How does an oscilloscope work?

February 14, 2025common problems 5060

An oscilloscope uses a probe to connect to a test point in a circuit and amplify or attenuate the voltage at that point. The subsequent signal path depends on the oscilloscope, but in general, analog circuits condition the signal and analog-to-digital converters digitize it for further evaluation, processing, and analysis.

How do I measure the frequency?
February 14, 2025 380
How to measure frequency? Measurable Devices, Measurement Methods, and Precautions In everyday life, many people say they don't know much about the frequencies of electrical appliances. However, some electrical appliances have specific compatible frequencies, and using electricity at a frequency that is not compatible with the product may lead to malfunctions, fires, and other risks. In addition, in industrial equipment, there are electrical designed to operate at fixed or variable frequencies...

What is a clamp meter?
February 14, 2025 605
This article will detail the basics of a clamp meter and the principles of measurement. When it comes to instruments that measure current, many people may think of analog or digital multimeters. However, if you want to make measurements without breaking the circuit, a clamp meter is recommended. Direct wiring method ...

What is a digital multimeter?
February 14, 2025 575
A multimeter is an instrument that can measure a wide range of parameters, such as alternating (AC) or direct current (DC) voltage, AC or DC current, resistance, temperature, capacitance, and so on. Modern digital multimeters use digital and logic technology to become smaller and smaller with more and more built-in functions. By introducing digital technology, digital multimeters can provide graphical displays, data logging and signal digitization as well as...

What is a current probe?
February 14, 2025 660
Many people use digital multimeters to easily measure current, voltage, resistance, etc. However, there is a drawback to using a digital multimeter to measure current, namely: the circuit must be disconnected and the digital multimeter must be connected in series with the circuit under test in order to make the measurement. In this case, a current probe can be used instead of a digital multimeter to make measurements. Since the electrical connection of the circuit is no longer required, the current probe is more time-consuming...
