Regarding the JYETECH oscilloscope, I have bought a few of them, and I am very happy with it. Although it is not a high end scope, it is fun to play with it. And besides, you can use it as a development board, reprogramming the AVR to do other things. A template file is include for easy development!

Hi, i am designing Digital oscilloscope using Spartan3 + AIO1 as ADC. I am not sure how to measure the freq and voltage, so i can display it on the VGA output. Can anyone advise please.
Doe anyone have some code for the soudez-oscilloscope (http://www.soudez.be/joomla/content/view/12/27/lang,en/). I think this is a very intereting project, but I can't find the code anywhere...
Yes, the Microchip contests started a year ago. The SD Card is not implemented yet but it will be used to store waveforms, custom applications, formulas, etc...
You can start reading this thread from page one, that is what I did. Some years ago forum member monnoliv made a nice design. You can read all about it on his website:

I started my own oscilloscope as too, and last week I received my PCB's for the analog front-end. This front-end is heavily based on the design of monnoliv. Here is a preview of what the final product should look like.
Thanks!! 4 the help...... I have started the project and i am having problem in implementing the triggering mechanism ...can u plz tell me smthing about
triggering and how u incorpoated it in your design
I haven't implemented anything yet. I just made some hardware stuff. But what I would imagine is that the samples come in in a sort of FIFO way. And when you get a trigger, you will use that point as the middle of you sample data set.
What kind of problems did you encounter, and what does your hardware setup look like?
We have not worked on the hardware part ..... we have implemented memory and triggering mechanism in our design .... we are not sure about our hardware part yet ....... we are right now working on designing the modules for FPGA.......

Wireless Oscilloscope using Nokia 6120c,
National Semiconductor LMX9838 Bluetooth module and Zilog Z8F0822 mcu.
*currently migrating (both code and hardware) from zilog mcu to dsPIC33F DSC, for faster ADC sampling.
in the previous hardware, the MCU (zilog z8f0822) I used is only capable of up to around 70ksps..
right now I'm still building the improve circuit using a dsPIC33F dsc (instead of an mcu),
which has ADCs' capable pf up to 2Msps (x2 channels)..
hopefully it will give a better resolution..
also, with regards to bandwith, the amplifier part of circuit is also limited by the OpAmp used.. (I'm only using 3MHz bandwidth opamp )
I suppose if you can also use a bluetooth-capable notebook in place of the phone?
that would be sweet: the mcu will just be a dedicated adc front-end and the notebook taking care of the display / analytics. a very powerful combination in my view.
Added after 8 minutes:
to take yus's idea in another direction: wouldn't it be easier to just take the front end, use the mcu to drive a usb to communicate with the host computer? the usb also supplies power to the front-end.
that shouldn't be too difficult, right? any suggestions?
