    A Tektronix model 475A portable analog oscilloscope, a typical instrument of the late 1970s Oscilloscope cathode-ray tube, the left square-shaped end would be the blue screen in the upper device when built in. Typical display of an analog oscilloscope measuring a sine wave signal with 10 kHz. From the grid inherent to the screen together with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscilloscope_types

    A dual-beam oscilloscope was a type of oscilloscope once used to compare one signal with another. There were two beams produced in a special type of CRT . Unlike an ordinary "dual-trace" oscilloscope (which time-shared a single electron beam, thus losing about 50% of each signal), a dual-beam oscilloscope simultaneously produced two separate ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_oscilloscope

    A hand held oscilloscope is usually a real-time oscilloscope, using a monochrome or color liquid crystal display for its display. Due to the rise in the prevalence of PCs, PC-based oscilloscopes have been becoming more common. The PC platform can be part of a standalone oscilloscope or as a standalone PC in combination with an external ...

    A measuring instrument for radio waves: the 64-meter radio telescope at Parkes Observatory, Australia, as seen in 1969, when it was used to receive live televised video from Apollo 11 Considerations related to electric charge dominate electricity and electronics .

  6. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

    Seen with an oscilloscope, the domestic power supply in North America would look like a sine wave, oscillating between −170 volts and 170 volts, giving an effective voltage of 120 volts RMS. [18] Three-phase electric power is more efficient in terms of power delivered per cable used, and is more suited to running large electric motors. Some ...

    Tektronix 7854 oscilloscope with curve tracer and time-domain reflectometer plug-ins. Lower module is a mainframe of the series Tektronix TM500 and has a digital voltmeter, a digital counter, an old WWVB frequency standard receiver with phase comparator, and function generator.

  8. Test probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_probe

    Typical passive oscilloscope probe being used to test an integrated circuit. A test probe is a physical device used to connect electronic test equipment to a device under test (DUT). Test probes range from very simple, robust devices to complex probes that are sophisticated, expensive, and fragile.

    A Tektronix 465 portable analog oscilloscope is a typical instrument of the late 1970s. In the 1960s Tektronix introduced the relatively compact 450 series of portable oscilloscopes, starting with the 50 MHz 453. The 453 was superseded by the 454. There was also a 422 15 MHz AC/DC portable made. [1]
