The SainSmart DDS120 is a USB-based, 2-channel oscilloscope with an analog bandwidth of 20MS/s and 48MS/s sampling rate.
See SainSmart DDS120/Info for more details (such as lsusb -v output) about the device.

Firmware
The Sainsmart firmware is contained on an i2c eeprom. The FX2 boots directly into that firmware. Loading another firmware is possible but the os needs to support soft reset so it can reload the usb descriptors (linux does so via the USBDEVFS_RESET ioctl).

Gain stage
The gain stage is 2 stage approach. -6dB and -20dB on the first stage (attentuator). The second stage is then doing the gain by 3 different resistor values switched into the feedback loop. The following does not correlate with measure on real hardware, there is a 6th gain position that is working though. It is very similar to another gain and was most likely omitted because of that.
#Channel 0: PC1=1; PC2=0; PC3= 0 -> Gain x0.1 = -20dB -> 0x02 (1V) PC1=1; PC2=0; PC3= 1 -> Gain x0.2 = -14dB -> 0x0A (0.5V) PC1=1; PC2=1; PC3= 0 -> Gain x0.4 = -8dB -> 0x06 (0.250V) PC1=0; PC2=0; PC3= 0 -> Gain x0.5 = -6dB -> 0x00 (0.200V) PC1=0; PC2=0; PC3= 1 -> Gain x1 = 0dB -> 0x08 (0.100V) PC1=0; PC2=1; PC3= 0 -> Gain x2 = +6dB -> 0x04 (0.050V)
#Channel 1: PE1=1; PC4=0; PC5= 0 -> Gain x0.1 = -20dB -> 0x02 (1V) PE1=1; PC4=0; PC5= 1 -> Gain x0.2 = -14dB -> 0x22 (0.5V) PE1=1; PC4=1; PC5= 0 -> Gain x0.4 = -8dB -> 0x12 (0.250V) PE1=0; PC4=0; PC5= 0 -> Gain x0.5 = -6dB -> 0x00 (0.200V) PE1=0; PC4=0; PC5= 1 -> Gain x1 = 0dB -> 0x20 (0.100V) PE1=0; PC4=1; PC5= 0 -> Gain x2 = +6dB -> 0x10 (0.050V)
AC/DC coupling
The coupling is controlled via 2 PhotoMOS chips.
#Channel 0: PE3=0 Disable AC-coupling capacitor (DC-Coupling) PE3=1 Enable AC-coupling capacitor
#Channel 1: PE0=0 Disable AC-coupling capacitor (DC-Coupling) PE0=1 Enable AC-coupling capacitor
1kHz Calibration square wave
Pin PE2 controlls the level of the calibration output on the pcb. This is most likely driven by an ISR timer from the 8051 core of the FX2 chip.
