Determining oscilloscope amplitude frequency measurement
Electrical engineers consider the oscilloscope as one of the most important equipment in their lab. Working without it is just like working in blind fold since the oscilloscope provides engineers a clear view of the electronic signal’s hidden world. Aside from presenting a visual display of the circuit’s voltage level at a particular point, the […]
Advantages of modular oscilloscopes over modular digitizers
A powerful option within the tool kit of a test equipment designer, particularly in automatic test equipment (ATE) applications, modular instruments offers all the needed test functions without the added size and expense of benchtop instruments. However, modular digitizers are not as efficient as benchtop oscilloscopes, especially in terms of breadth of measurement functions and […]
PicoScope 3425 oscilloscope suitable for measuring non-ground signals
Pico Technology (www.picotech.com) has launched a four channel oscilloscope that allows users to measure non-ground or floating referenced signals without the need for costly differential probes or preamplifiers. The PicoScope 3425 features a common mode and differential range of up to 400 V, allowing it to measure both low level and high voltage signals. High […]
The oscilloscope’s frequency domain measurements
The oscilloscope’s frequency domain measurements translate a time-domain waveform with a FFT (fast Fourier transform) and measures the frequency domain’s distortion and noise characteristics. Frequency domain measurements offer magnitude and phase characteristics over frequency. Utilizing the FFT to transform a signal quickly into its frequency components is powerful since it reveals the characteristics of signal […]
Lockheed Martin and AAI chose ZTEC Oscilloscope for US Navy’s eCASS Program
ZTEC Instruments (www.ztecinstruments.com) has announced that Textron Systems AAI Corp and Lockheed Martin chose the ZT4628 oscilloscope for the Consolidated Automated Support System (eCASS) of the US Navy to test military aircraft on shore-based depots and naval aircraft carriers. The Navy, under the eCass program, will replace around 600 land- and ship-based CASS systems with […]

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 […]
