An oscilloscope with a rise time of 10 ns is used to measure a signal. What is the minimum bandwidth of the oscilloscope and what measurement error might occur?
💡 Hint: Use the formula to calculate the bandwidth and consider general errors associated with bandwidth limitations.
You have two oscilloscopes. One has a bandwidth of 100 MHz and the other 200 MHz. If viewed signals require a 40 ns rise time, which oscilloscope is more appropriate and why?
💡 Hint: Reflect on how the required rise time relates back to the bandwidth of each oscilloscope.
