The Digilent Waveforms Software Interface Using a sound card as the hardware interface with Waveforms puts a simple - yet powerful - scope in your hands for free. I think the free scope control software, Waveforms, is the simplest to use, most feature-rich pro-level software of any of the available options. However, I use the Digilent Analog Discovery 2 Scope (described in this article) in all my hobby activities and in the workshops I teach at Tinkermill - our hackerspace in Longmont, CO. Best of all, it’s free! When you graduate from this simple scope, you can purchase a more powerful scope using the exact same user interface.įull disclosure: I love scopes so much, 10 years ago, I joined Teledyne LeCroy - the third largest scope manufacturer in the world behind Tektronix and Keysight. In this article, I’ll show how you can get started with a simple-to-use scope you probably already have. It’s my go-to measurement instrument in every electronics project I work on, helping me debug and fine-tune hardware and software projects. I’ve been using an oscilloscope for almost 50 years.
