Oscilloscopes
Types of oscilloscope probes
As a fault finding tool for electronics repair, oscilloscope permits users to view the waveforms on the different parts of a circuit. To achieve this, an oscilloscope probe is needed to connect the oscilloscope to the required points. There are two basic types of oscilloscope probes — the active probes and the passive probes. Aside […]

Important oscilloscope specification
When purchasing an oscilloscope, a buyer has to consider various oscilloscope specifications in order to meet his needs for a particular requirement. One significant oscilloscope specification is related to the waveform’s speed and determined by the oscilloscope’s bandwidth. It was discovered that the ability of the oscilloscope to display the waveforms accurately declines with the […]
