Practical No.11: Use DSO to measure and observe different

types of waveforms.

Practical Significance

(DSO) is an oscilloscope which stores and analyses the

loscope
digital storage oscillos
a l digitally rather than using analog techniques. It is the most common type of
lascope because of its advanced trigger, storage, display and measurement
oscil
features. This practical wIll heip you to use DSO to measure different waveform and
on DSO
and in USB.

be Followed
Precautions to
to the equipment.
1Ensure proper earthing
Ensure the power switch is in "off condition initially.
Ensure that the Power Supply switch is in off condition.
Ensure proper settings of range of analog meter before use.

Procedure
Turn on a function generator. The digital ones will take a few seconds to complete
internal tests, but the analog ones will be ready right away.
2. Turn on the digital oscilloscope. After the scope completes its intemal tests, pres
the "Clear menu" button at the lower right hand corner of the display screen.
3. Get a couple of BNC cables Probe. Use the BNC cables to connect the "raain"
output of the generator to CH1 of the oscilloscope and the "aux" (or "sync" or
TTL") output to CH2.
4. Set the controls of the function generator to produce a sine wave of about 1000 Hz
frequency and a few volts amplitude depending on your generator specification.
5. Set DSO on auto run.
6. Press the measure switch. Select the cursor for amplitude.
7. Move the cursor at two peak point.
8. Observe measurement at display. Or measure waveform amplitude using scale value
with number of division like normal CRO method.
9.Measure time using cursor with time cursor or normal CRO method.
10. Change function to Squaie wave of function generator. Repeat the step S to 9 for
the selected wave.
II. Tabulate observation with measurement and waveform.
12. Draw the waveform on graph paper.
13. Save one off signal on DSO and USB Pen Drive and Recollect it.
14 Change AC, DC coupling and observe wave on DSo.
