oscilloscope (sh) and slot(6) (iou)


oscilloscope (sh)




or cathode-ray oscilloscope

Electronic display device used to produce patterns on a screen that are the graphical representations of electrical signals.

Time is normally on the horizontal axis, and a function of the voltage generated by the input signal to the oscilloscope on the vertical axis; four or more plots can be simultaneously shown. Because almost any physical phenomenon can be converted into a corresponding electric voltage, oscilloscopes find commercial, engineering, and scientific applications in acoustic research, Television-production engineering, and electronics design.
