The infinite variety of signals out there means you'll never operate an oscilloscope the same way twice. But there are some steps you can count on performing just about every time you test a circuit. On this page we'll show an example signal, and the steps required to measure it. ...
One technique is to measure the differential voltage drop across such a resistor. These are generally low-value resistors, often smaller than 1 Ohm. Measuring current with a current probe: When used in conjunction with an oscilloscope’s voltage measurements capabilities, current probes can enable ...
An oscillator circuit is important and can have many uses in many different circuits and devices. Oscillators can be used for the clock signals which many different chips need to operate. These include counter chips, digital potentiometer chips, and many different types of microprocessors. The clock...
1. The first step is to acquire the DCC signal of interest using PicoScope. Here the signals have been captured from the Somerset Belle Digital Train Set using a PicoScope 5444B set to 12-bit resolution. We used a x10 oscilloscope probe, so the voltage range selected was ±50 V, in ...
You might find one in an aerospace-defense testing facility, another in an automotive factory or still another in any number of research labs. An oscilloscope can display the wave pattern of an electrical signal, and this allows someone to analyze whether or not it's the appropriate pattern ...
How to Measure and Analyze Impedance in a Circuit Differential Impedance You can measure circuit impedance using a setup that comprises oscilloscope, the load with impedance, and a signal generator. Also, you will need to analyze the phase shift and output amplitude against the particular frequency...
The load resistanceRloadshould not be too small, because the output is too heavily burdened and should not be too large, as this will change the voltage very little and leads to measurement errors. For output impedance of a normal power amplifier to operate a speaker aRloadresistance of about...
Simulation of electronics circuits is a key factor to your design success. SPICE circuit simulator may be used to speed the design analysis. Altium Designer will help you to simulate your designs in an efficient and accurate manner, providing a deep insi
I am trying to read data from an oscilloscope into MDA (INCA data reading software), reason being my seniors know how to operate MDA better than other applications like MATLAB. I am wondering how I can format the data in a way that MDA accepts it. I hav...
