content: On the Hong Kong Electronics Fair Hantek shows some new nice gears, there is a short information about onHantek's website already:http://www.hantek.com/english/news_list.asp?unid=213 new gears are already shown on these pictures, luckily i got one of the nice black product catalogs from HK Fair withsome extra informations:Side note - you might get crazy with all these model numbers ...- new DSO1000B series handheld DSOsthey in principle based on the already known (and hacked) DSO5000B bench DSO series with an extra DMM inside.As i got them already i will do an review soon to shows what inside and what can be done insideThe model numbers are:DSO1062B - basic model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 60MHz bwDSO1102B - basic model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 100MHz bwDSO1202B - basic model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 200MHz bwDSO1062BV - ext model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 60MHz bw and video helpDSO1102BV - ext model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 100MHz bw and video helpDSO1202BV - ext model, 1Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 200MHz bw and video helpDSO1062BMV - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 60MHz bw and video helpDSO1102BMV - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 100MHz bw and video helpDSO1202BMV - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 200MHz bw and video helpAll these models have as option LAN port, so in case you buy one don't forget to ask for LAN (or just read my review ...)Product pages are:http://www.hantek.com/english/produce_list.asp?unid=139http://www.hantek.com/english/produce_list.asp?unid=144- new DSO1000S series handheld DSOsthey basically based on these handeld above (BMV series), but with DSO isolated channels (?).Model names are:DSO1062S - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 60MHz bw, video help, isolated channelsDSO1102S - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 100MHz bw, video help, isolated channelsDSO1202S - ext model, 2Mpoint sample memory, 1GSs, 200MHz bw, video help, isolated channelsproduct page :http://www.hantek.com/english/produce_list.asp?unid=140- updated DSO8060 series handheld multidevicessince some time Hantek is producing DSO8060 which is a five-in-one gear:http://www.hantek.com/english/produce_list.asp?unid=80The DSO8060 have a 320x240 display and Rigol-like firmware, specs are not that nice for the price however.The updated series (with B in model name) is based on (what a surprise) on the bench models DSO5000B,or better said on the handhelds above (DSO1000B) - but with some extras added (like on DSO8060).There is no product page yet available, but the HK Fair catalog scan is having all we need,see attached picture dso8060B.jpgThere is no DSO8060B series product page available, so all we have now is the HK Fair catalog- new DSO5000E/F series bench DSOspuhhh, let start with the DSO5000F - the HK Fair catalog shows only one mdoel, DSO5074Fwhich is nothing else than already good known DSO5000B but with 4 channels (and nice new enclosure)As these models are "only" 1GSs sampled it does not make sense to produce 100/200MHz bw models,the resulting 250MS sampling rate with all chanels enabled is no high enough then.For a 60MHz 4 channel scope it's ok.The DSO5000E series seems to be sampled with 2GSs with single channel, 1MSs two channels and 500MSs 4 channels,but it does have less sampling memory - 24points per channel. It is not much, but sufficienf for most applications.The model names are:DSO5064E - 60MHz bwDSO5104E - 100MHz bwDSO5204E - 200MHz bwDSO5304E - 300MHz bwWhat really nice on these E/F series are the extra thigns:- integrated 8 channel logic analyzer- integrated 200MSs 25MHz DDSAs Hantek is really pissed off about the hacks i published you can ensure these devices will be protecteda bit more than current Hantek products ... on the other side it would be a nice things if the DSO5064E wouldbe hackable to DSO5304E. For the DSO5074F i think all what will be possible is to increase bw, but thenof course such hack would be useless when more than two channels enabled.For more details about these models check attached pictures DSO5xxxE_1.jpg, DSO5xxxE_2.jpgAs above no product page yet ...- new Function/AWG generatorthere is not much to say (oh well, TCXO/OCXO timebase is good idea)just look on the specs and picturesHTG1xxxA_1.jpg HTG1xxxA_2.jpgIsn't that device beautiful ? I think it is, i will definitely buy one - probably the HTG1032A and try to"tune it" to HTG1102A ... i bet they can be hacked too.And again no product page yet available ...##############################From what i heard from a nice Hantek woman all these products will be available within next two months,handhelds (DSO1000B/S series) are already available - however you will see in my upcoming reviewthat there are few things you have to watch out when you order.It is really funny to see how smart Hantek is combining their products to get new products - these new HTG1000AAWG are probably nothins else than DDS3x25 attached to S3C2440 Samsung SoC - so the "PC software runs now on ARM",or e.g. DSO8202B - a mix of DSO8060 (which ups - is already mix of DSO1060 and DDS 3x25) and DSO5000B/DSO1000B ...This is nice R&D cost saving for Hantek - and for us a good thing, we can use things we alreadydeveloped for e.g. DDS 3x25 on the HTG AWG or, handhelds ...

content: That HTG1000A generator looks sweet for sure. It reminds me a little of the Rigol DG4000 series which however features only a disappointing 16k memory. 64M sounds pretty damn great. If the arbitrary functionality (250MSa/s and memory size) is the same for all devices, the 30MHz device would be more than sufficient for my needs.So: is anything known about the price point?I didn't even realize it has a 16ch digital mode, too. Damn, I want this nowThe only downside seems to be that this is another example of a crippled PWM mode with no support for duty cycles <20%. Why the heck is a 250MSa/s device limited to a minimum duty cycle of 20% even at low frequencies? I'm aware that older Agilent generators had a similar limitations, but I never really understood why somebody would cripple a functionality without any sensible reason...

content: Quote from: tinhead on December 02, 2011, 01:41:22 pmSure. And if they are clever they can share mechanical parts, like knobs, buttons, sockets and maybe even the back cover. And the same power supply, display, encoders ...But I am such a big fan of the classic small instrument bench enclosure. The one e.g. the Agilent HP 34401A multimeter and many other instruments come in. Don't use so much space, great to stack, sit rock-solid on the bench, handle to carry around and prop the instrument up if not stacked. Good manufacturers offer 19" rack mounting kits for their instruments. And if I need a large display I look for something with an additional PC interface.Sadly it is almost impossible to get this type of enclosure, including rubber bumpers and handle, for own projects or prototypes. You do get enclosures roughly the correct size, but not the bumpers, and only nonsense handles or flip-out feet.

content: Quote from: Smokey on July 29, 2013, 09:19:56 pmIt tooks lot of time for Hantek to proceed with new hardware (4ch or 2GS/s MSO/DSO models, or new handhelds). Exactly said it tooks already over a year. On the other said these new models ar still listed in brand new product catalog, so i think they will be soon released.Look here,http://www.hantek.org/asken/iaskdetail.aspx?id=2013072518442475There is answer about the MSO5074F (org. announced as DSO5074F),it will be released next month!There are as well some informations on the new website:http://www.hantek.com:8080/en/index.html

At that time Siglent was not even able to deliver their DSO to EU, Attenwas a crapy copy of Rigol, UNI-T a joke and Rigol a crapy looking 5.6" CCFL "enlightened" 320x240 resolution box.And that was the reality for next ~3yrs. Why Hantek is still producing these DSO and haven't changed that much? Well ask them,or even better, ask Rigol why they still producing DS1000E. These new Hantek models, as long they not really on the market and not testet is hard to say anything. Now even the price is known (except the DSO4000, but that the lowest end models, so not a real competitor to anything else than low budget students)

I have never seen that on any scope, I think.There is still no LAN (could be added?) and no Trig Out or even Pass / Fail, that is common at cheap scope like Rigol DS1000.Well, what's the actual improvement over the old 2009 series at this DSO4102B? There is even the strange F7 button. I like the Agilent-style knobs. Are they made of rubber?I miss a dedicated Quick Print button.It is also quite common at most scopes.

content: Quote from: echen1024 on December 31, 2013, 02:10:47 amon the new models no idea, but on DSO5xxx models that a function knob to switch on/off dual window mode (which is nice and useful). On MSO5000 it is bit crazy multiknob, so one can select between single/dual window and enable/disable MSO (which is crapand useles). EDIT: no, not useless, but simply double crap. I hate this that much, that i hacked the firmware and moved the MSO functionality to help button (help moved to an useless sys status menu). Now i can enable/disable such major fun ction with dedicated function buttons, and not cycle with one button . Why i think that this is crap -> imagine following situation: you measured with one channel something, then you wish to see that stopped waveform in dual window, e.g. set some markers and search through the waveform ... so you push F7, everything fine, you doing some work, then you wish back to single window - booom , the stupid MSO is enabling second channel and your work is gone, now you push again and MSO is off, but still data captured before is gone. This is double crap.
