TechXchange

Oscilloscope Vendors and Distributors

Oct. 11, 2024

Looking to buy an oscilloscope? Here are some places to look.

Choosing an oscilloscope or other test equipment is more than picking one that has the bandwidth for a particular application especially these days where oscilloscopes can provide more than just traces of signals. They can be programmable. They can analyze signals and then there is the plethora of probes, storage and triggering options available. There are also a lot of vendors and distributors where you can obtain this equipment.

This TechXchange includes articles that examine seletion issues as well as lists of vendors and distributors to consider. Check out the parent TechXchange, Engineer's Guide Oscilloscope Techniques, for articles and videos on the use and operation of oscilloscopes.

Below you will find some videos on things to consider when selecting an oscilloscope.
