The Xprotolab is the first mixed signal oscilloscope with an arbitrary waveform generator in a DIP module. It measures only 1 x 1.6 inches, and can be mounted directly on a breadboard. The Xprotolab can also be used as a development board for the AVR XMEGA microcontroller.

Customer Reviews: Al Jewer (Friday, 13 July 2018) Rating: Fantastic! I built this up to use in my Eurorack system, and it works great! Edgar Kaiser (Wednesday, 24 January 2018) Rating: I received the Xprotolab today and had it up and running in 10 minutes. I am very impressed. It is exactly what I need. The FFT is just amazing. I had been searching for this for a long time. The menu with just four buttons is easy and well designed. Just ordered an Xminilab for integration into an HF transceiver and an Xminilab portable for the shack. Stamatios Misirlis (Monday, 28 March 2016) Rating: I have to admit, this device worth every penny!There are several "pcb like" oscilloscopes on the market, however I choose this because it have an x-y input.Screen is small but I can read it easily. I am almost 50 years old, I haven't my twenty's vision, however I'm not wearing yet eyeglasses either. In my condition I can read every character on screen.The most impressive is the huge number of functions in this tiny device!I place my own DIY pcb behind it, to turn it into a powerful fully parametrical component tester (Tracer). Since then I make amazing measurements which I couldn't done them before, and all in an absolutely portable way.For power supply I use a micro-usb phone charger or a $5 powerbank, which last for days or even weeks!Thanks again!Wish list:Hide usb and serial connector behind screen, to make device even smaller, at the same screen size.May add a backwards menu button.Faster Auto trigger if possiblePlotless trace at XY mode. Larry Critchfield (Monday, 02 March 2015) Rating: I have both XProtoLab's, with screen and without. The one with the screen works very well when you can see it. You need a very good magnifier. The other you have to use the interface. I am running windows. The interface has so many problems I am just not sure where to begin. They have not updated it since I bought mine. Everything on the site is last YEAR.

The screen crashes but the board is still working. It is so unstable that its unusable. I would like to see some updates and if you have new firmware for the boards I would to get it.

However, there are two problems I'd like to point out:



Problem 1:

It is IMPOSSIBLE to install the drivers on Windows 8. Microsoft doesn't allow you to install this driver unless you have a valid certificate (which one has to buy for sixty dollars). This is not necessarily a problem of the device itself, but rather a problem created by Microsoft.



Problem 2:

When one uses the waveform generator, the amplitude changes when generating signals over 10kHz. This problem should be fixable to an extent by code though... :/ More...
