Oscilloscopes
Oscilloscopes are the basic measuring instruments used in electronics. They are known to all electronic engineers, both beginners and already experienced amateurs and professionals. The oscilloscope is used to observe deformed electrical waveforms and is also used to measure various parameters that relate to these waveforms. Nowadays digital oscilloscopes are used, the prototype of which was an analogue oscilloscope. They differ not only in the way and mechanism of operation, but also in the construction and precision of measurements. Digital oscilloscopes have a built-in sample memory and are used not only to measure periodic signals but also to observe random events, sometimes single pulses. A well-fitting oscilloscope enables the removal of the dynamic and static characteristics of electronic instruments. Moreover, with its help we can measure their phase shift.

Oscilloscopes - FAQ
Choose an oscilloscope that has enough bandwidth to capture the highest frequency signals. Remember the 5x rule - it's a good idea to choose an oscilloscope that, along with the probe, offers at least 5x the maximum signal bandwidth to get better measurements with fewer errors.
Oscilloscopes are used in the sciences, medicine, engineering, automotive and telecommunications industries. These are general-purpose instruments that are used for electronic equipment maintenance and laboratory work.
An oscilloscope is a basic measuring device for observing the shape and measuring parameters of variable signals. Its task is to measure periodic signals, random events and short-term impulses. We will receive the values in the form of samples.
Oscilloscopes can be divided into digital, PC (oscilloscope attachments working with a computer) and portable types. They are mainly characterized by frequency (in MHz or GHz), sampling (in MS/s or GS/s), number of channels (1, 2, 4) and possible additional functions.
The father of the oscilloscope is the German physicist Karl Ferdinand Braun. The invention dates back to 1897. The French engineer and physicist André-Eugène Blondel is the inventor of the electromechanical oscillograph and the system of photometric units of measurement. German engineer Jonathan Zenneck also contributed to the technology by examining the operation of radio circuits.
The cheapest oscilloscope in the Botland range, the Hantek 6022BE 20MHz two-channel digital oscilloscope , costs only a few hundred zlotys. In the same category you will also find Siglent oscilloscopes in the price range from approximately PLN 1,500 to over PLN 2,000.
