Dual Trace Oscilloscope
The more common and less costly method is to use the dual-
trace, as opposed to dual-beam, method.
In this method, the same electron beam is used to generate
two traces that can be deflected from two independent
vertical sources.
Two methods may be employed to generate the two

independent traces.
ALTERNATE Mode
CHOP Mode
ALTERNATE Mode
A mode control switch enables the electronic switch to operate in

two modes i.e. Alternate and Chop mode When the switch is in
ALTERNATE position.
The electronic switch feeds each signal alternately to the
vertical amplifier.
The electronic switch alternately connects the main vertical

CHOP mode
When the switch is in the CHOP mode position, the electronic
switch is free running at the rate of 200-500 -kHz, entirely
independent of the frequency of UJT sweep generator.

Sampling Oscilloscope
Most ordinary oscilloscopes have an upper frequency limit in the
range 20 MHz to 50 MHz. Higher input frequencies cause the
electron beam to move so fast across the screen that only a very
faint trace is produced.
The sampling oscilloscope overcomes this difficulty by producing

Probes for CRO

connects the tip to the CRO, the shunt capacitance of the cable is
to be considered.
Each probe has two
connections, an input and a
ground. This type of probe
is usually referred to as a 1:1
(one-to-one) probe, because
it does not contain resistors
to attenuate the input signal.
