Re: [Phys-l] Tektronix vs. Agilent Scopes



Goodness, yes. I meant to write 2 GB for the size limit of the USB-flash-drives that work with the model of Tektronix scopes that we have.

I still had a few 32MB and 64MB USB-flash-drives around, and I made these available to students "on loan" if they didn't have anything smaller than 4GB, yet needed to store an oscilloscope trace. That's an alternative to having a scope that can accept a large drive... have small loaner drives for them to borrow. So far I haven't lost any.

You mean 2 GB, don't you?

bc has the last of the 1/2 GB USB flash "drives"

One problem we have had with this is that the scopes we currently have will not work with a thumb-drives larger than 2MB, and today most student have thumb-drives larger than that. So this is another thing you should check out.
