Oscilloscope Measurement Techniques
There are various ways of taking measurements using the oscilloscope. One of the most basic oscilloscope measurement techniques is voltage measurement. Voltage refers to the sum of electrical potential found between two points within a circuit. One of these two points is usually ground (zero volts). It can be measured from peak-to-peak, starting from the […]
