Oscilloscope art is a fascinating pursuit in which waveforms are generated for the X an Y channels of an oscilloscope to draw pictures on its screen. It’s somewhat distinct from vector computer ...

Making an oscilloscope is relatively easy, while making a very fast oscilloscope is hard. There’s a trick that converts a mundane instrument into a very fast one, it’s been around since the 1950s, and ...

Oscilloscopes provide critical signal visibility for debugging, testing, and ensuring that electronic systems match developers’ imaginations. Specifying when the oscilloscope captures information ...

Oscilloscope Laboratories has acquired “John Lilly and the Earth Coincidence Control Office,” a documentary about a daring neurophysiologist and "psychonaut” known for his investigations into dolphins ...

When designing space electronics, particularly during the early prototyping stage or if qualification or flight hardware doesn’t function as intended, the humble oscilloscope is often used to verify ...

An oscilloscope and a device under test (DUT) constitute a de-facto system. In it, the most overlooked element is the interface between the two: the oscilloscope’s probes. Test personnel simply grab ...

Jerobeam Fenderson’s magic mushrooms will make you trip. But you don't have to eat these fungi to get their mesmerizing effects---just watch, and let them dance and multiply in front of you. Look, I’m ...

Over the last year, I have been working myself into the world of makers. I have generally focused on building electronics projects because I understand electronics and make use of that knowledge ...

Figure 1: The silicon-based ultrafast optical oscilloscope. The pump-pulse bandwidth and the length of the dispersive path determine the record length and resolution of the oscilloscope. The ...

Welcome to the Oscilloscope Triggering Advanced Course! In this series, I will walk you through the details of every corner of real-time oscilloscope trigger systems, and by the time we’re done, ...
