Abstract :
The increasing speeds of modern circuitry, transistor-transistor logic, emitter-coupled logic etc., as well as the widespread use of digital circuitry, indicate a need for highly sophisticated oscilloscopes. Adequate bandwidths and risetimes are necessary to give an accurate reproduction of what is happening in a circuit. However, it is essential if costs are to be cut that the prospective purchaser works out exactly what he wants in the way of bandwidth, risetime, display, triggering and special facilities. Equally important, but not always considered in relation to performance and therefore to cost effectiveness, are factors such as control layout, weight, volume and serviceability
