REPORT ON SIGNAL ANALYSIS WITH OSCILLOSCOPES – 21 Aug

2024
-Mallinath Ogirala
SE22UMEE014

Aim: To get familiar with oscilloscope by using a function generator to create several signals
and analyze them using the oscilloscope.

Apparatus:
1. Function Generator
2. A Tektronix TBS 1000C Oscilloscope
3. Probes and BNC Cables

PROCEDURE:

1. Setting up the Equipment:

1. Turn on the oscilloscope. Adjust the vertical POSITION knob for channel 1 until
the message at the bottom of the screen reads CH1 vertical position 0.00 divs.

2. Push the CH1 button to keep it on and turn off CH2 signal by using the buttons in
the vertical group.

3. Push the CH 1 MENU button and select Coupling=DC, BW Limit=OFF,


Volts/Div=Coarse, Probe=1X.

2. Analysis of Signals:

a) Adjust the volt/div knob to 1.00V for Channel 1

b) Set the horizontal position knob to 0.00 and SEC/DIV to 500µs.

c) Display the frequency, time-period, peak-to-peak voltage, and cycle RMS for
the waveform.
3) Measurements

a) Engage the -20 dB button the function generator and record the peak-to- peak voltage

b) Calculate the loss in the signal using the formula: dB =-20log10(Vout/Vin)

4. Waveform Observations:

Measure and record signal characteristics for the following waveforms:

a). Sine wave at 7 kHz

b). Triangular wave at 3 kHz

c). Square wave at 4 kHz

5. Noise Analysis:

a) Generate a low amplitude sine wave (100 Hz, 50 mV) and move the BNC cable near a
power cable. Observe the changes in noise.

b) Disconnect the function generator and repeat to observe the noise signal alone.

RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS:

1. Trigger level:
By adjusting the trigger level on the oscilloscope, we can adjust the falling and the rising
edge of the waveform. With this, we can get our preferred signal and reduce the noise.

2. Analysis of the edges:


We can stabilize the signal if it's not stable using the trigger level knob on oscilloscope.
By turning the knob, we can make the signal more readable.
3. Noise observation in AC current:
According to the faraday’s law a current carrying wire induces emf. So, using the BMC
cables, we can capture the noise due to the emf in the AC carrying wires.
4. Values:

Type of wave form Frequency(KHz) RMS(v) Amplitude

Sine(7KHz) 7.04 2.07 3.16


Triangular(3KHz) 3.03 1.68 2.96
Square(4KHz) 4.02 3.02 3.48

Conclusions:

We were able to get familiar with the operating the oscilloscope and how to different types of
outputs like frequency, RMS and amplitude. We understood how to get the sine, triangular and
square plots.
