Oscilloscope


An oscilloscope is a measurement and testing instrument thet measures AC waveforms with two-axis on screen :

1. Vertical Axis

Represent the voltage.

2. Horizontal Axis

Represent the time or phase angle.



The quantities can be shown on the screen of an oscilloscope :

1. Amplitude ( Peak value, Vp).
2. Peak-to-peak value (Vpp).
3. Period (T) and frequency (f).

Example :

From figure as shown below, shows a AC sine wave displayed on the screen of an oscilloscope. The voltage knob is set at 5 v/div. Calculate the Peak-to-peak value (Vpp).



Solution :

Givev:
The variable value (v/div) = 5v/div
The number of vertical division = 6.4 division.

Therefore, peak-to peak value (Vpp) :

Vpp
= 5v/div X 6.4div
= 32V

Vp = Vpp/2 
      =16V

  1. Hello everyone, I'm Patricia Sherman in Oklahoma USA right now. I would like to share with you my experience of borrowing USD $185,000.00 to clear my bank draft and start a new business. It all started when I lost my house and I took my stuff because of the bank policy and I met some bills and some personal needs. So I became very desperate and started looking for funds in every way. Fortunately for me, a friend of mine, Linda told me about a credit company firm, I was intrigued by the fraud, but I was intrigued by my situation and had no choice but to get advice from my friend about this company. contacting them really doubted me because of my past experience with online lenders, did you know that little? '' Elegantloanfirm@hotmail.com This company has been very helpful to me and my colleague and today, thanks to this credit company, the proud owner of well-organized work and responsibilities, they smiled back at me. So if you really need to grow or start your own business, or if you really need to borrow money in any financial hardship, we recommend you find a financial development opportunity in your business today. {E-mail:} Elegantloanfirm@hotmail.com / whats-app number +393511617486.... online for credit not a victim of scam Thank you.
