I really think Shahriar makes some of the best niche content out there.
He has this wealth of incredibly specialized high end knowledge, but much of the equipment he tears down is just the absolute bleeding edge (or former bleeding edge) of stuff you can find in a normal lab. It's so cool to see what you have to change to squeeze three orders of magnitude more performance out compared to the $300 siglent on my bench.
Not that I'm ever really going to fix a 20,000 piece of test gear by identifying a shorted resistor working backwards from the block diagram, but I feel like I'm at least learning a ton watching him do it =).
It's funny to compare him to BigClive, who comes across as very working-class and mostly tears down the cheapest AliExpress junk, but their actual approach and content is very similar in many ways.
- guerrilla 4y ago> It's funny to compare him to BigClive, who comes across as very working-class and mostly tears down the cheapest AliExpress junk, Hey hey hey now, BigClive does lots of stuff that's not from AliExpress/eBay like giant HV transformers, traffic signals, pedestrial detectors[1], etc. But yeah, all of that kind of matches his blue collar persona while both being equally technical. 1. https://youtu.be/y14B18OMBF8 https://youtu.be/y14B18OMBF8
- ktm5j 4y agoTotally agree, I've been a long time fan of his channel. I don't have any real background in EE other than some personal projects with microcontrollers and fpgas but I've always been interested in the subject in free content like this has been a great way to learn. I would say that I'm a bigger fan of Ben Krasnow's channel applied science because it aligns better with my interests, but love them both :)
