Oscilloscope Waveform

Learning objectives

  • To define the frequency and the amplitude of an alternating signal.
  • To determine the horizontal scale of the graph drawn on the oscilloscope screen (TIME/DIV).
  • To determine the vertical scale of the graph drawn on the oscilloscope screen (VOLTS/DIV).
  • To check the comprehension of the student by hiding the screen or the values.

This animation allows you to see alternative ways in which waveforms can be displayed on an oscilloscope. You can modify both frequency and amplitude.
