Oscilloscope Settings for Power Ripple Testing: Why Choose 20MHz Bandwidth and AC Coupling?

In the process of power supply design and debugging, ripple testing is a critical step in assessing power quality. Many engineers set their oscilloscopes to a bandwidth limit of 20MHz and AC coupling mode during ripple testing. This is not a random choice, but rather based on profound technical considerations. This article will delve into … Read more

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Oscilloscope

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Oscilloscope

Before purchasing an oscilloscope, it is essential to understand your product and determine what type of equipment you need based on the objects you intend to test. It’s not necessarily true that the more advanced the equipment, the better the product will be. Previously, some netizens summarized 10 suggestions, which I personally think are quite … Read more

Understanding Oscilloscope Bandwidth

Understanding Oscilloscope Bandwidth

Recently, during interviews, I found that many hardware test engineers are completely unaware of the concept of oscilloscope bandwidth, and some with over three years of experience do not understand the concept of bandwidth. Some candidates can roughly state the conclusion: the recommended bandwidth for an oscilloscope should be 3-5 times the signal frequency. However, … Read more

Disassembling a Passive Probe: Exploring the Secrets Inside

Disassembling a Passive Probe: Exploring the Secrets Inside

01 What made me curious about passive probes It all started with a question: can a 1X passive probe be used to match a 50-ohm or 75-ohm system like a coaxial cable? Experienced individuals would immediately say no, because even a 1X probe has a significant resistor in series. I happened to have a broken … Read more
