Experiment No 1: Objective: To Study The Operation of Oscilloscope and Function Generator

This document summarizes an experiment to study the operation of an oscilloscope and function generator. The experiment involves using a function generator to output different wave shapes and frequencies to observe on an oscilloscope. The oscilloscope is then used to measure voltages, time periods, frequencies, and other electrical quantities. Tables are included to record observations and measurements made during the experiment.

EXPERIMENT No 1

Objective: To study the operation of Oscilloscope and Function


Generator

Apparatus: Oscilloscope, Function Generator

Procedure:

Function generator:
We can get different types of wave shapes from a function generator. A function generator
has a frequency range and we can get varying amplitude from its main output. We can
verify its frequency and wave shapes by applying its output to oscilloscope.
For using a function generator we plug its probe in any of the output jack 20 Vp-p or
15Vp-p.select the required frequency and amplitude from there select switches.
Moreover different wave shapes are available. The wave shape can be observed on the
oscilloscope and can be easily adjusted.
Oscilloscope:
An oscilloscope can display and measure many electric quantities. It can measure:
1. AC/DC voltages
2. Frequency, time period.
3. Phase difference and many more.
Voltage measurement:
1. Connect the signal to be measured to the input jack and select CH1/CH2 to be
used.
2. Set the VOLTS/DIV and TIME/DIV controls to obtain a waveform.
3. Adjust the reference level of the trace by POS control. make sure to calibrate the
oscilloscope,
4. Set the AC-GND-DC switch to DC or AC.
5. use the X POS and VOLTS/DIV control to set the waveform
6. Multiply the vertical measured distance (no. of large divisions on oscilloscope)
with VOLTS/DIV and probe magnification.
7. Similarly Vp-p can be measured for AC voltages by counting the no. of division.

Observations for voltage

s/no No. of division VOLTS/DIV Voltage(volts) DMM


(mV) Vp-p reading(volts)
1 2 5/2
2 4 5/4
3 6 5/6
4 8 5/8
5 10 5/10

Time and frequency measurement:

1. Connect the signal to be measured to CH1/CH2.also switch the channel.


2. Set the VOLTS/DIV and TIME/DIV to obtain a normal waveform. Keep the
VAR SWEEP control to CAL.

3. using POS control adjust the reference at the center of horizontal and vertical
line

4. Measure the horizontal distance between two points. Multiply this by the
TIME/DIV control and magnification.

Time =horizontal div TIME/DIV (1/10 if X10 is used)


5. Frequency measurements are made by measuring the time taken by one cycle.

Frequency=1/time period
