When building electronic systems, it can be challenging to measure some of the parameters in the system. Power is one area, especially low-power, battery-driven designs, where you're trying to extend battery life. Then there is your oscilloscope - how far can you rely upon the standard probes? When does it make sense to source better probes, how are they better, and how are they used? Join Stuart Cording, The Electronics Reporter, as he gets insights from Werner Johansson of Qoitech and CS Wong of Rohde & Schwarz on these measurement challenges.

0:00 - Intro to show #21.
3:53 - Werner Johansson of Qoitech explains what an SMU (source measurement unit) is, and how their Otii Arc and Ace help when developing low-power, battery-operated applications.
28:10 - Giveaway - Cytron Maker Pi RP2040.
29:12 - CS Wong of Rohde & Schwarz explains how far you can go with the passive probes that are delivered with your oscilloscope, and what the various probe upgrades (differential, active, etc.) offer.
50:44 - My guests answer some audience questions on measuring signals, providing insights from their years of experience in industry.
1:08:43 - Show wrap-up!
