I need to know what specs I should look for in a scope that will measure typical logic pulses from about 20 hz to 200 hz. Notice that's HZ....not MHZ.

I see scopes with a bandwidth like 100 - 350 MHZ, others with specs like <100 MHZ....my question is...will these scopes measure signals SLOWER than their specs...I know they won't do faster.

Often I see them listed with vert and horizontal saying "DC to 100mhz" which leads me to believe they will measure from a steady DC voltage up to the rated MHZ. Which would serve my purposes.

I'm looking to measure ignition pulses from hall effect crank triggers and logic circuits.....like a micro-controller ignition trigger signal.

It should be no problem to use a scope with a 100 MHZ band width to measure or look at 60hz in a electrical outlet.

That's what I was thinking....hell my VOM will do those frequencies.
