I need your opinion. Fluke 123 20MHz is capable of measuring eye-pattern cd?

As a practical matter, I wonder if the ECG Webserver meets the govt. security requirements for patient confidentiality (assuming it would actually be used on a patient at some time in the future). Then there is also the matter of patient safety requirements for hooking up people's bodies to electrical thingies, such as grounding, leakage, etc. But perhaps those things may be left unconsumated for the contest.

The first place guy is on another planet from the 3rd and 2nd guys who seemed to have little justification for using the RX which would be my first criterion if I were judging. Brilliant stuff that makes the most of the part- but he needs to take this to market, not spend his time entering competitions. Lets hope Renesas gives him a helping hand in that - after all they must want to sell the chips!

@Dave i like it. !
Please Do more of this "Design Teardowns for Contest winners" .
It helps people to see how other people solve that way to do it.
And how to deal with this new Chips they spit out of the Silicon Fab.
Thank you for your work.

Maybe it's just me, but I saw the graphic representing a doctor, at 14:00, in the corner of my eye, and thought it was a glass of beer.

@andresoares2007 A 20 MHz scope is plenty for that, no worries.

The Silverlight guy wants a job at Microsoft really bad.
