Oszilloskope

Oszilloskope, often called oscilloscopes, are electronic measuring instruments used to observe and analyze the waveform of electric signals. They display the signal's voltage as a function of time, providing a visual representation of its characteristics. This allows for the examination of properties such as amplitude, frequency, period, and shape. Early oscilloscopes were analog devices that used a cathode ray tube to generate a visible trace on a screen. Modern oscilloscopes are primarily digital, converting the analog signal into digital data that can be stored, processed, and displayed on a screen. Digital oscilloscopes offer a range of advanced features, including measurement cursors, automated measurements, and the ability to save waveforms for later analysis. They are indispensable tools in a wide variety of fields, including electronics engineering, telecommunications, automotive repair, and scientific research, aiding in troubleshooting, design, and debugging of electronic circuits and systems.
