Over here you can see how to plug your Rigol Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer (RSA) into your Mixed Signal Oscilloscope (MSO).

Progress
Today is the first day I have used my signal generator, my scope, and a breadboarded circuit, at the same time. Used my multi-meter with its new cables too!
Thanks to my friend Raz for his help. <3
Frequency response
So I pumped a 1 kHz square wave into my DTL OR gate and observed the behaviour with my scope!
The square wave is in yellow, and the blue is the output signal.
You can see the output doesn’t drop back to zero quite as fast as the input.
You can see on the multi-meter to the right that the current draw is about 5.83 mA. That’s consistent with my earlier measurements given a duty cycle of 50%.
And you can see in the following photo that the frequency response of the circuit is rubbish. If you go much above about 10 kHz the output just stays “on”.
I joined the EEVBlog forum
So I signed up for an account on the EEVBlog form and made my first post.
Cardiac probe
For fun and learning I’d like to investigate making a probe which can measure my heartbeat via my scope.
OSC482 USB scope
I’m watching Oscilloscopes for beginners and it mentions the OSC482 USB scope. Think I should get me one of those to play with.
$60 PC Oscilloscope Review
This (surprisingly) on HN today: $60 PC Oscilloscope Review.
EEVblog #652 – Oscilloscope & Function Generator Termination Demo
Have just discovered EEVblog with this one: EEVblog #652 – Oscilloscope & Function Generator Termination Demo. Interesting stuff! Tip: always use a x10 probe on your scope.
