i handle pressure extremely well and i don't give 2 fucks about what they think In a nutshell, they asked "so... you did the upgrade illegally did you ?" i said to them, "No, I didn't do anything illegal, but i did do the upgrade" The scope is mine i can do what i want with it they asked "so you removed the warranty sticker did you " I said "well.... You can see the warranty sticker is intact and un damaged and not violated" they went on about a speech regarding "well, we know you took it off" and i said "well, regardless of what you think you know the sticker acts as evidence of tampering and as you can see the sticker has not been violated and is still intact" THEY HONOURED THE WARRANTY so yes, it's legal But... Had i said directly "Yes, i removed the sticker" this would have been enough to void the warranty instead, i said "well. You can see it's still intact" In Australia there is a big difference there , legally speaking. and ... LOL.. He actually tried to debate with me as to whether i was doing something wrong. and i said, Mate, it's my scope, i can throw it in the bin, i can piss on it if i want , i can pull it apart and take the components out, it's my scope When he said, but it's our software i said... "well, You shouldn't have been so stupid so as to lock it via software, and you should have been smart enough to know who you are selling to and what the product is, what did you expect us to do , We are technical people, as soon as we get something home, we open it and check it out, did you honestly expect no one to interrogate the firmware ? so.. since you were banking on no one finding out and we did, i suppose you'll learn for next time won't you , as for now, you gotta cop it on the chin" he said, when you bring in your scope for service we'll just roll back the update to 70MHz and i said "actually , no you won't , what you will do is LEAVE THE SCOPE IN A SIMILAR CONDITION AND STATE TO WHICH I BROUGHT IT TO YOU IN" they had no way out of this , they just had to grin and bear it Most people kept quiet about the upgrade, i didn't give a fuck

Aren’t they flightless like penguins? If so that might make it swimming rather than flying.

@@coryengel No, they fly. Very fast too - over 85 KPH.

Care factor ZERO!

@@EEVblog They sent it knowing it was doomed to be dissected, so know the sticker is going to be sacrificed. They gave the strongest one they had though.

Well, Artix7 has to do fast ADC interface, fast memory, advanced triggering... All that stuff eats resources quickly and hardcore is faster and way cheaper than bodging a softcore into FPGA Do FPGA stuff in FPGA and CPU stuff in dedicated CPU.

@@henninghoefer I don't know my 2D codes well enough to know the difference. I was just surprised by the way it was made, with vias.

That's because the hardware is an 800MHz scope, only the firmware limits it to 200MHz. You can buy a license code from Rigol and unlock the higher bandwidths.

BGAs actually aren't too bad anymore; even if you're not comfortable with or don't have a good hot air gun they have a broad hoof attachment for most irons that let you take them off in seconds. Then you can stencil on some solder paste (stencils are optional, but cheap and helpful), heat it again to create the ball, and then plop it back down and zap it again quick with some heat and you're done!

I think the hardest part for me with custom chips is the supply. Dries up quickly after production and then you're dead in the water if you need one down the road.

@@Chilangosta - in theory that is OK but in practice it's hard to get a reliable repair. You can't see if your solder connections are all OK. Did you know that they check BGA connections with an X-Ray system in the factories?

@@Chilangosta - yes - they make only a certain number of chips and that's it. Factories will often order an extra 10% to keep as spare stock so they can do repairs and that's all there is. They use too many custom chips to cut down the cost of mass production. In the good old days design engineers would try their best to use chips that were available from at least 3 different sources but not anymore. Some chips now even need factory firmware to operate them too. You'd never be give that. The repair game is a thing of the past in many cases.

You hack it by hand entering bits via the small pushbuttons on the board. This takes 12 hours, and if you make a mistake, the scope becomes bricked.

good for measuring low frequency noise/drift for power supply circuit?

I was also confused. Everything should be software controlled.

you mean to say you do not take apart new stuff immediately? its where all the cool stuff is

"Don't turn it on, take it apart!"

It may not be a high end SoC indeed but there was a time not so long ago when a scope did not need a 6 core 64-bit CPU running at 2 GHz 😉

@@MrJef06 and that's.how you get sluggish unresponsive UI as soon as you do anything than displaying a basic waveform. That manufacturers always cheaped out and put underperforming soc does not excuse them
