The hackspace has acquired an amount of test equipment over the years. Here you'll find details of what we've got, and any available documentation.
Test Equipment
- Thurlby Landar LA3200 Logic Analyser
- ITT Metrix OX-800 Analogue CRT Oscilloscope, 20MHz bandwidth, 2 channel
- Hameg HM203-7 Analogue CRT Oscilloscope, 20MHz bandwidth, 2 channel, Qty=2
- (FAULTY) GW Instek GDS-820S Digital Storage Oscilloscope, 100MS/s real time, 150MHz bandwidth, 25GS/s Equivalent Time, 2 channel - read the caveats
- Various oscilloscope probes, choose a probe with a larger bandwidth than the oscilloscope
- Skytronic adjustable Power Supply Unit (PSU), 0-20 Volts, 2 Amps, single output
- Maplin XM19V fixed output power supply unit, 13.8 Volts, 7 Amps continuous single output
- Function generator - members project
- Digital handheld multimeters, about 6 off, various types
- Assortment of test leads
- Small oven for reflow (is this still at the space?)
Soldering
- Hot air SMD rework station with soldering iron - Clean soldering iron tips and turn off after use to extend the tips life
- Solder station - Solder and desoldering irons - Clean soldering iron tips and turn off after use to extend the tips life
- Various other soldering irons - about 5 by the last count
- Solder, leaded and lead-free (wash hands after use), magnifiers, cleaners etc.
- UV exposure box (Needs glass repairing)
PCB board etching
Currently (2 April 2016) we do not encourage etching boards at the space due to various reasons including chemical disposal, though this may change over time. So please ask on the mailing list what the current status is. It is recognised that this would be a nice-to-do item.
Misc Tools
- Bench lamp with magnifier
- Magnifier headset
- Tools
- Wire of various sizes
- Components free for members use within reason and some to buy which are owned by members
Tools we'd like
- PAT tester (newish or in cal)
- Higher specification digital storage oscilloscope, preferably portable with Serial decode options (I2C, SPI, UART) and deep memory
- Spectrum analyzer, 50 ohm, with generator and return loss bridge (portable would be nice)
- RF 50 ohm cal kit
- RF frequency generators
- Function generators or Arbitrary waveform generator (ARB)
- Linear dual 5A, 0-30V PSU
- Component sample books - SMD and TH, caps, res, inductors
- Full size antistatic table mats
- Power meter
- Current probes
- Metcal soldering irons (lead free types)
- Small pick n place
- Bus pirates
- PCB shear
