Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A technician needs to capture a signal with oscillation happening at 10 mV. If they use an oscilloscope with a vertical sensitivity of 2 mV/div and the signal is fluctuating, will they effectively catch this signal on the display?
💡 Hint: Refer to how sensitivities work in capturing small signals.
If a new oscilloscope has an impressive 1 mV/div sensitivity but a bandwidth of only 10MHz, why might this not be suitable for high-frequency applications?
💡 Hint: Balance transmission speed and reception details.
