A mixed-signal oscilloscope (MSO) combines all the measurement capabilities and the use model of a Digital Storage Oscilloscope with some of the measurement capabilities of a logic analyzer. Analog and digital signals are acquired with a single time base, they are viewed on a single display, and any combination of these signals can be used to ...
The 7D01 and 7D02 were logic analyzer plug ins. The triple-wide 7D20 programmable digitizer with GPIB ($7,750 in 1983) would turn an analog mainframe into a digital scope. The series also had some sampling technology plug ins, and many plug ins of this group used the S-series sampling and pulse generator heads.
A logic analyzer is similar to an oscilloscope, but for each input signal only provides the logic level without the shape of its analog waveform. A mixed-signal oscilloscope (or MSO) meanwhile has two kinds of inputs: a small number of analog channels (typically two or four), and a larger number of logic channels (typically sixteen).
The oscilloscope is designed to accept voltages up to 660Vrms and has a maximum sensitivity of 100 mV/div whilst being able to view voltages at 200 V/div i.e. ± 1000V. The other aspect of the instrument which makes it particularly suitable for power electrical engineering is that it can measure and display phase angles on a digital display.
The BK Precision model 4078 Dual Channel Arbitrary Waveform Generator uses direct digital synthesis to generate waveforms up to 400,000 points HAMEG HMF 2550 digital AWG under an oscilloscope displaying the generated waveform. An arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) is a piece of electronic test equipment used to generate electrical waveforms.
A physical system that exchanges energy may be described by the amount of energy exchanged per time-interval, also called power or flux of energy. (see any measurement device for power below) For the ranges of power-values see: Orders of magnitude (power) .
A signal generator is one of a class of electronic devices that generates electrical signals with set properties of amplitude, frequency, and wave shape. These generated signals are used as a stimulus for electronic measurements, typically used in designing, testing, troubleshooting, and repairing electronic or electroacoustic devices, though it often has artistic uses as well.
To ensure that the instruments negligibly loaded the model system, the machine power level used was substantial. Some workers in the 1920s used three-phase model generators rated up to 600 kVA and 2300 volts to represent a power system. General Electric developed model systems using generators rated at 3.75 kVA. [4]
