Description
Oscilloscope for iOS is a powerful digital Oscilloscope & Signal Generator app. Designed to plot audio signals, monitor equipment, analyze events, and test circuits, it is also an excellent learning tool. Its GUI includes many standard oscilloscope controls, such as: triggering, time and voltage per division, signal measurement cursors, and more. The app also incorporates a signal (function) generator capable of generating sine, square, triangle, and sawtooth waveforms of up to 22 KHz. Calibration to an external reference signal is supported, guaranteeing the accuracy of measurements.
Input is acquired via the built-in microphone or a probe connected to the headset connector. For best results one could use an external accessory such as a dock connector audio input device for the iPhone/iPod touch, or USB audio input such as Griffin iMic for the iPad. When connecting external signals via probes, you should take care not to exceed 1V AC voltage. Currently iDevices only support AC input.
Feature Highlights:
* Real-time waveform display (60 FPS)
* Triggering modes: Normal, Auto, Single
* Set trigger level and pre-trigger time
* Built-in function generator
* Reference signal calibration
* Pause function to get a screen capture
* Measure signal data using cursors
* Use "finger pinch" on screen to set voltage and time base
* Double tap screen to enter Black Panel mode
* Four color themes to choose from
* Retina display support
What's New in Version 1.9
- Signal generator switchable to the audio output. You can use that signal to stimulate external circuits and feed their output back into the iDevice input for analysis.
- Performance improvements.

Awesome tool
by Madscien
These guys are great. I asked for the audio out so you can study filter circuits and got a dual signal generator! Left and right separately programmable, frequency and wave shape. Great display. This app rocks.
Oscilloscope is like the real thing
by MicroHydroMan
Oscilloscope works right out of the box using the built-in mike for input. For more serious work the USB audio interface via the iPad Camera connection kit is recommended, though I have not tried that yet. The built-in signal (function) generator is useful as you can get audio feedback while viewing the wave shapes. All the controls and adjustments normally found on a scope are nicely integrated into the iPad / Pod / Phone environment. This app certainly costs way less than a comparable o-scope! -Rob-
