An oscilloscope takes an electrical input signal and converts it into a visible trace on a screen - i.e. it converts electricity into light.

An oscilloscope helps us to measure the voltage(maximum)....We can also find frequency from it by using a Equation.. We can use the maximum voltage in this equation i=v(maximum)sinѠt to find the current.

Why current cannot be measured directly using an oscilloscope?

A standard oscilloscope is designed to measure voltage, you need a current probe for your oscilloscope to measure current.


What are oscilloscope probes use for?

Oscilloscope probes are used as part of an Oscilloscope. These are the pieces that connect to your circuit in which you would like to measure its sine waves.

How can you maesure using oscilloscopes?

To measure using an oscilloscope, connect the oscilloscope probe to the signal source. Adjust the time and voltage scales on the oscilloscope to properly display the waveform. Use the cursors and measurements feature on the oscilloscope to measure parameters like frequency, amplitude, rise time, and pulse width.

What you will do to measure voltage which is greater than voltage limit of the cathode ray oscilloscope?

change your resistance, its a little button, or if you are using an older oscilloscope, its a knob that will lower the sensitivity of the display. if it is something way higher than the oscilloscope can measure, you may have to run a resistor or transformer in the line.

Can you measure current with an oscilloscope?

Oscilloscopes only measure voltage over time. Current cannot be measured with an Oscilloscope directly, but can be measured indirectly. Measure the voltage across a known load and calculate the current.
