4. INTRODUCTION TO CRO
Versatile electronic instrument giving visual display
of signals
Used for measurement of frequency , amplitude,
phase etc.
Also used in determining the nature and
characteristics of various components.
Has a high bandwidth range thus making it a
sensitive and accurate device.
Easier to use as the internal routine act as a guide to
the user.
15. The most common one is of - TWO INPUTS
.
Although FOUR and EIGHT inputs are available
for special applications
16. There are primary two types of multi-
input oscilloscope :-
Single Beam Oscilloscope
Dual Beam Oscilloscope
Both of them can be converted into a
further
Number of traces.
18. In this oscilloscope two separate
vertical input channels are used.
There are two common operating
modes for the Electronic Switch, called
Alternate and Chop which can be
selected from the instrument’s front
panel.
Dual Trace Oscilloscopes
27. Pattern
When two sinusoidal voltage signals of
equal frequency having some phase
difference are applied to the deflection
plates of CRO, a straight line or an
ellipse appears on the screen these
figures are called Lissajous figures or
Lissajous curves or pattern.
34. Advantage Of DSO
Stores waveform for infinite time
Digitize waveform can be processed in any way
Writing speed is more
Processing of signal is easy
36. Trace storage is an extra feature
They used direct-view storage CRTs
The storage is accomplished using the
principle of secondary emission
Briefings
37. Data can be stored
to infinite time
Image quality is
good
Writing speed is
high
Processing of
signal is easy
Data can be stored
for finite time
Image quality is not
poor
Writing speed is
poor
Processing of signal
is difficult
