Title: Soundcard Oscilloscope Hardware !!! by MAXPAYNE
Post by: MAXPAYNE on February 21, 2008, 07:54:17 19:54
Soundcard Oscilloscope Hardware !!!

Here is a Soundcard based oscilloscope hardware with overrange detection and complete PC protection.

MAX input magnitude 200V (with 10X)

Both Audible and Visible Overrange Detection

Protection, when signal is present but no power supply

Protecting Soundcard from Excessive Input


This circuit is fully tested with 50V input at 200mV range without 10X attenuation. So if u built it correctly it should work. I will not take any responsibility if u cook your motherboard or soundcard with this !!!!!

I don't know why u r asking for pdf schematic ....everything in the schematic is clear enough to read.....

I am using virtins multiinstrument 3.0 trial version.........


53 times downloaded and only 8 thank you..!!!! Looks like people have to pay to press the Thank you button. They don't want to use "Thank you" but they keep writing thank you in the post !

thanks in advance
u r thanking me in advance but u didn't use thank you button.......Amazing !

Hi,

I wonder if some one has made measurements to define the specs of this design ? specially frequency  limits and response accuracy on the edges of the sound frequency range for example starting at 20Hz and going below for lower range and starting from 20KHz and going above for the upper range. also if any one has made tests for the linearity inside the sound frequency range. or we have to apply corrections if the response is not linear ?

Regards

seaspac

Circuit that is required to work 100 kHz? Interesting

Does this work with every soundcard? How do i know if my sound device can process signals greater than 20khz? aren't soundcards/sound driver IC's capped to filter only 20hz-20khz through?

also, does anyone know of the reverse? a pc soundcard based function generator schematic? Can someone tell me. Thanks

I have experience on making oscilloscope that was used on GameBoy only.

The GBDSO is my first project. It can be used with gameboy.

,

My old pc crashed and I lost those files. :(
unfortunately those days cloud storage was not affordable for me. I hope if anyone downloaded that time, may help you !
