User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This book contains a lot of good information on oscilloscopes that you really can’t get in any other stand alone book. The problem is that the first edition of this book was in the early 1980’s, and now the fifth edition was released in 2001. Oscilloscopes have changed a lot in those 20 years, this book has tried to keep pace, but the patchwork of add-ons and other enhancements really shows.What’s really needed is a complete re-write or at least a complete re-organization of this book. Many the key topics of oscilloscopes are covered by referencing old obsolete oscilloscopes. This of course is foolish and is the result of quickly patching the book over years by adding new chapters for new technology, but not fixing the existing chapters to reference current technology.Anyways, there is still a lot of great information here. It’s just not presented in the ideal way.

⭐I have a lot to gain from this book.

⭐I’m a first time user of oscilloscopes, and this book starts in well in advance of my beginners ability. I’m sure it’s great for folks who have a fairly good background with oscilloscopes already, but I need to back up a ways for my learning skills. I think it’ll help me out more in the future after I get some good hands on experience. An oscilloscope isn’t something you just plug in and start poking around on electrical circuits with. You need patience and previous knowledge of the workings of components and circuitry to make it useful.

⭐started reading it and its very thorough- too much so for me. I really need a book on oscilloscope use for motorcycles only.

⭐For the price an excellent book full of lots of valuable information. Very easy for a beginner to understand oscilloscopes.

⭐I am very pleased with my purchase. Thanks

⭐I’ve starred this according to my own needs. I’m pretty green in electronics so I found much of this book hard going. I was looking for simple instructions on how to get going with my DSO203 pocket oscilloscope (from an almost blank sheet) and expected to find this in the early chapters but was left wondering. I think this is a great book for those experienced in electronics but not too helpful for a greenhorn like me.

⭐I thought I was buying an up to date book but I afraid this was quite out of date.

⭐Got exactly what I expected: a used, slightly battered, ex-college-library book. Very happy with service, and would use them again.

⭐Livre ayant été – sans doute – un bon livre d’initiation lors de sa parution.J’ai voulu tester l’auteur.À l’époque des oscilloscopes numériques et surtout des oscilloscopes USB avec affichage sur PC, il est complètement dépassé (ce qui reste logique).Il existe une version plus récente, mais les commentaires associés n’incitent pas à l’achat – fort onéreux pour un livre de cette taille (40€ en ebook pour 260p.).
