iMSO-204x

If you've ever wanted to recreate your oscilloscope screen, it's possible in Excel. This example regraphs both analog and digital waveforms. And this is how to do it: Step #1 First, log data. Then, email that data to a device that has Excel. The data log will be in *.csv file format. Step #2 Here's...

Oklahoma City, OK – September 18, 2017 - Today, Oscium is announcing iMSO-204x , a mixed signal oscilloscope with universal platform support (iOS, Android, PC, Mac). Oscium's oscilloscopes have traditionally worked with iOS only but with this new product we are adding Android, PC and Mac. Matt Lee...

Windmills, alternators, generators, motors all have to do with how magnets interact with copper. So understanding what magnets do to copper is important. It's important in design (material selection and space utilization) as well as in how to maximize performance (power output). In this video,...

DUT: RadioShack Digital Record/Replay Module In the setup pictured above, Oscium’s iMSO-204 digital oscilloscope measures two analog waveforms on Radio Shack’s digital recording module. The module, part number 276-1323, uses a single IC to record and playback up to 20 seconds of voice or other...

In this post to Oscium’s blog, readers get a look at the insides of a simple cell phone. There are a number of subsystems that bring cell phone users the basic functionality attributed to almost every cell phone these days. These functions include a dynamic digital display, microphones and speakers...

In the figure above, Oscium’s handheld oscilloscope measures the sine wave output from an Agilent 33250 Arbitrary Waveform Generator. It’s important to set the oscilloscope’s trigger threshold to an appropriate voltage threshold. This blog post examines what happens when the trigger level is either...

This blog series uses Oscium’s iMSO-104 handheld oscilloscope and a digital multi-meter to evaluate Enercell’s selectable output voltage power supply. This inexpensive, commercially available “wall wart” power supply is a terrific addition to any hobbyist’s arsenal of electronic gadgets. Follow...

Pictured above Oscium’s iMSO measures the electrical pulses at the output of a medical device frequently used for managing chronic pain. Modern technology has given pain management specialists an alternative to prescriptions or surgery for treating patients suffering from mild to severe chronic...

The circuit in the schematic below is an infrared transmitter. The infrared beam is transmitted in a nearly line-of-sight pattern to another device with an infrared receiver. The plotted waveforms are the output voltages of the two intermediate stages (purple and yellow) and the transmitter’s...

In the picture above, Oscium’s iMSO-104 oscilloscope is measuring the output waveform of an infrared receiver (IR Rx). The iPad and iMSO are functioning as the oscilloscope for measuring the receiver’s output signal as the relative alignment between transmitter and receiver varies. There are two...
