Description |
In this experiment we learn how to use an oscilloscope. An oscilloscope (scope) is an electronic instrument that displays a voltage input on a screen as a function of time. Here, we use it to display and measure periodic waveforms from the function generator or transient signals, like the discharging of a capacitor in an RC circuit. |
