family consists of three models
covering all levels of digital logic
instruction. The DL-010
Combinational Logic Trainer teaches
the initial concepts of AND, OR, and
XOR gates. The DL-020 Sequential
Logic Trainer introduces the concept
of conditional feedback and includes
D Flip-•op, NAND gates, and a 4-to-1
multiplexer; both models are now
available to ship from stock.Lastly, the
DL-030 is a microprocessor trainer
that employs an FPGA chip, allowing
a user to fully implement a
functioning microcontroller in
minutes. These logic trainers simplify
the teaching process by eliminating
the need to discretely wire ICs as all
components are pre-mounted, decoupled, and de-bounced, ready for
immediate classroom use. Most
importantly, each trainer includes a
training manual featuring overviews
of digital logic and over 60
corresponding hands-on exercises
enhancing any existing textbook
currently in use.
The trainers are packaged in
sturdy blow-molded cases and come
complete with a power supply and
machined pin hookup wires.

NEW 200 MHz MSO
In electronics, continuing integration has risen to a level
which requires a broad range of
features available only in the mid-range class — until now, with the
extension of Hameg’s popular HMO
series by eight instruments (two-,
four-channel, 70 to 200 MHz).
With the new two-channel 70
MHz instrument (HMO722), the
serial triggering and decoding of I2C,
SPI, and UART/RS-232 protocols can
be performed via the analog
channels. With three-conductor
buses, the external trigger input is
also used.
All instruments are MSO ready
and (after buying a logic probe
HO3508) can be upgraded with
eight logic channels. Standard
features are a powerful mask test,
extended mathematics, (e.g.,
integration or digital filters), an
integrated source of square wave
signals, up to four bits wide random
or counter patterns, I2C, SPI, and
UART signals with different data
rates, and a component tester. Also
unique is the sensitivity of 1 mV/div.
