Closely related to a scope’s real-time bandwidth is its maximum specified sample rate. “Real-time” simply means that the scope can capture and display signals commensurate with the scope’s specified ...

Making an oscilloscope is relatively easy, while making a very fast oscilloscope is hard. There’s a trick that converts a mundane instrument into a very fast one, it’s been around since the 1950s, and ...

Digital storage oscilloscopes (DSO) are the primary tools used today by digital designers to perform signal integrity measurements such as setup/hold times, eye margin, and rise/fall times. The two ...

Download this article in PDF format. An oscilloscope is used to measure the voltage change of a signal over time. After a digital multimeter, an oscilloscope is typically the second most common piece ...

Signal integrity is the primary measure of signal quality. Its importance increases with higher signal speed, oscilloscope bandwidth, the need to view small signals, or the need to see small changes ...

Oscilloscopes detect, analyse, and measure the electrical signals of an input and present the data as waveforms on the display. While observing a circuit, the oscilloscope screen depicts an array of ...

Making an oscilloscope is relatively easy, while making a very fast oscilloscope is hard. There’s a trick that converts a mundane instrument into a very fast one, it’s been around since the 1950s, and ...

I don’t believe there is anything that can’t be improved by adding a laser to it. And now a group of intrepid engineers has proven me right by making an oscilloscope. An oscilloscope with lasers. Of ...
