Can't get 2 sensor chips working

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I don't know if I can do that without a storage CRO. I tried altering my 
triggering but can't seem to hold the signal still long enough to actually 
see it.

Don't know if I can sample using my soundcard. I might be able to record 
(dpending on whether the pport bus runs at less than 20Khz in speed.

I then need to find an audio application that will display the waveform in 
scope mode.

Am I missing something or is this my next step?
