Re: Use a scope to determine overvoltage needed for stepper motors

Hi Tim,

I like Tek scopes as well. I have an Hatachi V-1050 100 MHz dual channel scope (circa 1985) and a Tek TDS-224 100 MHz 4 channel
scope. I use them both, however the Tek gets the most use (smaller, 4 channel and easy of viewing single shot events).

I would think the TDS-210 would satisfy your needs (60 MHz 2 channel). You should be able to get one of these for around
$1000. There are a few places that discount them. I got mine from www.blii.com, no connection, just a satisfied customer.
