I bought this scope new a few days ago. Looks good so far, but the top function button is shorter than the others and is about one or two millimetres shorter than the rest and feels way less tactile (you can't feel any feedback on pressing it). I think this is a fault in the production, because when I opened it up to check if it's stuck, it seemed all fine apart from the difference in height for that single button on that rubber sheet. But because of the way how it's made, I think mine is just one of many with this issue. Can anyone else confirm that?

One dozen cheap scopes < one good scope. I have a Rigol MSO1104Z with all options. It does a lot very well, but falls short for serious SPI or I2C troubleshooting. Falls short on Math functions too. And there are a few things that my ancient Hitachi V-1050F still does better such as X-Y timebase. Knowing what I know now, I would have saved up for the MSO5104 with all options at twice the price.

I have to see the video in pauses paul because my eyes are terrible and require a new pair of lenses + filter for UV. So far so good, but thats a really nice compact scope, it will leave the bench with extra space or carrrying around for external service. At 7:00 there is a M symbol when you select Probe ou MeasureCurr, Does it means it has extra options by pressing one button called Menu or M? ( Edit it appear when it has a numerical value or the extra manual that has to be manually changed by knob , thats a feature for indication). Screen looks crisp

Hi All, want to ask a favour, i recently bought the Hanmatek clone of this scope off ebay and the 5.5v power supply has died on me(no output), i have modified the casing to take an external dc input so i can still use it. I cannot find a circuit diagram for this scope, i have checked all caps, diodes(except unmarked zener where voltage very low) transformer, i suspect either the PN8149 or optocoupler EL817. there is also a surface mount transistor but no markings on it, if anyone knows where i can find a circuit diagram for this power supply would be appreciated?

I just got the 4 channel version of this scope which is the SDS1104 since you replied that Owon scopes are pretty decent in another video, and I gotta thank you cause the scope really is pretty damn good for the price and it was even $100 cheaper than the Rigol 1054Z. Amazing how crisp and bright the screen is on the Owon (doesn't really come across on video) and it works really well and I love that it doesn't have any obnoxious fans humming in the background Considering they are using near identical model names to the Siglent scopes it was a bit of a red flag to me initially but clearly Owon makes decent stuff, absolutely a phenomenal 4 channel scope for the price and I'm surprised there isn't more coverage on them cause I could definitely see it being a Rigol killer and the 1054Z has been on the market for maybe a bit too long anyway

Hello! I'm still searching for the model I want to buy. But I guess that this OWON is better than that low budget FNIRSI, isn't it? At least it's powered by a PSU, not from an external "phone charger". And they've put metal thread insertions in the case instead of a raw plastic. I've seen how you've broke that case in another review. Yeah, the cageless PSU looks aweful... But at least they've put radiators on the processing units. Hantek doesn't do that :D And their similar model(s) is more expensive. My main concern... Do I need a function generator if I'll be working with small BJT transistors? Also the main thing I want to know: how good is this (SDS1102) scope measuring DC voltages below 1v? Another review (with comparison) did show that Hantek and FNIRSI are in "anywhere than the actual value" range in terms of low DC measuring.

Hello, thankful for the review. I was quite happy about the layout and working of the unit until... you opened it up. It looks way too cheap to function reliably when measuring reliability and service life is concerned. Perhaps I am wrong but even the power supply section looks quite dreadful. Did it make it to the second year? I am on the market for a scope and I don't really know if I'll throw my money on something like this or the copy from Hanmatek. I am certainly a beginner but once I begin I make frequent use of my tools and I feel like buying this it might last me a couple of years without component failure before I'll have to buy something more decent, something that I should have bought in the first place to have the peace of mind of more robust measurements and prolonged service life.

@phillipbartlett1819 4 жыл бұрын

But your missing the point of your probes cost more than the scope. Most people don't need that ability. But I looked hard at owon and bought Rigol when I got my new scope. Sometimes a little more money is well spent.

@TheDigitalAura 4 жыл бұрын

@@phillipbartlett1819 True. I originally used a Rigol but I found the Serial decode to be annoyingly slow so upgraded to a Keysight. These cheap scopes do leave me wondering if they're useful even for beginners however as they lack many features beginners need. Serial decode etc is very useful even if you're just messing around with Arduino.

@josemesquita603 3 жыл бұрын

That is not a bad scope, considering the price. I have one and it performs well above 100MHz. I have tested with my RF signal generator at 110MHz sinusoidal and it triggers the wave without issues and at 78mV RMS amplitude, around 30% down of what the generator is supplying. The bandwidth should be measured in sinewave, not squarewave, but you know this. I just mention it because some people believe that if a scope can not show a "perfect" square wave at 20MHz, then it is limited to around that "frequency", and this is plain wrong. A square wave is composed of a large series of sinusoidal waves, and when a scope manufacturer states that a bandwidth value is 100MHz, they are referring to a sinusoidal wave, not a square wave, and this has nothing to do with the brand of the scope.

It's very good for the price and that can always be put forth to justify missing features but while it does many things one wouldn't expect for the price, I know the lack of a single shot (and maybe, an external trigger input) would bug me after a while. Sometimes, you just want a quick look at a digital line, maybe to eliminate any analogue interactions (dwelling in the noise margin, slew-limited transitions, etc.) or need to actually read the initial bitstream on boot-up or whatever and having the scope already on the bench as one of the default instruments makes that a quick check function without resorting to logic analysers, etc. Thanks for your practical review.

@dalebertdurando1496 3 жыл бұрын

For square waves (and high frequencies) you need a 50 ohm termination at the scope input, otherwise, like you said, the coax becomes resonant and looks like ringing. btw, risetime should be 0.35 / freq response of the scope (and probe with the probe usually increasing total bandwidth). Also make sure you turn off the 20MHz BW limit.

They go up to the sepcified bandwidth no problems. Accuracy is not like your Tektronix, but for a cheap scope they work well. Even being cheap, you get your monies worth with these. There is are other versions in different bandwidths, and they seem to meet the specs. They are about half the price now compared to the price when this video was made 4 years ago

So no external Trigger Input option? What about a more complex signal, like a Video signal or a Serial data signal say 9600Bd? Can it trigger on some data lines out of an old computer. What a bout a AM or FM IF /RF signals. Can I trigger on a Video TV line. I think any scoop to day can handle a square wave, So what are the real limits. Even the simple Voltcraft 20MHz 2Ch analog scoop of 30yrs old has a trigger input . Also no X-Y option? SO if this has NO trigger input is a peace of expensive toy.

This tear down is hilarious, even in 2024. You're the only one with a tear down. I was wondering if I could add more RAM or memory or a EPROM chip or something. I guess not. How did it pass FCC inspection? Thanks for the zoom in on the board. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d8CYp9CG1LKvh4U.html

Nah, Dooooooiiiiiiiinnnnnngggg was a much better sound effect. I would assume that scope is non-repairable unless sent back to Owon. Nice. Have a great weekend Paul.

About the being-maried-stuff: It's better to have an electric guitar or other loud electrical device. She screams for you, instead of at you. And the laws of mother nature are always the same, every day. Your love for electronics will never be in vain. :)

Anyone else missing the old chunky giant oscilloscopes?

I've got a Tektronix 456b (I think) in a closet. It weighs about 60lbs.

That's what I'm talking about right there. Now everything piece of equipment feels like an empty shell that is designed so it makes repair/modification more difficult. While it may be okay for consumer products, it shouldn't be for a technician or engineer. At least for my taste, the actual trend is and feels awful, making products look portable even when they're not.
