The template testing feature adds a capability to traditional oscilloscopes: it allows for a quick assessment of whether the input signal is qualified. When an unqualified signal is captured, we can perform actions such as stopping and taking a screenshot. This article will introduce the template testing functionality of the ZDS4000 series oscilloscopes and provide … Read more
“The FFT function on an oscilloscope is a tool that provides a frequency domain view of signals. Understanding how the FFT function on the oscilloscope can bring digital and RF designs to market.” How to Access FFT on Keysight Oscilloscopes The FFT menu includes options for selecting the type of FFT spectrum calculation, allowing you … Read more
This article will introduce the types and uses of various probes. What is a probe: An oscilloscope is the most commonly used measuring instrument by electronic engineers, and the oscilloscope probe is undoubtedly the most commonly used accessory for the oscilloscope. The oscilloscope probe is the electronic component that connects the measured circuit to the … Read more
Understanding Oscilloscope Probes The measured signal cannot be directly connected to the oscilloscope, so a device is needed to establish an electrical connection between the test point and the oscilloscope. Depending on the needs, this device can be a simple wire or a more complex circuit. The device responsible for linking the test point and … Read more
One of the fundamental issues when using an oscilloscope is how to stabilize the displayed waveform. This article explains what norm and auto mean on the mode selection switch of an oscilloscope. This involves the triggering operation, which is a skill that is relatively difficult to master when using an oscilloscope because it relates to … Read more
Hello everyone, in the previous episode of our 100-episode practical video series, we shared the pulse width search function of the ZDS2022 oscilloscope. The oscilloscope’s search function is practical and convenient. However, some users are still not very familiar with the search function of the ZDS2022 oscilloscope. In fact, the ZDS2022 oscilloscope has a powerful … Read more
When analyzing the characteristics of a signal, it is necessary to examine the measurement results of various parameters of that signal. The ZDS2022 oscilloscope is equipped with the capability to measure 51 different parameters. This video demonstrates this function in practice. Typically, when analyzing the characteristics of a signal, we rely on the measurement results … Read more
Introduction: In previous videos, we introduced the ROLL mode in the horizontal time base. Now, let’s take a look at the X-Y mode in the horizontal time base. What exactly is it? Figure 1 Oscilloscope Screen Display in X-Y Mode In simple terms, the X-Y mode converts voltage-time display into voltage-voltage display. In fact, in … Read more
