STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

Name of the Lab./facility Semiconductor Devices lab

Name of the equipment Cathode Ray Oscilloscope

The cathode-ray oscilloscope (CRO) is a common


laboratory instrument that provides accurate time and
Purpose
amplitude measurements of voltage signals over a wide
range of frequencies.

The main objective of this instrument is to observe the


constantly varying signal voltages in a 2-d plot of one or
Scope more signals as a function of time.Other signals such as
sound and vibration can be converted to voltages and
displayed.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE FOR CATHOE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE

 Check for any visual problems in the CRO like loose connections.
 The objective of observing a signal on the oscilloscope screen is to make voltage and time
measurements.
 These measurements may be helpful in understanding the behavior of a circuit component, or
the circuit itself, depending on what has to be measured.

 The oscilloscope screen consists of the grids which can be external or internal to the screen of
CRO, which divides both the horizontal axis (voltage) and the vertical axis (time) into divisions
which will be helpful in making the measurements.
 These values are determined by two variables namely the time/div and the volt/div both of
which can be adjusted from the relevant buttons available on the front panel of the oscilloscope.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED
 Do not touch or disconnect while CRO is in operation.
 The push buttons in the CRO should be handled softly without ant hard pressing.

RECORD TO BE MAINTAINED
 Laboratory Manual containing the experiments that can be performed with the equipment.
 Maintenance Record

Name of the equipment Digital Storage Oscilloscope
Digital Storage Oscilloscope stores and analyses the signal
digitally rather than using analog techniques. It is now the
Purpose most common type of oscilloscope in use because of the
advanced trigger, storage, display and measurement
features which it typically provides.

This oscilloscope allows electrical signals, especially time


varying ones, to be observed. The signals may be slow
Scope moving or rapid. The oscilloscope has amplification and
delay features that allow part or all of the signal to be
observed.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE FOR DIGITAL STORAGE OSCILLOSCOPE

 Check for any visual problems in the DSO like loose connections.
 VOLTS/DIV: The VOLTS/DIV knobs adjust the vertical scale (in a 1-2-5 sequence) of the
selected waveforms (channel 1 and channel 2).
 The position control knobs adjust the vertical position of the channel 1 & 2 waveforms.
 Select a formula from the math menu: CH1+CH2, CH1-CH2 or FFT (Fast Fourier Transform).
It can convert a time-domain signal into its frequency components by an advanced FFT math
function.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED
 Use only the power cord specified for this product and certified for the country of use.
 Do not connect or disconnect probes or test leads while they are connected to a voltage source.
 Do not operate this product with covers or panels removed.
 Do not touch exposed connections and components when power is present.
