Best Answer

An oscilloscope with 2 vertical inputs that are multiplexed to the CRT, either by chopping them together on every sweep or alternating between them on every other sweep. Some oscilloscopes also support a differential mode where the 2 inputs are subtracted to produce a single combined signal.

What are the advantages of using an Oscilloscope over a voltmeter?

In the name of Allah,the most Gracious,the most Merciful... The Oscilloscope has several advantages over a voltmeter, for example if you want to determine a signal parameters [ voltage values (max,peak-to-peak,rms,average...etc),frequency,offset...etc ] using measurement tools: 1- You can use the Oscilloscope whatever the signal frequency is, but you can't use the Avometer unless the signal frequency is 50 to 60 Hz. 2- The Oscilloscope shows you the shape (form) of the signal, while the Avometer doesn't. 3- You can determine the maximum value of the signal (max voltage) and peak-to-peak voltage when you observe the signal on an Oscilloscope,hence you can calculate the rms (root mean square) value, i.e. the effective value , the average value and the offset of signal form the time axis (the horizontal axis). While an Avometer can only give you the rms value.


How do you test a voltage rectifier?

If you actually mean rectifier (rather than regulator), then you can determine if it is performing its base function of converting alternating current to direct current by using a voltmeter. If the rectifier is functioning, you should read a percentage (which depends upon whether it is a half-wave or full-wave rectifier) of the AC peak input value on the DC range of a voltmeter. Using an oscilloscope, you can clearly view the half-wave or full-wave unidirectional (positive or negative only) pulses produced at the output of the rectifier. If the rectifier is blown and is conducting in both directions you will see nothing on a DC voltmeter range (the average value of an AC waveform is zero), and on an oscilloscope you will see the full peak-to-peak AC input waveform at its output.


What does H mean in electrical wiring?

A single H means the wire is heat resistant. <<>> The letter H is also used to designate the primary connection side on a transformer. The letter is usually followed by a number to designate the taps of the primary side. An example is H1 and H2. Dual voltage primaries will have the terminations identifications as H1 and H3, H2 and H4.


What does mean by reverse bias diode?

A A diode has two state either on [forward conduction .7 volts. Or reversed bias meaning the diode voltage polarity are revered or cut off, depends on the diode but it will leak some current , Anyhow that is reversed bias diode conditionForward conduction voltage can vary between about 0.6 volts and about 1.4 volts depending on the diode and the current. Also, some diodes, such as zener diodes, will conduct in the reverse direction. Reverse bias is simply where the anode is more negative than the cathode.

What is Difference between dual trace oscillosope and dual trace generator?

Oscilloscope is used to display electrical signals on a display. A dual trace oscilloscope can display two signals simultaneously. For a trace generator I think you mean a signal or a function generator which generates electrical waveforms of varying shapes, frequency and amplitude. A dual trace or a function generator in that sense is an equipment capable of generating two independent waveforms at the same time. - Neeraj

You have dual channel 512mb RAM right now can you put another 2gb dual in and have two dual channel set ups running at the same time?

By dual channel 512, do you mean you have 512x2, or you mean 206x2. anyway, unless you're making your own computer, and not running a laptop it is nearly impossible to have even 2gb, because that would mean 1x2 which is already alot of money and everything. they dont make 2gb cards all by themselves, you have to run two cards.

What is a ppm in oscilloscope?

Well, ppm usually means "parts per million". But I don't recall seeing this on any oscilloscopes. PPM could mean "Pulses Per Minute", which might make sense on an oscilloscope.
