- Review on Siglent SD1202X Oscilloscope.
Amazing scope at $560 on a Amazon!
I’ve been so happy and impressed with this scope.

Siglent SDS1202X link - check it out
Using this link supports me and doesn’t change the price for the buyer at all.
Awesome video! I am starting up a DIY lab and I'm in the market for an Oscope. Your videos have helped me a bunch. I am going to purchase a COTS Oscope from Rigol, Siglent or Hantek. But I will also buy a FPGA DIY scope for educational purposes such as Analog Discovery 2 or Red Pitaya. EEV blog has been really helpful. Would you do a video comparing the COTS scope vs the DIY FPGA scopes? I am an professional FPGA engineer but it looks like you are more of an Audio/Power EE.
dpt4565 thanks for watching, and for the request. I am an analog engineer with only simple digital experience, although I did design a 4 bit slice cpu from an eeprom and gates once;). The siglent I have did come with the option for the logic analyzer. I think the Siglent folks are doing a great job. I think Rigol started off that way but have fallen behind with tech for the price, so they seem a bit expensive. Do you mean Commercial Off the Shelf; COTS?
@@KissAnalog yes you got it. COTS would be something I could buy and use it right out of the box. I'm looking for something college students can use to debug microprocessors and FPGA boards.
I think Siglent’s on the fly help menus would be great. I think you only need the logic analyzer option.
Are there dedicated engineers towards FPGA today? However, that will be just software. Electronics engineers consideres FPGA as a component. Best regards, Civil Engineer in electronics since 1990.
Erika S In some areas FPGA engineers (software guys which I think of as firmware) do pretty good. Nice to hear from you!
Great video, I just got the Siglent SDS1104X-E. Only 100Mhz, I'm a hobbyist, and its way higher spec than what I need, so future proof for sure.
paul30003 That’s an awesome scope! The 100MHz BW will handle everything that most of us need.
Awesome review, I just read your comment on amazon. So decided to check your review first. Anyway now you have convinced me that it's one of the pocket friendly
Kaustav Sengupta thank you! I’m glad to hear from you!
I think you need a multimeter!....great vids, love your presentation, and great info!
LOL Thank you very much!
One is always short of a multimeter, or an oscilloscope :)
I do not know about you i purchased a Key sight dsox1102g 70mhz scope and spend more time trying to learn how to use than anything else so much for your money awesome.
Thanks for this feedback. That is a great scope. Let me know if there's anything specific that I can help with. I have several scopes so should be able to show techniques that are common between them. I've done a few videos with a Keysight, so you can search Kissanalog Keysight and they should come up. Here's one: th-cam.com/video/cLfkw80T01s/w-d-xo.html
Thanks !
you bet!
Deep memory and killer specs for the price!
abusiveben no doubt, but I might look at the SDS1202X-E version, it doesn’t have the option for the digital probes, but it have a better FFT.
abusiveben one thing I forgot, the X-E model has a 7” screen where the X model is 8”.
Kiss Analog - " yeah i'm just going to keep this short " I look and see the vid is almost 30 min...hahaha I love it!!! I remember back in 2012 id start off a vid saying this is just going to be a real quick update...2 hours later i was still recording lmao.
Yeah - I’m trying to work on that;) it’s hard to keep the time short and give content, but I’ll try and be more creative 😉
I know the basics of an Oscilloscope but have not used one for about 10 yrs now but getting back in to building and fixing electronics. I want to buy a budget Oscilloscope for basic work so would this to be my best choice ? or what would you recommend ???
Thanks for sharing , one q pls : any idea of how to make the fonts larger in this Siglent SDS1202X-E ? Keep up the good work .
That’s a great question! I don’t know if you can change the font, but I’ll ask Siglent.
@@KissAnalog Thanks a lot and even if older firmware with this feature would be good .
Hey Eddie...looks like the replacement for this scope "SDS1202X-E" has 1Mpt FFT capture if I read the specs correctly. Is that what you read for this scope?
Yes that is right. I do have an old video that shows the differences between these two Siglent Scopes. I don't know why I didn't release it, I think I will tomorrow.
@@KissAnalog Oh...sounds good. I'll watch it when you post.
My old Tektronix scope is dying so I've been looking at some of these newer digital scopes. Do you think this scope would be usable with vacuum tube audio equipment? Worried it won't be able to handle the high voltages.
What Tektronix do you have? I had a few or a bunch of them;) Do you use a 100x probe? If so, you can use the same probe on the Siglent.
Yes, no worries! What you want to do is buy a 100x probe on Amazon. They are under $20. I just picked one up to do a review - maybe I can post that later today...
By the way - great question!! I’m a big fan of this scope - better than any of my past owned Tektronix. BTW, I still own a Tektronix...just don’t use it.
@@KissAnalog It's a Tek 465. Lately, the trace has been disappearing on it's own. I don't know enough about scopes to go digging around inside. I've had it since the late eighties. Yes, I do have a 100x probe. If that's all it takes then great. Wasn't sure since I work mostly in vintage (well, not vintage to me, lol) analog equipment.
Waltkat I had a TDK 475 and then found a 485. I really was happy with that scope series. You could try checking the aluminum caps - that would not be surprising. It could be the power supply or the CRT ... eeks! You will really like the Siglent, with the fast refresh and deep memory, along with the ability to save - you will find there’s so much more you can do.
@@KissAnalog Thanks for the troubleshooting suggestions. I may (or may not, lol) poke around inside the Tek.
I am also considering one of the Siglent 1104 series scopes too. Not really sure of all the differences between the two though.
I used a digital scope way back in the eighties when Fluke first released their handheld Scopemeter. It helped me track down a very fast, intermittent control signal glitch in a piece of industrial equipment at Xerox when an analog scope couldn't. The analog scope wasn't fast enough to capture and display it clearly, well, at least the scope Xerox had on hand couldn't. It showed up as a faint and blurry smear on the screen every so often so I wasn't sure of what I was seeing, but had my suspicions. Xerox management OK'd the purchase of a Fluke Scopemeter (really expensive at the time) and it was able to capture and display the glitch clearly. Saved me a lot of troubleshooting time. Unfortunately, digital scopes have been out of my price range for my own personal use, until recently. So I guess now is the time to buy one.
Great vid! I will be getting one of these. But what was the make and model of that current probe you talked about for around $50? I would want to order that too along with this o-scope
Thank you! This one is on sale.

This is a link to one if my videos where I review two current probes.

Мне нравятся ваши видео! Виден ваш профессионализм. Хочу приобрести Siglent 1000 серии. Siglent sds 1202x or siglent sds 1202x-e? Спасибо заранее за ответ.
Slav Nvv The 1202x has the bigger screen, but the 1202x-e has the better FFT and is more upgradable;)
Большое спасибо за ответ! Буду и далее смотреть Ваши видео. Хотя английского и не знаю. Перевожу субтитры на русский.
Will this detect frequencies down to single hertz? How would one find that out?
Minimum value detected by frequency meter is 10Hz.
great video! this one or the Rigol DS1202Z-E 2ch, its got more memory depth, the rest seems to be the same. Cant make up my mind!
Actually there is a new player in town;) There is a new GWInstek that came out that kills both of these in specs and price. I'm going to do a video on this. I'm trying to get the discount code as well to pass on that will make it an easy decision. I hope to have this in the next couple of days...
@@KissAnalog that would be awesome, any ideas on the UK retail price, as a student my budget was pretty much maxed out with the silent!
@@KissAnalog and thats selling at 360£ or about 460 $!
I don't think you have enough multimeters !!! LOL
LOL - you are probably right;)
Will you review a bike meter?
Thanks for the great idea;)
Does the SDS1102X+ bode plot?
No, I think you need the 4ch option with a generator option. Do you have the Siglent scope?
