Hello group! This is my first post on this forum (same username on the IAM/KLOV forums) and it is in regards to the 6022BE.
Background info:
- I test/repair early 80's arcade PCB's (and CRT monitors) for myself and to earn a little hobby $$$
- Have a venerable Tektronics 464A 100MHz scope.
- technical training in Electrician work, but got a solid electronics experience along the way (thank you Navy)
- consider myself to be fairly competent, but often prove myself wrong
- looking for something a bit more "modern", but maybe not. I figured at $66, what the heck.
- Already have one of the Saelae 16ch devices, but wouldn't rule out getting the 6022BL.
Questions for those who have used the 6022BE: Would this digital scope be adequate for troubleshooting early arcade PCB's (Pacman, Defender, Tron, etc...)? Maximum clock freq I would encounter is probably 16MHz, and that is usually stepped way down buy the time the initial dividers are done with it. Most of these systems are running a 6809, 6502 or Z80 at a max of 6Mhz. Don't think I will be using for any 68000 based systems. Might want to use in X-Y mode for troubleshooting vector based games. Is the sampling rate adequate for this application?
Thanks in advance for any replies!
