DEVELOPING OF A LOW COST OSCILLOSCOPE

Oscilloscope is the eye of an electronics engineer. However, oscilloscopes in the market cost at least 100s of dollars. Those with logic analyzer (digital) functionality would cost even more. For most hobbyists, this will be a barrier to tinkering with electronics. Also, in developing countries, oscilloscopes are out of the reach of many. Hence, there is a need for low cost (frugal) oscilloscopes, which while lacking the functionalities of high end ones, might still be good enough or many usual tasks. This project is aimed to developed a sub-100 dollar oscilloscope, leveraging on the capabilities of low cost, high-performance microcontrollers available in the market.
