Great scope at a great price!

I recently purchased the Rigol DS1054Z 4-channel oscilloscope and I have to say, it has been a game-changer for my electronic projects. As someone who is passionate about electronics, I was looking for a scope that would offer me the performance I need at an affordable price, and the DS1054Z has exceeded my expectations. First off, the setup was incredibly easy, and the user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate. The scope has a large, clear screen that displays waveforms beautifully and with great detail. The four channels provide plenty of flexibility to view multiple signals simultaneously, and the sampling rate is high enough to capture even the fastest signals. I also love the fact that this scope has built-in waveform measurements and math functions, which saves me time and helps me make more accurate measurements. Additionally, the advanced trigger modes are incredibly useful, allowing me to capture and analyze signals that other scopes might miss. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase of the Rigol DS1054Z. It has all the features I need to tackle even the most challenging electronic projects, and at a price point that makes it accessible to hobbyists and professionals alike. I highly recommend this scope to anyone who is serious about electronics and looking for a reliable and high-performing oscilloscope.

Great hobbyist scope for the money

4.0

The Rigol DS1054Z is simply an excellent scope for the hobbyist on a hobbyist budget. I've put this scope to good use so far, analyzing I2C, SPI, and a switch bounce issue on an old tube guitar amp. Yes, this scope is a bit older now and there are a couple of hot competitors out there (GW Instek GDS1054B and Siglent SDS1104X-U). To compete with these, the Rigol now comes with the higher end features, like 100MHz bandwidth, enabled, so it still holds its own and I am very happy with my purchase. I've read some complaints about the relay clicking noise and fan noise. All of these scopes have fan noise. You're going to hear it, but if you're used to working in an electrical lab environment, it's nothing out of the ordinary. If you're sitting at home in a quiet room with nothing else going on then, yes, it's the loudest thing in the room. My own particular gripes about the unit are (1) there's no real web interface to speak of, and the remote operation software is not user friendly and slow, and (2) the response to the controls is just a bit laggy but not terribly so. Given the age of this design compared to the newer competitors I'm not surprised. But due to these, I give it a 4 rather than 5 rating. I'm secretly hoping they'll improve the remote access with a software update, but not holding my breath, and it isn't a key feature for me. Still... great quality scope!

Very nice lab supply for the serious hobbyins

5.0

Pros of this power supply: - Clear and easy to read display - The three outputs are very convenient for my typical use of bipolar rails for opamps/etc and a 5v or 3.3v rail for microcontrollers. - The combination of rotary encoder and circular number pad makes editing parameters pretty easy. Cons: - Channel 2 and 3 share a common terminal, not a huge deal. - I would prefer a number pad with a square layout, but it doesn't take long to get used to. - The fan is a little noisy, but this is to be expected. Overall: I like it, other top contenders were a GW-Instek unit with potentiometers instead of encoders/number pad, and a Siglent unit. The Rigol was a little more expensive than either of these, but I'm happy with this choice.

Very capable scope

5.0

This scope is very capable, and moreso because it comes loaded with measurement tools thanks to the unlocked extra software straight from TEquipment. Quality build throughout. I'm older so I normally use reading glasses, and they do help with this instrument to read some of the smaller text (some of the on-screen text can be enlarged via settings). Some reviews speak to the fan being noticeable, but really, I did not think it was noisy at all - just a light rushing fan sound like you'd expect. Being lazy, I uses Auto a lot, which is a nice feature. Although feature packed, it will still make a good scope for the beginner to learn on - everything is there. For me, I am learning a lot in the world of digital scopes since I come from using older analog scopes. For new users, I recommend the Quick Start it's a great way to walk-through the buttons and commonly used features features.

Love this Meter - Rigol DM3058E

5.0

I was looking for an upgrade bench meter that had 5 1/2 digits. I have other Rigol instruments and have been very happy with them, Oscope, PSU, Sig Gen... This meter does not disappoint! I love the 4 wire resistance measurement. I threw it on my decade resistance box and was impressed with the accuracy. The only real drawback was the backlit screen. It is easy to invert the white background and black numbers, but it was not keeping the setting when shut down. I did finally figure it out, trying several combinations of settings/saving repeating. The other thing that I find annoying is that I have to push the power button on the front after I power up my bench. Not a big deal, just annoying. The overall feel, look and operation is alien to my other Rigol instruments, but I do really like it. It is my new "go-to" meter.

Compared to a 4 channel Instek

4.0

Getting my new Rigol with options bundled included I was eager to see the options. With the usual new equipment jitters, I was pleased to see they were all installed and I didn't have to do any downloading, etc. I wanted to see how the Rigol stacked up. From a Youtube review I knew the blue and green traces were similar. They are. The green I would say is teal but practically, light blue. However the 2 "blues" are distinguishable so not a problem. The pink I call purple. Also from a review it was known the font sizes of letters are small. They are. Some are quite small such as measurement data. It may be a problem. Not so good, I like the looks seeing an actual unit rather than pictures. From pictures I had thought it had a poor style to the design. Sharing a common control for vertical didn't pose much of a problem. Though at times switching trigger and back to which vertical channel I wanted did seem to be a lot of fiddling. A few cons. The select switch slips a lot making for a wrong selection. I talked to a guy at Rigol and he says he gets that a lot. He says muscle memory comes into play. I suppose. Also it's a hard press. Mechanically I wonder how long that switch will hold up. In acquisition the manual led me to believe I had a choice other than sin(x)/x. Apparently not, talking to Rigol. But the manual is for the 1000 series. Maybe so on other scopes. The screen appears smaller with the left menu. For holdoff ranging my Instek is better. I'm spoiled. The holdout is good though. For pros I like having hi res. I can see differences using it. While maybe old hat nowadays I think it's a great feature to have. Also Pattern triggering is potentially very useful. There are several other triggers I didn't have. Also in Math the option of being able to perform logical operations is exciting. In general usage the triggering is fine as is using different memory depths. While writing a review not a comparison, I say my Instek is the better performer for ease of use and functionality and the Rigol has more versatility. Right now, being a new scope for me, the Rigol is my main interest.

Unbelievable scope for the price

5.0

I’m thrilled with this scope, after three weeks of ownership. I’m using far more of the advanced features than I anticipated. In this price range, I hadn’t been even thinking of targeting needs like RS232 decoding and triggering, SPI, I2C etc. But being able to cross reference serial comms from my Arduino back to the PC with what’s going on with the downstream electronics has been amazing. I’ve also been using the third and fourth inputs on the scope to give programmatic triggering of the scope from my Arduino - which helped me track down a poor clock signal in a project I was building. The product builds overall feels very high quality. Very solid, reasonably heavy. Probably the only negative is that the entire width of the screen can’t be used to see the signal, but that’s a pretty minor concern, the screen is already quite wide. Overall, this is a 10/10 product

Unbelievable hobby scope: I've barely tapped the capabilities of the unit, but it does all the basic things you would expect of an oscilloscope effortlessly and very well. The value is incredible. I am enticed by some of the features on the higher end scopes, but for as infrequently as I would use them, this is a sweet spot on a price/performance curve and an absolute bargain. Considering the only reason I am likely to use 4-channels is because they are there, the higher bandwidth of the DS1202Z-E might have been a better choice in the long run, but I don't know how I could have gone wrong with either.

This is a nice unit, but pricey. Intuitive layout, but still a bit clunky with the circular input. They should have just given it a normal keypad layout. I doubt it was designed by EEs - we don't want eye candy, just easy-to-use and navigate. My unit has the slightest bit of drift prior to warming up, but stabilizes nicely afterward. Plenty accurate and stabile for the home/amateur setup. Very nice that they incorporated presets for regularly used settings. Build quality seems very solid.

Physically the unit is quite long but workable. The fan noise is louder than I would like but not whiny like other test equipment that I have so it's not as annoying.

Good enough to buy two

5.0

I was happy enough with this that I eventually bought two of them in total. It's just a solid lab power supply with three programmable outputs. Not a lot of excitement, which is what you'd want in a power supply. The user interface is decent although many complain about the encoder wheel to set values. It could definitely be more streamlined, but you get used to it. The only part of the UI that I found almost unusable was the timer functionality, where you can set it to step through different voltage and current limits. It may have improved in later firmware revisions, but it was very unclear where the sequence was supposed to stop, and using the prefab templates seemed to not work at all. However, most people will probably never use this functionality, or will automate it externally with LXI etc.

It's not a LeCroy, but this is an outstanding value in a scope! At the current price, especially with the included software bundle, there is probably nothing else on the market which can compare.

The response time is fine for hobby work but would be a little slow if I were in a big hurry on a commercial bench. The included manual is really basic, so if you have questions be prepared to hunt around online for answers. My only real complaint is the somewhat touchy selector knob.

Excelent Power supply with built in turbine

I got this power supply over a year ago and it is a solid performer on my workbench. It's used for hobby applications and I never had issues with it. I mainly use it from the front panel but tested some simple setups in LabVIEW in combination with the DM3068 DMM and a DS2302A scope...no issues. It took a little while to get used to it but now I really like the user interface. The huge complaint is the build in fighter jet turbine. I thought the DS2302A scope is loud, after I installed this power supply I learned the scope is whisper silent. I don't know how you can design bench equipment that is designed to sit in front of the user which is so noisy. Yes it's not a pricy power supply but the efforts to minimize the noise aren't too pricy either. My unit is out of warranty now and I will definitely look into alternative fans that reduce the nose without loosing air flow. Other than the noise complaint this is a very nice power supply for the price.

While 50 MHz has its limits in the digital you can still get some basic debugging done. This scope works as well (and sometimes better) than the older analog CRT scopes ire[aces. The measurement capabilities make things go faster. Well worth the price. When I need a higher BW scope or a large logic analyzer renting them still works well.

Great tool for the money!

I just retired so now electronics is my hobby and not a profession. I'm pretty old school so I'm comparing this scope to my trusty Tektronix 465 100 Mhz scope. Happily, the Rigol is very easy to use right out of the box and all of the common essential functions are still accessed through knobs and buttons. There are a bunch of menu driven options - not my favorite way to set up gear - but even those are easy to navigate. I've heard complaints about all modern digital scopes crashing (anything that's software driven will crash after all) but I haven't experienced any problems with mine. I sure don't need all 4 channels all the time but how can you go wrong at this price? Most of my applications are audio (I build analog synthesizers) so 50Mhz is more than enough bandwidth for what I do. This is my third purchase from TEquipment and as always it has been a great experience. If you only need 50Mhz of bandwidth, you can't go wrong with this scope.

Rigol DS1054Z Digital Oscilloscope 50 Mhz DSO 4 Ch

5.0

I just received this oscilloscope about 2 weeks ago; I know that this just an entry level oscilloscope but it has a lot going for it and the price is great. I have some analog scopes but no digital. What I like the vertical and horizontal buttons on the side with lots of options. I have heard some say the screen is a little small. But compared to the size of the unit it a good size and I have to ware reading glasses. The screen is easy to read. Then there is a real nice save or print button. XY mode can have a split screen or with a push of a button YT mode for wave sine. Lots of measurements can be seen on the screen with just a push of a button. There is a lot more and the price you just can't beat it. I am currently troubleshooting a TV with it and found 5 defective electrolytic capacitors with this DS1054Z oscilloscope. I do not have a lot of money nor the need a high price oscilloscope. This one is just great for me.

This is a very solid and nice PS. I was a bit surprised how heavy and large it actually is. There is one complain which is the loud fan. There are some mods out there to replace the fan with a quiet one but it's not as straight forward as you might think since you have to make sure to match the current of the original fan and of cause you will void the warranty. So, please Rigol spend $8 for a quiet fan - well the fan of my Rigol DS1052 is even louder ;-). Anyway, I highly recommend to watch the EEVblog reviews on the PS as it gives you a lot of great info.

Worth the price

5.0

This is a very usable and affordable scope. The user interface is very intuitive and is easy to pick up, and is for the most part reasonably responsive (not lightning quick, but usable). It does all the basic things I expect in an oscilloscope right, and I would highly recommend it. I have not tried using the PC interface yet or played around much with the serial decode options. Pros: 1. I really like the deep memory and 4 channels. For what I do this is more useful than very high bandwidth/sample rate. 2. The UI for basic things is fully functional; fine/coarse resolution adjustments, centering, and cursors. The single set of vertical control knobs took a little adjusting to, but I wouldn't consider this detrimental. This is by far the biggest pro for me. 3. The base seems reasonably solid, and I don't have any issues pushing buttons. 4. While I don't use the advanced features that often, it's nice that they're there for when I do need them. Cons: 1. The math function is main exception to being "reasonably responsive" I've noticed so far. It just takes more time for it to update compared to everything else. 2. I don't know how usable the FFT feature is. It does seem to allow you to use the full memory* or just the on-screen display data, but I have noticed a few quirks: - When I have a really large time base, it doesn't let you use the full memory anymore (seems > 100ms/div is the limit?) - You can't display only the fft; you either get ~2/3 a screen of the fft, or the fft is layered underneath whatever channel on the full screen - You can only have a linear frequency axis - There are some strange limits on the frequency axis scale. It makes probing "low frequency" modes nearly impossible (low as in few kHz). For example, I couldn't even get a nice fft of the built-in 1kHz probe test signal. 3. Boot time is longer than I'm used to, but I've also mostly only played with old DSO's and analog scopes, so perhaps this is something associated with modern feature-full scopes? In any case, it's not too much of a burden since all I have to do is turn it on and leave it on at the start of the day when I want to use it. 4. While adding measurements is super easy, I have not really found any good way to remove them (there's some obscure method by going through the measurements menu). With statistics off the measurements don't take up much screen real estate, but it would be nice if the left menu buttons used for turning measurements on would instead toggle them on/off. I would consider these all minor issues for me since from past experience I very rarely use the math functions, and I have a PC accessible right next to my scope so I can do proper Fourier analysis by exporting the data.

This scope includes many features, which are very useful. Also, the free software makes it greater, and it worth the price. The four channels with four different colors make it easy to use. Many math operations including an FFT is really nice. Its pretty easy to get the hang of the scope pretty fast. After a one day, I had most of it down, but there are still a few options buried in menus that I seem to keep forgetting where they are and have to look it up. It was a little confusing that photo #5 on this site for the DS1054Z shows the back of the scope with 2 sources, that don't actually come with the DS1054Z, only a higher more expensive model. On that same note, neither Tequipment nor Rigol actually give you a full list of all features for this specific scope or any other, but instead, the features are lumped in with the entire DS1000z series, so that you don't know for sure what you are really getting. There should be a complete list of all features (ie. all of the Math functions) for each scope of this series either on this site of Rigol. If they are all the same then have one list, and at least say what's different about each scope. I also really liked the ability to put the entire screen onto my PC screen and control most of the functions with the included USB and the free software. But, its a little cumbersome getting all the software because of the hoops you have to jump through before you get it all loaded and working, specifically the surprising requirement of IVI, (Interchangeable Virtual Instrumentation), a set of standards for test and measurement instrument drivers. Even though it was all free it was a lot to go through to get it all running. In the end, Fast shipping, and easy to contact both Tequipment and Rigol technical help was a plus. I recommend this product.

Good value for money

4.0

I am mostly Audio gear and I have been looking for a scope since my old '50s/60s era Tektronic scope failed to fire up. Dave Jones at EEVblog did a good job of reviewing this scope and I must agree for the price it is good value for money. The day after I bought this scope, I received notice that I had won an equipment auction for 2 more scopes (the notice was delayed otherwise I would not have purchased the Rigol DS1054Z at 50 MHZ) So now I have a Tektronics TDS420A (200 MHZ) and a LeCroy 9314M (400 MHZ) to compare against. All 3 machines are 4 channel. Both the Tek and LeCroy came well outfitted with software (they came from the closed Boeing factory I used to work at, Aerospace does not skimp on options :P ) and speed of the machines aside, the make good marks to compare against though both are digital front ends with CRT displays. I am an old fart and I tend to prefer the weight and solid feel of the old gear. The Rigol was purchased under the bundle program but when I entered the codes to activate the software my finger slipped an I entered the wrong SER# by one number. I contacted Rigol and customer service told me to check the installed options, everything should be turned on. I checked and it already had everything turned on. This was from the factory so is it now standard for everything to be on? IDK but it is nice. The machine appeared to be new in the box and not a return from another customer. The Rigol menu structure is easy to use and aside from a few odd choices for button names vs what they do, it is pretty natural to use. The probes seem a bit light but when you consider that the scope is 50 MHZ they are good enough to not need any upgrades right away. The Rigol does feel light and built to a budget but remember I am used to 20# to 30# machines intended for commercial industrial use in the '90s and cost many thousands of $ at the time, .... so there is that LOL. If I had to go on location for a call, I would pick up the Rigol, it just is a lot easier to take with you. I am having a hard time adjusting to the digital display and I do prefer the CRT displays of the other units even when you consider they are monochrome VS the color display on the Rigol. I do miss the auto detect for probes on the Rigol but as long as you remember to set 1 or X10 in the software, it isn't a big deal. Is the Rigol the Be all, End all perfect machine for everyone? Well no, and no machine at any price is. I would have given it 4.5 stars but that was not a choice so I gave it 4.

Powerful, but Complicated Interface hampers beginn

4.0

This is my first foray into a hobbyist oscilloscope, and I purchased the Rigol DS1054Z after seeing many online reviews and videos. A book that recommended the equipment for a hobbyist Electronics Workshop made this the first major purchase for me (after a new digital multimeter) and I was quite excited when it arrived. My first use was to measure the output of an Arduino Uno that I had programmed to use pulse width modulation to control LED light strips. I had to poke and twist for quite some time to get the display that I wanted and I think my combined time reading and watching usage videos exceeded a semester of college coursework. Well, I'm only partially serious about that, but I'm not sure I know the exact steps that I did to make it work. Later, a friend came to my workshop to measure a circuit board he had designed and manufactured and neither of us could get this oscilloscope to display what we needed to display. So, our conclusion is it isn't very intuitive on how to use this. That said, I've been continuing to read and watch videos with tips and techniques and I am making progress. After adding the DG1022Z I now have a way of using a known good signal to set things up and I'm hoping this launching me on my way. Again, I'm a beginner not an experienced user and what I lack in skill I make up for in interest so I'm sure these two Rigol products will serve me well once I have them figured out.

Feature Packed

5.0

The DS1054 is a powerful instrument. The 50 MHz bandwidth is a serious limitation for some folks; a money saver for others. Expanding bandwidth is costly, but there are examples of this type scope for higher bandwidths. There are a lot of features packed in this $350 scope. You can save set-ups on a thumb drive as well as high definition screen shots. A peek at the waveform spectrum can be attained using the resident FFT. It should be noted that sweep frequency has considerable effect on this display. The vertical and horizontal menus provide for a variety of waveform data including pulse width and amplitude etc. There is a self calibrate function and the 4 probes provide frequency calibration for the 10X mode using the scopes cal signal.

Using software downloaded from Rigol’s site you can marry the scope with your laptop (USB) for presentations etc. When operating under Windows 7 the latest version of ultra sigma and ultra scope need to be used. I made the mistake of downloading an earlier version and experienced some difficulty in removing registry remnants of National Instruments features which prevented the scope from being recognized.

In the problems solved category, I experienced input bleed over between inputs as well as mysterious waveform displays. The Tequipment folks offered to return it and also provided a support number at Rigol. So I called Rigol to see if there was a simple solution. The Rigol tech suggested restoring factory defaults using a unique key press during booting. It worked; been flawless since.

There should be a complete list of all features (ie. all of the Math functions) for each scope of this series either on this site of Rigol. If they are all the same then have one list, and at least say what's different about each scope. I also really liked the ability to put the entire screen onto my PC screen and control most of the functions with the included USB and the free software. But, its a little cumbersome getting all the software because of the hoops you have to jump through before you get it all loaded and working, specifically the surprising requirement of IVI, (Interchangeable Virtual Instrumentation), a set of standards for test and measurement instrument drivers. Even though it was all free it was a lot to go through to get it all running. In the end, Fast shipping, and easy to contact both Tequipment and Rigol technical help was a plus. I recommend this product.

It's the most popular for a reason

As much as I love the aesthetics of my old 7000 series Tek scope, the thing really is a boat anchor. I needed something made in this century. In many ways, a scope is a scope. All the basics are the same whether it's fiddly analog knobs and switches, or digital menus. There's very little I can do on the 1054 that I couldn't do on my 40 year old behemoth, but the modern technology makes it all approximately 1.00x10^6 times easier. Calling this a hobbyist unit just doesn't do it justice.

This is a great buy for the money. It is an even better buy if you get it with the free software bundle. There are so many features to this scope that it may take me a week to find them all. Having owned and operated oscilloscopes for the last 49 years, I wanted something that would not break the bank, yet give me plenty features. Sometimes you just want to share a waveform that you have captured. This scope allows connectivity to a PC via Ethernet, USB or even to a USB drive. Yes there are limitations to this scope but for this price point, you won't get any complaints from me.

Rigol Digital Scope

5.0

I recently retired from an aerospace communications career and I'm able to now spend more time with my hobby as a HAM. One of the things I missed was the 4 channel scope I used at work and wished I had one myself. I noticed in a lot of YouTube videos posted by HAMS that a Rigol oscilloscope was on their bench. I decided to try the DS1054Z. The price and included software seemed too good to be true but it wasn't. Tequipment provided easy ordering and fast shipping. The online chat quickly answered my questions about what shipped with the unit and shipping was fast and free. The DS1054Z is built as beautiful and sturdy as the scopes I used at work that cost thousands more. There are so many features that it will be a while before I get to use them all but my initial check out is more than living up to my expectations. Customer support from TEquipment and Rigol is as easy as a phone call and no long holding queues to get to a support technician. Happy is just the start of my satisfaction with the Rigol DS1054. Try it, you love it.

Nice Nice Nice

This is a great piece of equipment for the money. I already have a 100MHz Picoscope 3205D MSO, but there are times when you need more than 2 analog channels, and situations where it is useful to have a standalone scope. So, with some reservations about spending money I didn't necessarily need to spend, I went ahead and bought the DS1054Z. I've been using it for about a week and I am really happy with it. Once in a while I have to go to the manual, but for the most part I don't. All of the commonly used channel, time base and trigger functions you find on higher-end Agilent scopes are easy to find and generally work as expected. Likewise for using cursors, taking measurements, saving screen images, and using the convenient rows of context-dependent buttons on each side of the screen. I have not yet used the serial decode options. The assortment is limited and they aren't really why I bought the scope, but they are nice to have and will probably come in handy at some point. I also haven't made much use of the remote control interface, but I saw and verified that with the scope connected to LAN you can save a screen image with a single linux shell command: echo ":DISPLAY:DATA? ON,OFF,PNG" | nc -w1 192.168.1.185 5555 | dd bs=1 skip=11 of=image.png Thanks to RoGeorge's blog for this, it's a slick and convenient alternative to monkeying around with a flash drive. The DS1054Z user interface for creating and editing text strings is tedious, you'll experience this entering a license code for any options you get for the scope. At this point the DS1054Z seems to be a real bargain at the price. I feel like I'm using a much more expensive piece of test equipment, it looks and feels well made and I enjoy working with it. I'm definitely glad I made the purchase decision.

I have the Rigol 2072 which is an excellent scope, but often felt frustrated at having only 2 channels. When this went on sell with decoders, memory and bandwidth upgrade, I jumped on it! As others have notes, the front end is a little noisy, and the probes are a bit cheap (I've bought used tek probes on ebay when my old ones broke) The decoding functions are a bit clunky, but much better than the open source logic analyzers I've used, and quite usable enough to help me debug an i2c problem on a recent project. They probalby won't help you reverse engineer a protocol, but they will tell you enough to make sure you have it working with proper pullups etc.

I bought the Rigol DS1054Z about a month ago. Before that I was using a very good analogue unit. Wow, what an upgrade this has been! At first I thought it was going to be hard to use, but I found the basic instruction manual is very well written and the controls very intuitive. It took me about 30 minutes to be comfortable using it as my first digital oscilloscope. Most of this time was forcing myself to read the instructions rather than just jump in and try to figure it out by myself. I have had a chance to test the unit with various projects that I am learning as a student doing an electronics course at a technical institution. I have found this unit much easier to use than my home scope and ones in the classroom. It is packed full of features. I love the comprehensive measurement data which compares channels. The display is very crisp and it just looks nice :) I did quite a bit of research before I got this and found this unit by far the best value for money in the lower-end scope price range. Very happy :)

I am amazed how much one gets with this scope. I am replacing an excellent Tektronix 475. I like the accuracy of the frequency counter, accurate values of level and time with a cursor. It has measurement values featured I am not aware of. I do wish dB would be one of those front line values shown. That could be fixed with a software upgrade. Yes, I did work with the Math and Measurement function and saw dB, but it not like being there as a choice with other main values. Fluke meters can express dB levels. The probe tips are brittle, I lost a tip by bumping the probes. The excellent support of Tequipment said they are sending a replacement. That is excellent support. I haven't received it yet, but several follow ups indicated they have not forgotten me. I hope Rigol can offer a dB reference value, easier than the doing the Math and Measurement. I give it 5 stars, it is such a great deal!

fantastic investment for the electronics hobbyist

5.0

There are certain milestones that, looking back, the hobbyist recognizes as huge leaps in their understanding and capability. Buying and using a digital storage oscilloscope turned out to be one of those times for me. There are so may ways in which a circuit can malfunction, appearing inert. The diligent, clever technician can probably work through these, given time and some basic tools. For the hobbyist with limited time, such a situation can prove a major roadblock. A scope like this provides unprecedented insight into the workings (or failings) of the circuit, often reducing troubleshooting from hours to minutes. My only regret is in not having prioritized investment in an instrument like this years ago.

Absolutely terrific scope value for the money

5.0

I had ordered a competitor's 2ch higher bandwidth scope since that one had serial decoding included in the price. It was a nice scope but locked up hard two times over two days, one time while just sitting on the bench not really doing anything. So I returned that one, and as I was getting ready to reorder I found out that Rigol was doing the bundle special to turn on nearly all the features in the DS1054Z. So even with only 50 MHz bandwidth that was too good a deal to pass by for a 4 Ch scope. After a brief learning curve I can say this scope is great. It already saved me a great deal of time on an embedded system project I've been contracted to work on. The SPI decoding, even though it is only software based, works great. Some people have complained about the multi-function knob being too sensitive. I have not found that to be the case, once in a while I may over or under shoot but that is rare. So far the only negative, and it is pretty minor, is that the fan is a little bit noisy, Not excessively, but it is noisier than the competitor's model I had ordered orginially. But a piece of test gear is only as good as the support behind it. Tequipment is great, and they got me the free bundle upgrade very quickly, even though the Amazon e-mail system made it challenging to get them my direct e-mail address so the license details could be sent to me. And I had a couple of learning curve related issues that I contacted Rigol support about and they were also very responsive and very helpful. I would certainly purchase another Rigol product in the future if needed, and would purchase again from Tequipment for sure.

I admit that I have five other oscilloscopes, from bottom of the line to the top [25 years old] Tektronic and other scopes) but for general purpose, and portable units, this is hard to beat. I also use this for my electronic presentations.

Worth the money

5.0

It's hard to find a scope this capable for this amount of money. The added free software functions are also a bonus.

The buttons respond nice and the color and intensity of the display is good. My only real concerns are some of the cursor and measurement functions are difficult to navigate through the onscreen commands and the lack of the automatic probe compensation pads surrounding the BNC connectors. The latter isn't much of an issue though if you just use the probes that come with it.

I highly reccommend picking one up if you're a beginner or hobbyist, the price is hard to beat

I recommend this product to anyone that needs a decent product. I have been pleasantly surprised with the build quality, look and feel of this oscilloscope that does everything I needed and much more. The display has a beautiful phosphor look-and-feel with an adjustable persistence that is sharp and clean. This is the best product I have purchased and for the price it is an exceptional scope. I have played with other scopes in the same class and Rigol has cornered the market with build quality, options and user interface that is easy to use. Without hesitation, I would purchase the Rigol DS1054z again.

Exelente Cost Benefit Ratio

5.0

The Rigol DS1054z (04 channels) oscilloscope was an excellent purchase, with great cost-benefit ratio. It is possible to say that I researched a lot and did not find anything better for the price, I did not find anything with so many possibilities of upgrades, connectivity and so on. The decisive point for my purchase was when the price dropped to $349 with a promotion where some licenses to upgrade the equipment were given for free. I'm a detail oriented person. The equipment is not perfect. Looking for finishing problems may be possible to find small flaws, however, nothing to bother with. It is a good product for the price. Anyway, for now, the equipment is worth 5 stars. I need to use it more to be able to do more considerations. For now, I would buy it again.

Very good utility, great feature set (particularly as the official full-option trigger/decode/memory bundle was included free). Controls could be a bit quicker/more responsive, some menu items more straightforward, screen text bigger; but overall a very quick learning curve and everything seems to work. My "50 MHz" DS1054Z arrived with 3.8 ns rise time (10-90%) and 98 MHz -3dB bandwidth on all four channels, at 100mV/division. It is evidently rated conservatively. YMMV...

The people at Tequipment were knowledgeable and pleasant to when I had questions and talking my order. (Thank you) I like the design and layout of this scope and its intuitive controls with a context help menu button is a great feature in learning the advanced functions. This scope feels solid (not a toy) and the resolution of the display is good and clear and the data display is easy to see pleasing to the eye. After just a week I found that the new options are spectacular it has a similar feel as the analog scope I have already tested the I2c and serial options and found that they are great for analyzing data and troubleshooting communications issues with ham radio and microcontrollers. The XY plots are much improved over the older version of the Rigol entry series scopes. The persistence settings have a phosphor look to them in either dot or vector settings. I like the FFT option but it could use some love from the programmers and the navigation system with the user interface and scrolling through the spectral waveform markers would be a nice options. Unbelievable options At $350 Bucks with all the options enabled this scope is a great deal. This gets my “I Would Buy it Again!” Stamp of approval!

LOVE THIS SCOPE! Oh my goodness....it has SO MANY features.

We're a county-wide team, and we have students from many schools. This scope just fits right in with us. it's so easy to read. Has a bright-clear display. Auto-display waveform voltages, frequencies, locks right on in a heart-beat to all of our sensor and arduino (and other microcontroller) waveforms. The Stop/Run is basically perfect. You press Stop, then roll the Horizontal Position dial a tiny bit, and the waveform for all (4) channels clears up instantly.

We have it plugged into the LAN, and we "PRINT" directly to a USB Memory Stick for moving files to the PC, for email, posting into slack.com (our team management blog), and for displaying waveform graphs in meetings (we are currently building a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite for launch in 2018....besides our regular robotics duties! We're trouble shooting Arduino to DAC protocols over SPI and other I2C packets.

We haven't yet paid the approx. $180 to upgrade to the packet decoding firmware. But, the first 30 hours using it was phenomenal. That's a little steep of a price for just that functionality, but it'll prove worth it. And, we'll probably be paying another $180-$200 for the other I2C, RS232, serial data, etc., decoding capability. By the time we finish with that, yes, now we're going to be up to an $800 scope. But, it's operating so pro-like, that I'm not feeling hesitant to do these upgrades. Do wish we could locate a not-for-profit 1/2 off discount, though, for these upgrades!

A Great Value in a Programmable Power Supply

I have used this programmable power supply now for several projects over about a month to characterize the V-I characteristics of a series of TVS diodes. This power supply has shown itself to have outputs that are surprisingly accurate, stable, and quiet. Setting up a series of precise test voltages with a precise current limit was a snap. The unusual circular numeric keypad looks odd, but in practice it's very easy to become accustomed to it and I don't think it's a bad thing at all. Setting up voltages and currents with it is quite easy with very little practice. As others have no doubt mentioned, this unit does have a fan, however at the low output power levels I used the noise level was minimal and not annoying to me at all.

Channels 3 and 4 are helpful more often than you think and when you must see 4 events at the same time to find an issue a 2 channel scope just won't do.

Excellent Power Supply

The Rigol DP832 has been working great for me. It is very intuitive and easy to operate, and the quality of the DC output is superb. I really enjoy the ability to turn each channel on and off individually. The reason I removed 1 star is because: 1) The High Resolution Display/Control should be a standard feature, instead of an extra $110 for the unlock code. Everyone can benefit from the fine resolution control. I am OK with the other locked features being extra cost, since not everyone can use them. 2) I wish there was a way to internally configure the power supply to put channels 1 and 2 in series. They can be manually connected with a short jumper wire, but cheaper power supplies have this feature...and I am naturally lazy enough to not want to walk across the lab to get a jumper cable. Overall, a great power supply for a decent price.

I'm working on embedded microprocessors and motion control I can see both logical level control and power on the same screen and take good-enough measurements.

Faulty on arrival

3.0

When I unboxed the unit I found it to be well packed and well padded by the packing material. I could not wait to start using the DSO. The user interface with the various buttons and dials took a little getting used to. I found the interface a little unresponsive, for example when enabling or disabling channels you might have to press the button a couple of times to get it accept the selection. I also found it disconcerting to hear relays clicking as I changed the vertical scale. I could have lived with this behaviour but when I started to examine the waveforms, either from the calibration output or from shorted inputs, I found there was high frequency noise present superimposed on the waveform. The noise occupied 1 increment (2mm) on the vertical axis irrespective of the vertical scale and irrespective of the channel or channels selected. I tried different probes, those that came with the unit and others that I already owned, and it did not make any difference. There appears to be an issue with the vertical amplifier. I contacted TEquipment and they promptly organised an RMA to return the unit. Unfortunately I have to wait until they receive the unit back, and test it before sending a replacement. They did offer me the option of buying another and then getting a credit back when they receive back the original unit but who wants to pay double for something that arrives faulty? I will update the review when I have received the replacement and tested it out.

Once you get familiar with the scope and its many capabilities, you won't want to look at any other possibilities to meet your scope requirements. I just can't believe I can get this much value in an essential instrument for this price.

Quality DMM

4.0

The accuracy and responsiveness of the DMM is very good, as other have mentioned. I like the fact that I can control the characteristics of the display (brightness, contrast & invert). There are two issues regarding the probes, I feel should be addressed. The sheaths on the probes can be difficult to remove. At first I thought they weren't removable, which didn't make sense considering that they came with threaded alligator clips. I contacted Rigol in Beaverton OR and they informed me that the sheaths can be obstinate to remove initially and to use a set of needle nose pliers to remove them. That worked like a charm and now they come off with reasonable effort. The second issue, also deals with the probes. This may be an isolated issue, however I thought it was worth mentioning. The probes I received, although they are well made, do not provide consistent readings. I swapped them with a set of Probe Master probes and the issue went away. I also tried the Rigol probes on another multimeter and had the same issue. Maybe it's just my set.

Excellent value

5.0

We purchased this scope for our makerspace (Hive13.org). Our aging analog scopes were great for introduction to basic electronics but didn't have any storage (and the small CRT was hard for multiple people to see). After a great deal of research the Rigol 1054Z arose to the top for the best "bang for the buck". This is part of the new Asian value scopes that deliver almost all the features of the big names (Tektronix, Keysight) for about 1/2 the price. While I don't think they have quite the build quality of the military grade Tek line, I do feel they meet the need of the hobbyist. I personally bought a Hantek scope with similar features a few months ago, and I now wish I had gotten the Rigol. All these types of scopes usually suffer mostly from poor user interface design. You can really feel the menu structure and language is not quite baked. Comparing the Hantek to the Rigol I really feel like Rigol spent much more time on usability and overall appearance. I now know why the Rigol continues to win comparisons on the value scope line. We plan on putting this scope in our electronics lab as the main unit. I'm giving a class on the operation this weekend and I've dug pretty deep into the various menus and overall operation and I am still in love with this scope. We are a happy customer. BradmanOH

My first oscope

5.0

I'm a seasoned software developer of 30 years. I bought this scope to help me learn more about electrical circuits as I started doing more bare-metal embedded programming. I haven't touched an oscope this century, so I was a little intimidated. All those fears were for naught - my experience with the Rigol DS1054z has been fabulous. It is very easy to use and I have been exploring/using various functions (e.g., math, triggers, etc.). As a plus - the saving of screenshots to a USB drive is trivial and I actually use that feature almost every time I use the scope. The size is nice, it's pretty quiet, and I've been using it nearly every day since it arrived. I've already recommended this scope to a number of people.

Rigol DS1054Z

5.0

The Rigol DS1054Z is an AMAZING oscilloscope! I had an Instek 100 Mhz dual trace from 2008 and this scope is so much more capable I can't believe it at a $399 price point. I particularly like the many trigger options including greater than less than triggering (pulse greater than 5 ms but less than 10 ms). Also the RS-232 decoding is a very nice feature. The many horizontal and vertical measuring options and the 4 input channels make this a real winner; a Tektronix scope that can do this is 2-3X more costly. I use this every day and aside from the slightly noisy fan (nit picking) I haven't found a downside.

This is a great scope with features that are missing on name brand scopes that cost several times more. At work I have access to many highend scopes that have all the bells and whistles one would want or need, this scope has most all of the same features just with lower bandwidth making it a great home bench scope. My only gripe with the scope is the yellow probe tip insulators do not stay on as well as they should. I normally use the clip ends anyhow making a non-isuue.

great scope

5.0

Nice scope with lots of features. It's solid and feels well built right down to the nice probes. The display is small but nice and sharp with lots of info. The brightness is adequate, but it would be nicer to have a brighter backlight. The waveform has a nice analog scope feel thanks to the intensity grading. The viewing angle suffers a bit if put on a high shelf. The main shortcomings are protocol decoding/triggering which are better done with a dedicated logic analyzer. The FFT isn't very useful, it just seems like a way to check off a feature item. The deep memory is nice to have as are the 4 channels. One minor annoyance is the huge battery of measurements turned on by the left row of buttons aren't as easily turned off and end up cluttering the screen. Holding down the "measurement" button for 5 seconds clears them all, but a more intuitive 2nd press on the left button should turn off the corresponding measurement. The connectivity options over USB and ethernet are useful for extending the capability of the scope with PC based processing. All in all it's a great scope and a very useful tool, and thanks to its popularity and widespread use is well supported by the manufacturer, and more importantly by the large user base and tools/info on the internet.

This is my first scope and will primarily use it for my hobby. After tons of research, I found this scope to be a bit more than I need, however I couldn't really pass it up. It has all the goodies you see in the higher dollar scopes, while maintaining an entry-level price point. I figure it is something I'll have for a long time and it has the option to pay for upgrades (sadly no official bandwidth upgrade though, at least no official one, I heard there's a hack...at your own discretion) A lot of people recommended this scope and I can totally see why. Just make sure you are current with the firmware updates because there are occasional glitches that get discovered and ironed out.

I'm an EE student and avid hobbyist. Most of my work tends to revolve around microcontrollers and audio. This is my first scope. Pros: Great measurement and analysis functionality Easy to use Easy and versatile triggering Easy interface to PC (I typically use Matlab) Cons: Interface is just a bit slow, but I've adjusted to it and it doesn't bother me. Nothing that hinders use. FFT is too low resolution for any real use, at least in my experience. I find myself grabbing the waveform over the LXI connection and then performing the FFT in Matlab on my PC. Fan is a tad loud, but it is quieter than my PC

I only had this a few days so far, so I can not comment on the performance. I have been using a Tektronix 7503 150 MHtz for years, but my wife bought a new car and I now have no room in the garage for it. The 7503 was huge and heavy and the DS1054Z is small and very portable compared to it. I had to bring all the equipment to be tested down to the garage before. Now, it will be a pleasure to be able to bring the DS1054Z upstairs where I need it. I can tell there will be quite a learning curve with all the menus etc. All the controls on the analog scopes are pretty intuitive. Going through the different menus, I can see this scope has many-many more functions than the old one. TEquipment shipped the unit very quickly, but FedX's shipping was very slow and their tracking was sparse.

Outstanding Product

5.0

This is easily my favorite power supply of all that I have purchased.

Features I like:

1. quality and accuracy of output (very low noise),

2. the ability to (optionally) do a full power cut-off on over-current,

3. the default start-up mode with outputs being off (while you make adjustments) and then you can switch them on when you have the output(s) set as desired, and the ability to turn off the outputs while you make adjustments. Aside from the obvious circuit-board safety factor this provides, this also makes it undeniably safe to leave your equipment attached between sessions.

4. One thing I really, really like is its user interface -- probably best in the industry. While it is a good idea to dig into the manual and practice every operation, once you have done so, you will probably never need to refer to the manual again. Reason: the interface (button sequences, etc.) is very intuitive, and gets my highest compliments in that they have also managed to make it VERY DIFFICULT to use incorrectly. In other words, it is very difficult to do anything that would damage your circuit boards by accident. It is VERY easy and quick to get what you want.

Also, when you want a specific output setting, there are typically 2 or 3 ways to get it, and each method is intuitive.

Features I MIGHT change (undecided):

1. The layout of the numeric buttons in a circle is different. However, I have not found this to be annoying or encumber my use of this power supply in any way. Two things that I actually find NICE about this are:

a. the fact that they surround the adjustment knob, which makes for proximity of controls that provide alternate ways to achieve a specific output setting, and

b. the fact that I am MUCH LESS LIKELY to hit a numeric button that is very far away (value-wise) from the button I intended. In other words, if you want '8', it is quite difficult to hit '5' by accident. I suspect this is an intentional user interface design to reduce errors (which in the world of powering [sometimes expensive, prototype] circuit boards, is much appreciated by me).

If I was going to stock up a team of technicians with power supplies, this is the one I would purchase.
