Measuring AC current (220-V mains RMS current) is not as simple as measuring DC current. In DC current measurement, you can simply hook the oscilloscope probe to the shunt resistor and calculate the ...

I finally did it. After years of wanting one (and pushing off projects because I didn’t have one) I finally bought an oscilloscope. Over the years I read and watched a ton of content about how to use ...

If you want to measure voltage you reach for a voltmeter. Current? An ammeter. Resistance? An ohmmeter. But what about measuring AC power? A watt meter? Usually. But if you know what to do, you could ...

Welcome to the Oscilloscope Triggering Advanced Course! In this series, I will walk you through the details of every corner of real-time oscilloscope trigger systems, and by the time we’re done, ...

AEMC Instruments has introduced a new accessory to its line of hand-held OX series oscilloscopes to facilitate measuring AC voltages in industrial applications where larger clips are required to clip ...

Just about everyone who has ever operated an oscilloscope has used an oscilloscope probe at one time or another. Some have had good experiences, while other had unfavorable ones— possibly as a result ...

The first oscilloscope I ever used professionally was an old synchronized sweep instrument. Obtaining a stable display on that old oscilloscope was an art. Now I appreciate all the triggering tools ...
