Some of the questions & comments:
What did it cost? (everything...)
S K on YouTube: How long does it take to engineer something like this? With custom ASICs all over the place and what not…
Glitch on YouTube: Can you make a budget version of it for $99?
Steve Sousa on YouTube: But how do you test the test instrument?? It's already so massively difficult to make this, how can you measure and qualify it's gain, linearity etc?
TechNiqueBeatz on YouTube: About halfway through the video now.. what would the practical application(s) of an oscilloscope like this be?
Alberto Vaudagna on YouTube: Do you know what happen to the data after the dsp? It go to the CPU motherboard and processed by the CPU or the data is overlayed on the screen and the gui is runner's by the CPU?
How does a piece of equipment like that get delivered? I just don't think UPS or Fedex is going to cut it for million+ dollar prototype. It would be nice to see some higher magnification views of the front end.
Ulrich Frank:mNice sturdy-looking handles at the side of the instrument - to hold on to and keep you steady when you hear the price...
SAI Peregrinus: That price! It costs less than half the price of a condo in Brooklyn, NY! (Search on Zillow, sort by price high to low. Pg 20 has a few for $2.7M, several of which are 1 bedroom...)
RoGeorgeRoGeorge: Wow, speechless!
R Bhalakiya: THIS IS ALL VOODOO MAGIC
Maic Salazar Diagnostics: This is majestic!!
Sean Bosse: Holy poop. Bet it was hard keeping this quiet until the release.
jonka1: Looking at the front end it looks as if the clock signal paths are of different lengths. How is phase dealt with? Is it in this module or later in software?
cims: The Bugatti Veyron of scopes with a price to match, lol
One scope to rule them all...wow! Keyesight drops the proverbial mic with this one
Mike Oliver: That is a truly beautiful piece of equipment. It is more of a piece of art work than any other equipment I have ever seen.
Gyro on EEVBlog: It's certainly a step change in just how bad a bad day at the office could really get!
TiN: I have another question, regarding the input. Are there any scopes that have waveguide input port, instead of very pricey precision 1.0mm/etc connectors?
Or in this target scope field, that's not important as much, since owner would connect the input cable and never disconnect? Don't see those to last many cable swaps in field, even 2.4mm is quite fragile.
User on EEVBlog: According to the specs, It looks like the 2 channel version he looked at "only" requires 1370 VA and can run off 120V. The 4 channel version only works off 200-240V
The really interesting question: how do they calibrate that calibration probe.
They have to characterize the imperfections in it's output to a significantly better accuracy than this scope can measure. Unless there's something new under the sun in calibration methodology?
Mikes Electric Stuff @mikelectricstuf: Can I get it in beige?
Yaghiyah @yaghiyah: Does it support Zone Triggering?
User on Twitter:
It’ll be a couple paychecks before I’m in the market, but I’d really be interested in some detail on the probes and signal acquisition techniques. Are folks just dropping a coax connector on the PCB as a test point? The test setup alone has to be a science in itself.
I’d also be interested in knowing if the visiting aliens that you guys mugged to get this scope design are alive and being well cared for.
Hi Daniel, just out of curiosity and within any limits of NDAs, can you go into how the design process goes for one of these bleeding-edge instruments? Mostly curious how much of the physical design, like the channels in the hybrid, are designed by a human versus designed parametrically and synthesized
