The ultimate debugging tool for electronics, this oscilloscope will turn you into a "Circuit Whisperer". You will be able to peer into the workings of your circuits to better understand them. Difficult problems will suddenly become trivial. Adafruit tried many beginner oscilloscopes and found this one to be a perfect balance of price and function: it's perfect as a 'first scope' or as a hacker-space resource to share. To learn about how to use oscilloscopes, we suggest reading Tektronix's great "XYZs of Oscilloscopes" and the other great Tek documents that cover everything you need to know!

Bonus extras! Adafruit include an awesome sew/iron-on embroidered "Oscilloscope Skill Badge" and vinyl sticker!

1 Giga-sample per second Analog/Digital Converter - 1000 MSa/s real-time sample rate for one channel or 500 MS/s for two channels gives you the most detail even at high frequency signals
50 MHz software bandwidth (you can view up to 50 MHz digital/analog signals clearly)
5.7" Full color LCD display
Digital storage with 16 Kpoints memory depth, 1Mpoints for long memory
Trigger via Edge, Pulse Width, Video, Slope, Alternate, Pattern and Duration
20 types of wave parameter measurements built in: Vmax, Vmin, Vpp, Vtop, Vbase, Vamplitude, Vaverage, Vrms, Overshoot, Preshoot, Period, Freq, Rise time, Fall time, + Width, - Width, + Duty, - Duty, Delay falling, Delay Rising, Phase falling, Phase Rising
Auto trigger/display is great for beginners
Math and FFT functions
