Rigol's New DHO800 Oscilloscope unbox & teardown

[Fungus]

If you download the Analog Discovery software you can use it for free on your PC sound card.

I haven't tried it but I'm fairly sure it will do Bode plots up to whatever frequency your sound card supports.

(eg. 192kHz sample rate)

I had both DHO800 and SDS800X HD

While we're here, how do the supplied probes compare?

I have had a Lite-On PSU, as it was shipped with DHO924S. Not very best PSU, but for some reasons I decided to do Riso (insulation tester) measurements between PE and output ground. Normal ohm meter showed 1 MΩ. 500 V test gave same result. 1 kV ended with fail - 1 MΩ become 30 kΩ.

If something is powered from grid, at least in Europe, I expect this to handle 2 kV surge without any problem. Anyway, there are some photos from teardown and small reverse engineering of PE-GND path.

Both capacitors are 100 nF, but second one became more like a resistor with value depending on a moon phase.

Hi, guys!

Could you read my topic & reply to my question about 802/812?

Very few people but 2 channel models. It's possible nobody here has one.

Less than £299 including delivery and VAT from Banggood right now (DHO804).

I wanted a portable scope.. really wanted to buy another Siglent but no HDMI and no powerbank option. So a DHO804 it is!

It’s impossible that nobody here owns a two-channel DSO.

Hello, I have already answered you in the thread you asked about. My conclusion is that activating the trigger does not influence the maximum sampling frequency, only activating the two channels divides that factor in half. Greetings

This is very likely, but I'm not going to garantee it because I don't own one.

Every scope can be modified (another PSU) or powered from a battery->AC inverter.

Yeah, but the Rigol works off a pocket-sized phone charger.

You think that other scopes can't be modified to do the same thing?

Sure, but you don't have to modify the Rigol.

Sure, but you don't have to modify the Rigol.

Unless you require a Line trigger.

Unless you require a Line trigger.

Umm -- if you have line voltage around to trigger on, you might as well use it to power the scope?
