The 1C15 is a single channel handheld oscilloscope with 110MHz analogue bandwidth, 500MSa/s real-time sampling and a rise time under 3ns, measuring up to ±400V with the supplied P6100 probe on X10. It has a 2.4 inch 320 x 240 colour screen, one-key AUTO set-up, a built-in 1kHz square wave test output and a 3000mAh battery that runs for more than 10 hours per charge.
Features and Benefits
- 110MHz bandwidth and 500MSa/s sampling in a 130 x 76 x 27 mm body: enough speed for switching supplies, clocks and digital buses away from the bench.
- One-key AUTO measures amplitude and frequency, then sets the horizontal and vertical scale so the waveform sits in the middle of the screen.
- Auto, Normal and Single triggering on rising or falling edges: periodic signals, logic signals such as IR remote codes, or one-off events such as ignition pulses.
- Reference waveform lock, waveform save and view, drag and expand, plus afterglow (none, 1s, infinite) and scroll mode for noise, jitter and rare events.
- 1kHz 3.3V square wave test output: check the probe and the scope set-up before a job.
- FPGA, ARM and ADC design with intelligent anti-burn protection on the input.
- Eight-way joystick, waterproof conductive silicone buttons and a removable anti-slip, drop-resistant silicone sleeve that hides the fold-out stand.
Applications
- Home appliance and power supply repair.
- Car diagnosis, including ignition and sensor signals with Single trigger.
- Mains measurement with the P6100 probe on X10, within ±400V.
- Product development, research and education.
In the box
- 1C15 oscilloscope, P6100 high voltage probe, alligator clip probe, Micro USB charging cable, English user manual, cloth bag.
Note: the input range is ±40V on X1 and ±400V on X10. Set the probe switch and the 1X10X key to match before measuring, and keep the earth clip on circuit ground.

A: Connect the P6100 probe to the BNC socket, clip its earth lead to circuit ground, touch the tip to the test point and press AUTO. The scope measures amplitude and frequency and sets both scales so the waveform is centred on screen.. Q: What does an oscilloscope measure? A: It measures voltage over time and shows it as a waveform. The 1C15 reads frequency, peak to peak voltage and duty cycle on screen, with ±2% measurement accuracy and ±0.01% frequency accuracy stated by the seller.. Q: What is the time base of an oscilloscope? A: The time base sets how much time each horizontal division covers. On the 1C15 it runs from 5ns to 10s, adjusted with the s and ns keys.. Q: What is the 1kHz square wave output for? A: It gives a known 1kHz, 3.3V signal. Connect the probe to the test terminal to check the probe and set-up: the screen should show a clean square wave.. Q: Can a handheld oscilloscope diagnose car faults? A: Yes, the listing names car diagnosis as an application. Single trigger captures one-off events such as an ignition pulse, and the battery lets you work away from mains power..
