00:00:00,433 --> 00:00:04,300

Hello everyone, today we will learn about the main parameters of the oscilloscope

2

00:00:08,433 --> 00:00:12,500

The main parameters of the oscilloscope include the bandwidth of the oscilloscope,

3

00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,166

the refresh rate, and the sample rate

4

00:00:16,766 --> 00:00:19,566

Here are the three key parameters we need to focus on

5

00:00:24,866 --> 00:00:31,566

When we buy an oscilloscope, we must choose the oscilloscope that suits us

6

00:00:32,966 --> 00:00:36,300

One of the things we're more concerned about is the bandwidth

7

00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:43,200

Bandwidth refers to the maximum frequency that the oscilloscope can measure,

8

00:00:43,433 --> 00:00:45,766

but there is also a certain degree of error

9

00:00:46,933 --> 00:00:54,133

For example, there are 50M bandwidth, 100M bandwidth, 200M bandwidth, etc.

10

00:00:56,966 --> 00:00:58,800

We are engaged in computer maintenance,

11

00:00:59,033 --> 00:01:04,500

and an oscilloscope with a bandwidth of 100M to 200M is basically enough

12

00:01:09,433 --> 00:01:10,933

The second is the refresh rate,

13

00:01:11,433 --> 00:01:13,600

which is also a very important parameter

14

00:01:16,266 --> 00:01:17,933

What does refresh rate mean?

15

00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:23,833

The higher the refresh rate, the less dead time it has, the waveform is not easy to be distorted,

16

00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,233

and the original waveform can be restored to the greatest extent

17

00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:40,166

An oscilloscope with a high refresh rate has more sampling times

18

00:01:40,966 --> 00:01:46,066

An oscilloscope with a low refresh rate has less sampling times and has a large dead time

19

00:01:49,166 --> 00:01:51,633

Another important parameter is the sample rate

20

00:01:56,833 --> 00:02:00,433

For example, when it is collecting this section of waveform,

21

00:02:01,100 --> 00:02:03,100

is the collected waveform original?

22

00:02:04,233 --> 00:02:09,866

It depends on whether it has enough sampling points, that is, whether the sample rate is high enough

23

00:02:10,500 --> 00:02:11,766

What is sample rate?

24

00:02:12,933 --> 00:02:15,900

For example, the red one is the original waveform,

25

00:02:17,133 --> 00:02:19,066

and the blue one is the sampling point

26

00:02:21,866 --> 00:02:26,600

Collect this place once, collect here, and collect again here

27

00:02:27,300 --> 00:02:31,766

Connecting the waveforms collected by these sampling points is the green waveform,

28

00:02:33,733 --> 00:02:35,933

which is the waveform displayed on the screen

29

00:02:38,733 --> 00:02:43,100

In this case, it is still a little different from the original waveform,

30

00:02:44,433 --> 00:02:46,700

because its sampling points are not enough

31

00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:49,233

If the sampling points are very dense,

32

00:02:49,366 --> 00:02:52,133

the waveform can be restored to the greatest extent

33

00:02:53,166 --> 00:02:55,700

You can see that there are still missing parts here,

34

00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,866

because there are not enough sampling points, that is, the sample rate is not high enough

35

00:03:01,433 --> 00:03:04,900

If the sample rate is high, this part can be captured

36

00:03:07,466 --> 00:03:09,333

This is called the sample rate

37

00:03:10,366 --> 00:03:15,533

From signal input to waveform display, if the processing speed is not fast enough,

38

00:03:16,866 --> 00:03:20,166

a large number of dead zones and delays will be generated

39

00:03:22,766 --> 00:03:25,533

What is displayed on the screen is a digital signal,

40

00:03:26,733 --> 00:03:31,633

which is converted into a digital display signal by the microprocessor and displayed on the screen

41

00:03:37,166 --> 00:03:40,200

The waveform collected by the probe is an analog signal

42

00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,733

Therefore, there will be analog and digital conversion in the middle

43

00:03:46,133 --> 00:03:50,200

It is necessary to convert the collected analog signal into a digital signal,

44

00:03:50,566 --> 00:03:52,600

process it, and then display it

45

00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:56,266

These are the main parameters of the oscilloscope
