This application note describes methods for testing components using an oscilloscope and waveform generator. We will show you how to test capacitors, inductors, diodes, bi-polar transistors, output ...

You have a 1 MHz sinusoidal voltage signal driven into a 5uF capacitor. You are measuring both the voltage and the current with an oscilloscope. What is the phase of the current in relation to the ...

When checking and verifying capacitors, inductors, diodes, bipolar transistors, and cables, the gamut of test methods can range from those used to confirm a defective component to identifying the ...

Even entry-level oscilloscopes today have simple math functions such as adding or subtracting two channels. But as [Arthur Pini] notes, more advanced scopes can now even do integration and ...

Oscilloscope waveforms show real world electronic signals. How well the scope displays those waveforms determines its performance. Assuming two scopes have adequate base specifications – like ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. An oscilloscope uses a two-axis graph to give a visual representation of a waveform over time, ...
