What is the difference between an oscilloscope and a spectrum analyzer?

common problems 6950

An oscilloscope captures and displays signals in the time domain, while a spectrum analyzer captures and displays signals in the frequency domain. Sometimes, oscilloscopes have a built-in spectrum analyzer function to make it easy to analyze signals in both the time and frequency domains.

    What is voltage? An easy-to-understand explanation of the difference from current and knowledge of units of measurement ■ Outline When using electronic equipment, you need to have a clear grasp of current, resistance, and voltage. However, there are many people who only know these words and do not understand them in detail. Here, we will explain in layman's terms what the definition of voltage is, what the difference between current and potential is,...

  • What is the importance of waveform sequencing?

    518

    Waveform sequencing lets you create multiple configured waveforms that contain multiple common segments. Sorting lets you build complex, long waveforms using as little instrument memory as possible. Waveform sequencing lets you save storage capacity by replaying shorter waveforms at different locations on the signal as needed. Many tests require long waveform memory records. The required record length...

  • What is a function/waveform generator?

    574

    A function generator is an electronic test device that generates a variety of standard waveforms for a device under test (DUT), such as sine, square, ramp, or sawtooth waveforms. In circuit design and circuit boards, testing often requires the use of controlled signals to simulate routine operations. Testing physical systems and sensors often requires stable and reliable signals that are as low as a few microvolts and may be as high as...

  • How does an oscilloscope work?

    507

    An oscilloscope uses a probe to connect to a test point in a circuit and amplify or attenuate the voltage at that point. The subsequent signal path depends on the oscilloscope, but in general, analog circuits condition the signal and analog-to-digital converters digitize it for further evaluation, processing, and analysis. ,
