Don’t get zapped — Using test instruments safely
Most engineers think they've minimized the chance of nasty surprises around the test bench when they've grounded their instruments and perhaps kept one hand in their pocket when working around high voltages. That said, there remain electrical hazards that are less obvious. They involve the … [Read More...] about Don’t get zapped — Using test instruments safely
Basics of digital oscilloscope architecture
A digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) is characterized by the presence of a microprocessor, which is physically and functionally at the heart of the processing section. Other stages in the processor are the acquisition memory, at its input and the display memory at its output. The DSO’s signal … [Read More...] about Basics of digital oscilloscope architecture
