looks like a good item.
Is it USB3.0 that let you stream a lot of data to a PC harddrive?
Is it digitally isolated from usb port, incase I touch 115V by mistake with it? any risk to fry a expensive pc's motherboard?
Two-channel oscilloscope with differential inputs
Two-channel arbitrary function generator
16-channel digital logic analyzer (3.3V CMOS and 1.8V or 5V tolerant, 100MS/s)
16-channel pattern generator (3.3V CMOS, 100MS/s)
16-channel virtual digital I/O
Two input/output digital trigger signals for linking multiple instruments (3.3V CMOS)
Two-channel voltmeter (AC, DC, ±20V)
Network analyzer – Bode, Nyquist, Nichols transfer diagrams of a circuit. Range: 1Hz to 10MHz
Spectrum Analyzer – power spectrum and spectral measurements (noise floor, SFDR, SNR, THD, etc.)
Digital Bus Analyzers (SPI, I²C, UART, Parallel)
Two programmable power supplies (0…+5V , 0…-5V)
Write custom software or HDL (for the FPGA) that run directly on the ADALM2000 device.
Analog Devices’ ‘Scopy’ software package. (Windows/Linux)

What's with the name? ADALM2000?

Maybe WiFi is a better way to isolate these days ?
I think I know what my birthday present to my self is this year!
As for isolation using WIFI. That would certainly do it. But you need power from somewhere. As it happens AD has USB isolator chips that provide signal isolation up to 2.5Kv (Using on chip transforms no less). All it needs is a little power isolation module.
Thanks,

No Coax.
It says shipped from Singapore, though my ground ship option probably be by air I hope.
I have not heard anything from Analog when I could expect it.
I will open it up and make a breakdown of what you get for $99, I hope the parts alone cost nearly that and this is a no-profit part for Analog to get people interested/learning.
Seems like a reasonable price. Parts, plus board, plus software development, plus documentation, etc. I know it's a sales pitch for AD but still. Being AD I don't expect it to be bad.
Question is, does it fit what I might want to do with such a thing.
Are they in stock? If these are being stocked in Singapore, I believed it should be faster since I live in the place beside Singapore.
So far when I tried checking out all it said was "Backorder".
Edit: I found another similar one which is the Digilent's Analog Discovery 2, but it's more expensive.
Analog Discovery has been around for several years. At $280, you'd expect it to be well along, but its original version 1 was also introduced at $99 for a while. As version 2, it now has tighter specs, a fancier case, and accessories, like BNC probes, and pages of tutorials and documentation. If we go to Digikey or Mouser just to buy its main ADC chip, an AD9648 (dual 14 bit 105MS/s), that alone will set us back US$80.
I noticed the ADALM-2000 have an FPGA inside too, like the Analog Discovery 2.
Right now I'm still waiting for the ADALM2000 to be in stock, but seems that the documentations and the software are quite sparse compared to the Analog Discovery 2.
Any recommendations on which one is better?
Yes, when available, it will be shipped directly by ADI and it's distribution channels.
Not everyone needs to use Kickstarter to make product pre-announcements .
It should be shipping end of May, assuming there are no issues in the final revision of hardware.
Scopy is loaded and ready to go.
I see recent Microchip news claims
PIC32MK MC devices combine 32-bit processing with advanced analog peripherals such as a quad 10 MHz op amp, high-speed comparators and motor-control optimized Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) modules. The devices also have Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) modules capable of total throughput of 25.45 Mega-Samples Per Second (MSPS) in 12-bit mode or 33.79 MSPS in 8-bit mode, enabling higher precision in motor control applications. The devices come with up to 1 MB Live Update Flash, 4 KB of EEPROM and 256 KB SRAM.
- but that 33.79 MSPS in 8-bit mode is across 7 units, so it is a little creative, as it is not per channel..
Suggests you can interleave all 7 and burst into the 256k RAM at that sample rate, means it stores 7.75ms of info, single channel CRO ?
I contacted the product line engineer to see when these boards are available to ship.
I will contact you, as soon as, I have an update.
Thank You and Best Regards,Victoria Gugliotta
Who gets them first?
Dock date for me is now Aug 23.
No stock Digikey or Mouser. Who else ordered one of these?
I noticed there is no curriculum set up on the web site for schools to use.
But they do have my money.
It's weird that it's taking this long, they already had fully working engineering versions so why not just start manufacturing them?
- and they may have some chip errata they decided to wait for, or maybe they are 'crowd funding' this so some backlog number is needed to hit 'go' ?

Got mine yesterday. Lots of good parts for the price. All SMD components are on breadboard friendly adapters.
