Jaycar Maker Hub
This isn’t super high quality content, and is basically just advertising, but what the hell. I’m not sure how regularly they get new content, but today on Maker Hub:
Printed Circuit Board Manufacture
I found www.ldelectronics.com.au. Might try them out for PCB manufacture.
Silicon Chip
I think I’m gonna subscribe to Silicon Chip magazine. I’ve ordered the October issue in print format and the September issue in electronic format. Might get a 12 month print & digital subscription starting in January next year.
Rigol MSO5074 HDMI

I can’t get it to work on my bigger HDMI monitor though, not sure why. Maybe the cable is too long? Maybe the signal is too low resolution? I don’t really know enough about HDMI to guess at the cause.
// 2022-09-18 jj5 – UPDATE: according to this there’s a known issue with HDMI that’s fixed with a firmware upgrade. Might have to look into that.
Rigol DK-DS6000 Oscilloscope Demo Trainer Board
While watching TTT367 Embedded Systems and Rigol MSO5000 I learned of the Rigol DK-DS6000 Oscilloscope Demo Trainer Board which are for sale for US$231.
Constant current electronic load
Before I splash out the big bucks for a DL3021 (or similar) I might start with a much cheaper option (there is also a case available).
Rigol DL3021 Programmable DC Electronic Load
I want to get a programmable electronic load. There are a bunch of options from Rigol. I’m thinking maybe a DL3021, such as this one available from AliExpress for $742.58 + shipping. Should probably do some research and see what is available from other manufacturers.
YouTube channel: tomtektest
So I found tomtektest on YouTube. He has a series of videos on the Rigol MSO5000 (which is my scope).
