+## The group assignment
+With the group assignment we wen't and tested different test equipment. First we started of with the most basic one. The multimeter.

+
+### Multimeter
+There are a couple of different options on the multimeter. You can measure voltage, current, resistance and even diodes. Some can test how big capacitors are. There are a wide variety of use cases for multimeters. But today was focused on learning how to use it and how to not blow a fuse in a multimeter. Henk told us to keep the pins in the Com and the ground port otherwise if someone wants to measure voltage and doesn't pay attention how the test probers are connected. It may destroy the multimeter.
+
+### Oscilloscope
+Henk and erwin told us that the oscilloscope is only necessary when debugging electronics. Otherwise if everything works you wouldn't need this tool. With the oscilloscope you can view signals that get generated my the mcu's displayed on a screen.

+
+### Logic analyzer
+An logic analyzer is a digital oscilloscope. The benefit of this device is that it is a lot smaller than a oscilloscope and it can translate the signal to human readable characters using software on the pc. The only downside is that it can't read analog signals.
