Digital storage oscilloscopes (DSO) are the primary tools used today by digital designers to perform signal integrity measurements such as setup/hold times, eye margin, and rise/fall times. The two ...

Closely related to a scope’s real-time bandwidth is its maximum specified sample rate. “Real-time” simply means that the scope can capture and display signals commensurate with the scope’s specified ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Author’s note: Early in my engineering career, I accepted a research project to characterize light transmission ...

The movement from analog to digital oscilloscopes has opened up a new world of measurement opportunities for engineers. By using an ADC paired with a plotter instead of a sweep generator paired with a ...
