Do You Tweet?


I'm not sure how valuable Twitter is yet. Some people use it for telling you what they had for breakfast (why do I care?). Dan Evans - our Sales Manager - has a slightly different philosophy for our fledgling Twitter efforts - create content that's of interest, but not self-serving, for our "followers". Here's a viral website that creates controversy to generate followers - The Oatmeal.

Digital Inspection Microscope


We've just received a lot of response to our newsletter mention of our new Digital Inspection Microscope. This is a tool we use for inspecting returned circuit boards and equipment, allowing to see tiny defects. So we made this product available to our customerbase too! See http://www.saelig.com/product/VI016.htm. You can see how it works on this video - it just plugs into a USB port and off you go!

New oscilloscopes


We’ve just introduced two new benchtop scopes from Owon – PDS8102T (100 MHz) and PDS8202T (200 MHz). These low-cost 2-channel scopes sample at 1 Gsa/s and 2 GSa/s respectively, and are packed with useful features normally only seen on higher-end DSOs including video trigger, auto-measurements, large 8" full color LCD display, XY Mode, auto-set, averaging, math functions, USB output, waveform storage, 3-year warranty, etc. Even FFT functionality is included for seeing spectrum information, as well as Autoscaling and Trigger Holdoff. The record length is a huge 2M data points, which allows great depth for investigating fast, intermittent pulses.
