## Summary

Jen Castillo and Alvaro Branto discuss essential signal analysis tools for reverse engineering, including digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers. They compare specific products like the Saleae Logic, Analog Discovery 2, and Sigrok, highlighting the transition from expensive, bulky legacy equipment to affordable, portable USB-based solutions. The hosts emphasize practical applications such as debugging I2C buses, performing passive eavesdropping on radio protocols, and using active probes to avoid circuit loading issues.
