oscilloscope, there are basic things you need to do to set it up and begin using it. This chapter briefly describes how to use an oscilloscope. In particular, proper grounding is very important for safety reasons; not just for yourself but also for the integrated circuits (ICs) you are tes...
Anedgetrigger is the most basic form of the trigger. It will key the oscilloscope to start measuring when the signal voltage passes a certain level. An edge trigger can be set to catch on a rising or falling edge (or both). Apulsetrigger tells the scope to key in on a specified “pu...

so you can adjust the oscilloscope’s offset controls to centre the trace on the screen. You can change the V/div on the scope to increase the size of the waveform to see it more clearly.
Today we have a really interesting topic. Searching the internet, I didn't find any simple solution on "How to read data from car parking sensors," so I decided to write a short and easy-to-understand article to help robotics engineers reverse engineer the cheapest waterproof ultrasonic ...
Where an electronic cursor is used, this links internally with trace data and channel sensitivities, tied to an internal DC voltage standard. In these cases, the main requirement is to calibrate the voltage standard. Continue calibrating The next steps in the oscilloscope calibration process continue...
If you require more customizability than an oscilloscope, such as in-line FPGA processing, adigitizermay be a better fit for your application than an oscilloscope. For example,FlexRIO digitizersalso feature high-performance analog-to-digital converters, but allow for more customization. While oscil...
For instance, a 10 MHz square wave is composed of a 10 MHz sine wave and an infinite number of its harmonics. To capture the true shape of this signal, you must use an oscilloscope with bandwidth large enough to capture several of these harmonics. Otherwise, the signal is distorted and ...
Momentary changes in the measured signal generally result from an external influence such as a sag or surge in the main voltage, activation of a high-power device that is connected to the same electrical circuit, or a loose connection. Use the ScopeRecord function and Event Capture mode of th...
An oscilloscope is typically set up to measure voltage versus time. But you can configure the oscilloscope to measure current as well. This video shows two very simple methods of using the
