Real time waveform measurements of electron beams will provide valuable data and possibility of online bunch diagnostics in linear accelerators. The University of Hawaii Linear Accelerator utilizes a thermionic LaB6 cathode microwave gun injector and a single section of S-band linear accelerator capable of producing a 40MeV, 1-2 ps bunched electron beam with average current of 200mA over the duration of a 4.5 us macropulse. This beam, pulsed at 4 Hz, produces strong RF signal at 2.856 GHz which is coupled out of the beam-pipe by a family of stripline beam position monitors (BPM"s) and read out using custom built logarithmic-difference based electronics installed in 2012.A high speed Analog to Digital Convertor and Field-Programmable Gate Array will be used to digitize the signal and record the waveform. The goal is to make a cost effective oscilloscope on a chip/board with feasible and functional operation. Currently there are four BPMs installed and the initial measurement
