| Description |
This thesis outlines the development, manufacturing, and testing of the Scopocket: a combined oscilloscope, ohmmeter, waveform generator, and power supply in a small and portable form-factor. The Scopocket is a low-cost and easy to use alternative to traditional lab bench tools, with strong potential for use as an engineering and mathematics teaching tool. It was designed in an iterative process with four printed circuit board revisions, and can be manufactured for less than $20 per unit. The Scopocket has been successfully trialed in multiple courses at the University of Utah, and there are plans to continue to use it in the future. All the code and design files for the Scopocket are open-source, and can be found with documentation at Scopocket.com. |
