The King is dead. Long live the King. Or, rather, the Gadget Master competition has ended, time for a new Gadget Master competition to start! We hope you like the prize up for grabs this time, as our Technology Editor has long been advocating this one as a prize. It's a very neat Pocket-Sized Digital Oscilloscope - the ARM-powered DSO Nano V2, to be precise. And it's kindly supplied by Digi-Key who sponsor the Gadget Master blog.
It would set you back £112 on Amazon - or would, if we hadn't just bought the last in stock (!). With six triggering modes, 1Mhz analogue bandwidth and a built-in signal generator, it is described thus:
DSO Nano v2 is a Digital Storage Oscilloscope designed for basic electronic engineering tasks. Within its smart shell, the device runs on ARM CortexTM-M3 32 bit platform, provides basic waveform monitoring with extensive functions. It is equipped with a 320x240 colour LCD, microSD card storage, portable probes, LiPo battery, USB connection and signal generator.Here's the May/June compo!
The prize question:
As always, we'll keep the format familiar and straightforward: correctly answer this question for a chance of winning the pocket scope.
The recent Arduino Reprise: clocks, bikes, words and cameras featured a number of posts involving Linux. Which post contains a picture with some lego housing in it?
Once you know the correct response, just email competition@electronicsweekly.com stating the title of the blog post that has the correct image in it.
The competition closes end of play Friday 24 June 2011. You can view the Terms and Conditions.
Good luck!
