The circuit will provide a 20 ±0. 1 dB voltage gain from 500 kHz to 50 MHz. The low-frequency response of the amplifter can be extended by increasing the value of the 0. 05- F capacitor connected in series with the input terminal. This circuit will yield an....

The ADC Tester (A2100) is a LWDAQ device that records the output and power consumption of two ADC s. Its original purpose was comparative testing of two ADCs at different temperatures, but it turned out that the A2100 makes a good dual-channel eighteen-bit....

I have some Tektronix oscilloscopes with appropriate plug in units yielding an four channel display, I always wanted something else: A true four channel oscilloscope with four distinct X/Y inputs which would allow me not only to display four traces with a....

For those are not into electronics, you must know that an oscilloscope has basically only one timebase to move the spot horizontally from left to right with the same intensity. The vertical deviation is function to the input voltage. You understand....

I read Doug Grant`s article regarding Heathkit in his Blog via the EDN Network. Doug reminisced about building his first Heathkit and how much he learned. He suggested that every EE had at least one kit and I suspect he is right. However, as Doug pointed....

AN79 Linear Technology AN79 modifies methods presented in AN74, permitting verification of 30 nanosecond amplifier settling times to 0. 1% resolution. sampling-based technique used is detailed and results presented. Appendices cover oscilloscope overdrive....

For months I`ve been looking for a simple FM BUG project, the ones online require inductors which you either have to acquire or build, if you don`t have a LCR meter it becomes rather hard to get the circuit working, specially if you`re a beginner without an....

The input attenuator uses a commutating capacitor to cancel the input capacitance of the FET buffer (see DC-10 MHz amp schematic). The commutating capacitors are absolutely necessary to cancel the effect of the input capacitance to the DC-10MHz amplifier.....

This is a handy companion for a digital voltmeter. Its allowed me to do a lot of things I used to use my oscilloscope for, and in addition it measures voltages to much greater precision.Using an LM324 quad op amp, this peak detector provides 2% measurement....

The DC-10 MHz amplifier shown below is identical for both scope channels. The input FET should be mounted directly on the adjustable attenuator switch for best frequency response. The vertical position pots, R27 and R51, change the dc level of the traces,....

Usually we see Digital clock on LCD or 7 segmen. But, this AVR Digital Clock which is designed by Ficara Emilio displayed on Oscilloscope. The project use ATtiny 2313 as the main controller. What an interesting microcontroller project. Source code and....

As a piece of test equipment, an audio oscillator has to be considered essential for anyone working in with hi-fi gear. Together with an audio millivoltmeter (as described in Project 16), and even better if you have access to an oscilloscope, you will be....

The applet shows a simulation of Chua's circuit, plotting the voltage measured across C1 against the voltage measured across C2. This corresponds to the display on an X-Y oscilloscope with probes connected across these capacitors. The initial values of the....

Probably the best advantage is its very small size and the fact that it can run off the power supply of the circuit being tested. Although it has a low frequency range, it can still be used for most circuits. Its poor resolution will still allow for most....

This site contains public-domain schematics for a dual-trace, triggered oscilloscope, and some theory. Click on the topic in the table below to see the schematic for that block. I designed and built this oscilloscope in 1986 using the chassis of a....

The analog switch multiplexes between channel 1 and channel 2 at the end of each sweep. Controls include Dual Trace/Single Trace mode, sync polarity, sync level, and sync on + or - (rise or falling) edges...

In the early `80s, I read some articles on LED arrays. They described using arrays of 64 or more LEDs as crude oscilloscopes and other interesting things. I decided I`d make one myself - a really big array, 256 LEDs arranged as 16 columns by 16 rows. In....

This is a portable oscilloscope adapter that it can be held in breast pocket. Its operation is only sampling and sending to host PC. The most of functions of the oscilloscope are processed by host PC. Therefore, oscilloscope adapter can be simplified. This....

A few months ago as I was surfing on the net, I saw an oscilloscope based on PIC18F2550 microcontroller and a KS0108 controller based graphical LCD. That was Steven Cholewiak's web site. I had never seen before so amazing microcontroller-only oscilloscope.....

After one has built a QRP transmitter, it would be interesting to know the exact amount of output power. Without a power meter the peak to peak voltage Vss is measured at an 50 ohm resistance (dummy load) with the available oscilloscope. Now the power rate....

Finally, white LED`s are bright enough to use in a practical stroboscope. This circuit can operate as a bench-top stroboscope that, in conjunction with an oscilloscope or frequency meter and bench top power supply can accurately measure rotational speeds, or....

When measure video signal with oscilloscope, video line selector is very useful to find a scan line. The line selecter generates trigger pulse at selected line, oscilloscope will display only selected line. This is a very simple video line selector...

Measures 10mV to 50Volt RMS in eight ranges. Simply connect to your Avo-meter set to 50µA range. Connect J2 and J3 to an Avo-meter set to 50µA range. Switching SW2 the four input ranges will be multiplied by 5. Total fsd ranges are: 10mV, 50mV, 100mV,....

This project arises from the need to home-build a valid tuning control for a multi band transceiver. It consists of a partial syntesis V.F.O. that fits to single conversion equipments with an I.F. stage nearby 9 MHz. The circuit can cover the whole H.F.....

The probe described here was designed to be used over the range of several tens of Hz to a couple MHz with currents from a few tens of milliamps to about 10 amps peak-to-peak. Formulae are give which will allow you to create a design suitable for your own....

The project was originally intended as a present for my brothers dorm room, but a bad capacitor and the lack of a proper oscilloscope caused delays. It has not made it off the breadboard, and it probably will not until his next semester. The circuit contains....

A clamp-on "current probe" such as the Tektronix P6021 is a useful means of displaying current waveforms on an oscilloscope. Unfortunately, the low-frequency response is somewhat limited, as shown in the Table. The more sensitive range on the P6021 is 2....

The MAX104 processes analog input bandwidths that exceed 2.2GHz with 8-bit resolution. It sets a new standard for performance in high- frequency, high-bandwidth digital communications receivers, digital oscilloscopes, and high-speed data-acquisition systems.....

Originally, the prime harmonics were generated with 74HC4046 PLLs which were spot-on accurate but would take some time to reach their final frequencies, especially when running at low frequencies. They also limited the useful frequency output range and I....

The AD8055-based amplifier has greater-than-100-MHz bandwidth, fully adequate for the 10-MHz oscilloscope. Its input impedance is 1 M in parallel with 30 pF to match the oscilloscope`s input and its low-capacitance probes. Figure 2b shows the final eye....

The Tri-Waveform Generator can be used for a number of different uses. The one that I use it for is a signal generator to test circuits. The frequency range is 20 to 20khz. and can be adjusted by R1. The duty cycle or the time that the waveform is high and....

The general (and very basic) principle of operation is shown in Figure 1. The test signal is simply derived from the mains, and is a sinewave at 50 or 60Hz. In most locations, the sinewave will be distorted, but this barely matters. With nothing connected to....
