7GHz differential probe matches Rigol’s top-end Oscilloscopes
Rigol has created a 7GHz differential probe to go with the 5GHz DS70000 oscilloscopes that it announced at the beginning of the year. Called PVA8000, the probe also comes in a 3.5GHz variant, and there are single-ended types. Inside is the same ‘Phoenix’ ASIC that the company...

Vicente Jiménez has published a new project. It's a circuit probe that gives an indication when a node is floating or driven logic high or logic low and can also be used as a continuity tester. He writes: Sometimes you need to check one circuit and test some of its nodes. Usually a...
