@@KrotowX Post a vid about the how and where these need to be added or indicate which IC's could use them. I'm considering getting one of these to replace my recently acquired Tektronix TDS210.
The calibration does finish eventually. It's definitely not one minute, but even though it seems like it starts from the beginning, the lights actually change every time it loops. I think it's just doing the different channels and configurations, at some point you can even hear the relays flicking. I came to this video a while back, and today I have my first scope. So thank you! I would have also never found out about the calibration feature if it weren't for you. Suppose that's just something you do with scopes, but again I've never had one, and never really came across any video that was like "these are the things to do/not do if you have a scope" either. Maybe that's a good idea, you sure seem like you have the experience to make a good one of those- I'd definitely watch it. Have a nice one, and once again thank you!
These scopes can be very intimidating to someone new to electronics and you explain the functions so clearly, it takes the mystery out of using them. thanks
I just bought one of these yesterday and yt creepily found out some how and this is the first recommended vids of the day. First time I actually agree with the suggestion algo. Sub’d and even clicked the spam bell. Thanks for the awesome content
Nice review, Trying to use the logic analyzer function without a deep dive into the instructions and some pre-testing is quite a task to take on. It is very helpful to see what you showed, thank you.
Thank you for very well made Hantek oscilloscope introduction!! I have bought the DSO10 version and for my audio diy projects (transformers, coils, low frequency measurements) it is amazing cheap solution 😊 Thanks again!!
I am sending mine back. Dynamic microphone test- compared with 30 yo oscilloscope to Hantek DSO2000 series-- Old cro picked up dynamic mic audio no problems. On Hantek, waveform noisy and Cro insensitive. If a whizbang oscilloscope can't do basics like display mic audio, then it's a bin job.
Same here. Minimal amplitude for input signal for this wcope to work as expected is above 20mv. It has noise filter that helps a little bit. Other way. This can be overcome. Just set up a one stage amplifier and then connect the low level signal. One stage amplifier can be tested with 50mv 8npus signal to check if it works...
Never have too many scopes. Still waiting on my first. One day, One day at a time. I can’t wait till I can say I have as many as Paul Or Dave I love shopping for them by watching my fav channels. Thanks. I give it a week and you will have another on your bench. 😂
You can't beat Hantek for the money. Combining an AWG with a very capable hobbyest scope saves money and space. I have a small bench so having two devices in one, at the price of one, makes this unit a great deal.
@@jstro-hobbytech That's so true! I think we all make the same mistakes starting out. I paid too much for my first one, not the second. Now I take my time and shop around for gear. I have 5 oscilloscopes, vintage and new and I've learned something from each one. Great hobby!!
@@jstro-hobbytech I hate a thief or vandal. They don't care how hard you worked for what you have, just a game to them. Someone just hit my car and ran off. It was parked and no one saw it, just our cash out the window!! That was right 'after some other bastard broke in and took my tools. No price to pay for crime these days, I guess we have to get used to it. Or fight back!!
Just discovered your awesome channel and of course subscribed. I tinker with arduinos, pi, esp32 but I'm new to deeper level electronics. One big question I can't seem to find an answer to is some real life use cases and type of troubleshooting where you would use an oscilloscope like that? These features are excellent but I'd love to learn when and how to use them.
A simple one would be to characterize a filter. Say you want to build a low pass filter with a cutoff of 20KHz. (Upper auditory range) You would use the awg to output a sine wave and sweep though a range, say 15K to 25k. Then use the scope to watch. When you see the amplitude halved (-3dB point) that's the cutoff frequency.
300 mhz scope to measure 100 mhz clock? No, the accepted ratio of 5 to 1 is required for a high fidelity measurement, so a 500 mhz scope is desired. Also, the long probe ground is not advised, use a spring ground hook right at the tip of the probe.
Thank you for all your reviews. I am looking for my first scope. I want a Siglent SDS814X HD but its a bit pricey, plus if I blow one up a cheaper one would have less sting. I would like to stay in the $250 range. I am open to suggestions of any scope you recommend. Currently I have been looking at the Hantek DS0215 or the DSO5102P. Which of the two is the better scope? Or perhaps you would have another to take a look at. Thank you.
As batalhas democráticas da tecnologia eletrônica no país chinês têm proporcionando à população mais pobre dos países do terceiro mundo e mesmo nos EUA uma infinidade de instrumentos de ótima quantidade a preços acessíveis, é o caso da hantek e da finirsi , acredito que a Finirsi tem potencial pra passar na frente da hantek , hamatek , siglent e até mesmo chegar perto da Rigor. Aqui no Brasil ainda aparelhos da siglent, hantek são custosos para a consumidor de poucos recursos, tendo a finirsi a preferência nacional.
I get the same comments about reviews... I also show how a new user will experience it, not how someone that has been using it for a month will show it.
I think that's what folks want when they search a video. How am I going to interact with this? Should I download the manual first? There are people who do the deep dives. I'm just not one.
I don't know why there is no mention of an output tone from the Signal Generator.... I know that the generator outputs a sine-wave because I can see it on the scale... but is there also a signal tone for a radio speaker that you can physically hear from a speaker ? I'm trying to do a shortwave radio alignment and I need to physically hear the 455Khz audio signal tone from the generator.
Excellent video! But I have a doubt. Please, can you check for me if it is possible to measure the phase angle between two sinusoidals with this equipment? That is, what is the phase angle between channels 1 and 2 when both channels have a sine wave, but the frequencies of channels 1 and 2 are different? Does it do this measurement automatically? Thanks.
I’m hoping you can help me. I just got a Hantek DSO2D15. The trigger setting in 10X mode is not stable. I’m not sure if my scope is broke or if it’s a defect in the software. It seems to work fine in 1X mode. Set the scope in 10X mode. Connect the probe to a power source - I used the 5 volt probe check. Set the trigger or hit the Autoset button. Now adjust the volts per division a few times. Does your trigger setting drop down to 0? Thanks for your help and keep up the great videos.
You have to move the trigger level up like to a volt or two or halfway to whatever your Peak voltages so that the trigger will lock on property instead of jumping all over the place
Is this model sufficient for a beginner in vintage radio servicing, adjustments, alignments, vintage and modern ham radio, audio/music electronics like guitar amps and synthesizers, as well as restoring vintage retro computers? Can it handle the higher voltages of tube electronics?… Can the generator AND scope be used simultaneously for both injecting a signal into a circuit, and then simultaneously measuring it in the circuit with the probes? Also, I’d love to see your version of a video on OSCILLOSCOPE SAFETY, in terms of grounding, isolation, and avoiding a ZZZAPPING experience… Thanks!
Another question: Can I buy a 200Mhz probe and use it on a 100Mhz scope or this 150Mhz scope? Do I need to match the Mhz exactly with what the scope can do? Thanks!
Yes you can do that the probe has not to be the exact one. More important is that you have to calibrate the probe at the scope over it´s trimming capacitor with the cal marked place at the oscilloscope.
You found a better use for the solder tool than actual soldering, opening a box seems to work well. Rohde and Schwarz! Yeah, that isn't happening. ROFLOL, in calibration mode forever. If you are using the switching power supply for the crystal oscillator, you may want to try battery power to see if the signal is cleaner. Open the box review is really more of an overview. In depth review may take an hour or more. No worries Paul.☮
depends on the level of importance of what you're working on the probes in my experience rarely blip off calibration once dialed in, and i thrashed mine in my book bag in school
Hi, nice Scope for beginners..(150MHz ?)..but why do they put only 1! Prob with it ? And aligator clips with an 150MHz Scope ...no go.. Greatings from germany
If interested in reselling I'm looking for my first oscilloscope, and was looking for something 100-200mhz with a waveform generator? Should I buy new or buy used?
Saw few videos and forum saying this 2000 series had trigger problem, it freeze the screen. Wonder if this issue had been solved by Hantek and which date are the newer one that no longer hvae this issue.
There is a hack to upgrade it to a 1104z. There is a TH-cam video to watch, then a website to enter your current product code/serial number and it generates a new one with 100MHz and a bunch of new triggers enabled. I have done it to mine. Worked fine right away.
It seems glitchy. Is this because you're being loosey goosey with the settings or because the scope could benefit from a few rounds of software updates?
It could really benefit from a software update. I have this scope myself (also my first scope ever) that I bought after seeing the review he did on the 2C10. For me for a first scope it's pretty awesome. After getting up to the latest software update it has taken away a lot of that "glitchy" feel.
A scope that can't autoset its own generated wave, let alone a clean decoding is a bit dear for $250. I keep saying these are just toys even if it has an XY mode and FFT. Only if a $200 ($100 or less too) scope beats a $2000 one, will Tektronix, et al, go out of business.
An oscilloscope is great, but lack the ability to read amps. How about a video on an affordable graphing power meter to use in the field - something many a technician could use
Just purchased the C version of this(non generator). I could get the can decoder to work but have constant issues with the spi decoder. similar issues to what you were having.
Although Hantek made efforts to release firmware and software updates for the DSO 2000 series oscilloscopes, they should provide also the software tools needed to perform backup and restore operations. Furthermore, I wonder how can a company that manufactures oscilloscopes can release a product on the market without heatsinks installed on the processors and without a good silent fan to aid the cooling process of the device wile running?
@@learnelectronics The funny thing is that the other two popular models from Hantek, DSO4102C and DSO5102P, do have passive and active cooling. I saw teardowns of those two models and both had heatsinks and fan.
Hi, are you so kind to explain me the schematic circuit on the breadboard around minute 9:41....it is only vcc and gnd on pin 2 and 4 of cristal? many thanks Marco
I do exactly as you do, and my waveform generator says “signal source not supported” when I click the wave generate button. Does anyone know why this is?
I’m no expert on the inner workings of oscilloscopes, but there are some kits out there you can buy for pretty cheap that will net you a pretty good scope. However, they won’t have anywhere near the bandwidth and sample rate of scopes made by brands like Hantek or Rigol. If you’re willing to put in the time and effort to design, program, and put together a scope like this one, it’ll take you months, if not years, and may end up costing more than if you just bought a scope outright.
Just put a FM portable radio in front of this scope and you get a noisy radio because it radiates harmonics from lcd to 0.5 m. Move radio back of scope and noise it start from5 cm. Test your home tv and see if the radio is geting any noise. Then test another scope. I had Tek......series 1000 at job. No harmonics radiation with the radio at 1 cm around. No email answer about this issue from hantek
Without this 'calibration' the values of scope will be wrong ??? I never see it before, this is the first video I see talking about this calibration menu.
thank you for the video. I'm trying to catch all the hantek ones. was looking at the Hantek DSO2D15 becasue of all the bells and whistles and lower price, but all these things I'm reading abut freezing issues. and youtube reviewers who said it's awesome then next month they have a video about all freezing problems and even 5 months later they still have some problems. as of October 2022 , does anyone know if Hantek has fixed all the firmware bugs that caused freezing. some people showed repeatable actions which made this happen doing normal things. Techcorner guy has at least 3-4 videos showing his ongoing saga trying to get it fixed using different firmwares. I also read that maybe adding a fan or heat sinks on IC's help with some freezing? at this point in 2022, if this is truly an issue , has Hantek added a Fan and more heat sinks to the Internals? I would feel more safe buying it, if I knew it was past this stuff now and new one would have some love and attention from Hantek after all the youtube and eevblog feedback to them. Note I have only read some so far about the issues as eevblogs is overwhelming, too many videos from multiple people show the firmware and the hacking you have to do. and at least 3 different regular youtube makers with problems on the Hantek DSO2Dxx Would love to buy this if anyone knows it's all fixed now? or do we still need to add a fan and heat sinks? but seriously if hantek has this out for 2 years then new models should have fans installed at hantek factory or is that Wonderland thinking?
I hear you, see you also need to realize if they fix something they will bump up the price... not only that they also will have new pictures published everywhere "upgraded version 2023" whatever and Amazon sellers will copy that picture and sell you old ones with new marketing material. The real upgrade will be to just have a new face panel. I knew this was a trash item so I bought used one. Saved few hundred.
Depends on what you want to do with it. I recommend the 4000C with the signal generator or 5000D series because it has the 16 CH Analog Analyzer and the signal generator. Hantek scopes are pretty easy to unlock the faster speed as well so it is more important to get 4 channels. You will need to get the faster probes for a few dollars though because the slower scope ships with "slower" probes. The internals are the same because they are software locked to the speed. If you want faster signal generator I would recommend getting the FY6800 for $100. Hantek also has a very rare 4000S which has an Analog analyzer and Signal generator.
I just got one of these and it's my first scope, seems like some other commenters are in the same boat there... I also wouldn't have known about the calibration or the 20min warm up time had I not seen it here, none of the other videos I've seen about these scopes touch on either, what I'm wondering is whether that needs to be done every time I power up the machine or if it's mainly a one-time thing... I assume the probe compensation is mainly a one-time operation but I'm not sure whether the scope calibration is or not
In this age of technology are they still using RC or LC oscilators internally? For a crystal clock its jumping everywhere (may be due to trigger but it seems its not trigger). Total trash.
to be very honest with you I watched your video till the end and I am no fan of the product I have the Rigol DS 1054 it is way better than the Hantek in many aspects.
Nice review. Sorry but i don't like this scope. Cheap and not good at all. He looks like a pro but he's not. No more than 20/30 MHz maximum and certainly not 150 or 200 MHz => if you want to obtain stable and precise measurements
Mine doesn't trigger signals under 500mVpp at 1 KHz, even with the latest firmware update dso3kb_20220517 they sent me today July 14th '22. The DSO2D15 is just a toy, Hantek's after sale is a joke and offensive for the customer who has issue with one of their product. Buying this oscilloscope was more than frustrating. It will be more than a month since the Hantek after sale goes on with firmware updates that do not solve the situation of this machine at all. I would never have imagined such a poor product, I definitely do not recommend it to anyone and rather invest in a Rigol, Tektronix and other brands that have been in the field for more than thirty years, not these chinoiseries.
@@impactodelsurenterprise2440 Sure I do! When you buy something expensive and doesn't perform like it should, you are left alone without any help, there is no means to be able to return the scope and you have no help from Hantek, what do you do? I start a war on them by youtube, blogs, etc. After two months I am still waiting for help from the after sales department. Is it a serious company in your opinion who places unreliable oscilloscopes on the market? What I learned is next time I'll buy instrumentation from companies that have been in the field for thirty years.
Installing radiators on both ICs inside is highly recommended. Solves random freeze problems caused by overheating.
Radiators on both ICs is must have mod for DSO2xxx scopes AFAIK.
@@KrotowX Post a vid about the how and where these need to be added or indicate which IC's could use them. I'm considering getting one of these to replace my recently acquired Tektronix TDS210.
Add a fan. It has a spot.

The calibration does finish eventually. It's definitely not one minute, but even though it seems like it starts from the beginning, the lights actually change every time it loops. I think it's just doing the different channels and configurations, at some point you can even hear the relays flicking.

Just purchased the C version of this(non generator). I could get the can decoder to work but have constant issues with the spi decoder. similar issues to what you were having.
Hi
Recently I have bought an oscilloscope of this model 2d15 and I wanna know have it any pc software??
Although Hantek made efforts to release firmware and software updates for the DSO 2000 series oscilloscopes, they should provide also the software tools needed to perform backup and restore operations.
Furthermore, I wonder how can a company that manufactures oscilloscopes can release a product on the market without heatsinks installed on the processors and without a good silent fan to aid the cooling process of the device wile running?
It's China. There moto might as well be: We got you to buy it, it's yours now.
Buyer beware. Do your due diligence.
@@learnelectronics The funny thing is that the other two popular models from Hantek, DSO4102C and DSO5102P, do have passive and active cooling.
I saw teardowns of those two models and both had heatsinks and fan.
Nice Scope...
Hi, are you so kind to explain me the schematic circuit on the breadboard around minute 9:41....it is only vcc and gnd on pin 2 and 4 of cristal? many thanks Marco
They released an update for the decoder for this reason

I do exactly as you do, and my waveform generator says “signal source not supported” when I click the wave generate button. Does anyone know why this is?
Good information video 🌹🌹❤❤
It has no RTC so when user take a screenshot, that file has not timed name secuence... al images has 1979 tag :/
Thanks. Can it do Bode plots?
No
@@learnelectronics Thanks, Paul.
Can you tell me difference between d10&d15 ---bandwidth?
How much is the device?
why they only give u 1 probe?
Good to see you brother!
Can one, in a mighty labor of love, DIY a 2 or 4 channel , decent digital oscilloscope, peacefully, without breaking the ATM?
I’m no expert on the inner workings of oscilloscopes, but there are some kits out there you can buy for pretty cheap that will net you a pretty good scope. However, they won’t have anywhere near the bandwidth and sample rate of scopes made by brands like Hantek or Rigol.
If you’re willing to put in the time and effort to design, program, and put together a scope like this one, it’ll take you months, if not years, and may end up costing more than if you just bought a scope outright.
I like your reviews of o-scopes, but do you have recommendations for the hobbyist?
This one right here. For under 300 bucks you can't bear it.
What do I do if mine can’t properly read voltage?
Just put a FM portable radio in front of this scope and you get a noisy radio because it radiates harmonics from lcd to 0.5 m. Move radio back of scope and noise it start from5 cm. Test your home tv and see if the radio is geting any noise. Then test another scope. I had Tek......series 1000 at job. No harmonics radiation with the radio at 1 cm around. No email answer about this issue from hantek
3:15 look at that beautyyyyyyyyyy.
Can the grid be turned of it 're sized?
Yep
I have that scope. You have to leave calibration do its job. You didnt calibrate it, you cancled calibration
Thanks I'll let it run again
Without this 'calibration' the values of scope will be wrong ??? I never see it before, this is the first video I see talking about this calibration menu.
Title is wrong, it is a DSO2D15
thank you for the video. I'm trying to catch all the hantek ones. was looking at the Hantek DSO2D15 becasue of all the bells and whistles and lower price, but all these things I'm reading abut freezing issues. and youtube reviewers who said it's awesome then next month they have a video about all freezing problems and even 5 months later they still have some problems. as of October 2022 , does anyone know if Hantek has fixed all the firmware bugs that caused freezing. some people showed repeatable actions which made this happen doing normal things.
Techcorner guy has at least 3-4 videos showing his ongoing saga trying to get it fixed using different firmwares. I also read that maybe adding a fan or heat sinks on IC's help with some freezing? at this point in 2022, if this is truly an issue , has Hantek added a Fan and more heat sinks to the Internals?
I would feel more safe buying it, if I knew it was past this stuff now and new one would have some love and attention from Hantek after all the youtube and eevblog feedback to them.
Note I have only read some so far about the issues as eevblogs is overwhelming, too many videos from multiple people show the firmware and the hacking you have to do. and at least 3 different regular youtube makers with problems on the Hantek DSO2Dxx
Would love to buy this if anyone knows it's all fixed now? or do we still need to add a fan and heat sinks? but seriously if hantek has this out for 2 years then new models should have fans installed at hantek factory or is that Wonderland thinking?
I hear you, see you also need to realize if they fix something they will bump up the price... not only that they also will have new pictures published everywhere "upgraded version 2023" whatever and Amazon sellers will copy that picture and sell you old ones with new marketing material. The real upgrade will be to just have a new face panel. I knew this was a trash item so I bought used one. Saved few hundred.
what is the max vpp?
Hi Sir, for a weekend hobbyist, what doc would you recommend?
Depends on what you want to do with it. I recommend the 4000C with the signal generator or 5000D series because it has the 16 CH Analog Analyzer and the signal generator. Hantek scopes are pretty easy to unlock the faster speed as well so it is more important to get 4 channels. You will need to get the faster probes for a few dollars though because the slower scope ships with "slower" probes. The internals are the same because they are software locked to the speed. If you want faster signal generator I would recommend getting the FY6800 for $100. Hantek also has a very rare 4000S which has an Analog analyzer and Signal generator.
@@excitedbox5705 OK, thanks 👍
I just got one of these and it's my first scope, seems like some other commenters are in the same boat there... I also wouldn't have known about the calibration or the 20min warm up time had I not seen it here, none of the other videos I've seen about these scopes touch on either, what I'm wondering is whether that needs to be done every time I power up the machine or if it's mainly a one-time thing... I assume the probe compensation is mainly a one-time operation but I'm not sure whether the scope calibration is or not
Only once
Where do you put all these things? 😶
The video Could be even more detailed, in my opinion.
Why is it soooo glitchy and laggy?
I disagree. Even a 100MHz scope should only be 3dB down at 100MHz. This should be fine at 100MHz.
Mine got bricked with very little use. Just beware before buying this series.
3:49 *ASMR*
In this age of technology are they still using RC or LC oscilators internally? For a crystal clock its jumping everywhere (may be due to trigger but it seems its not trigger). Total trash.
Do you have a basement full of oscilloscopes? lol
10MHz squarewave... wibbly sine wave...
I wouldn’t even know how to cut it on
Why it's fluctuating? 10:08
to be very honest with you I watched your video till the end and I am no fan of the product I have the Rigol DS 1054 it is way better than the Hantek in many aspects.
Yes it is, it's also about 2x the price
exactly.... but don't worry I already made a like for
I am Baker from Jordan, glad to talk to you have a good day.
The Rigol is worth every penny, it's 10 times the scope, even if it's an older design.
0:05 ANOTHER? XD
"it's there it works"... ASCII mess on screen...
Nice review. Sorry but i don't like this scope. Cheap and not good at all. He looks like a pro but he's not. No more than 20/30 MHz maximum and certainly not 150 or 200 MHz => if you want to obtain stable and precise measurements
Mine doesn't trigger signals under 500mVpp at 1 KHz, even with the latest firmware update dso3kb_20220517 they sent me today July 14th '22.
The DSO2D15 is just a toy, Hantek's after sale is a joke and offensive for the customer who has issue with one of their product.
Buying this oscilloscope was more than frustrating. It will be more than a month since the Hantek after sale goes on with firmware updates that do not solve the situation of this machine at all.
I would never have imagined such a poor product, I definitely do not recommend it to anyone and rather invest in a Rigol, Tektronix and other brands that have been in the field for more than thirty years, not these chinoiseries.
Man you really are posting the same thing in every damn hantek yt vids
@@impactodelsurenterprise2440 Sure I do!
When you buy something expensive and doesn't perform like it should, you are left alone without any help, there is no means to be able to return the scope and you have no help from Hantek, what do you do? I start a war on them by youtube, blogs, etc.
After two months I am still waiting for help from the after sales department. Is it a serious company in your opinion who places unreliable oscilloscopes on the market?
What I learned is next time I'll buy instrumentation from companies that have been in the field for thirty years.
My three second review: It's a POS.
