Table of contents:
Advances in electronics over recent years have brought some quite advanced pieces of test equipment within the scope of many electronics hobbyists. Whether building your own or buying ready-made equipment, you no longer need to be a millionaire in order to afford signal generators, digital measuring equipment, or an oscilloscope having a fair specification! But how do you set about using such equipment? Some items of test gear are very simple in use, such as an auto-ranging digital capacitance meter. You just connect the capacitor & its value is displayed. Not all test equipment is this simple though, & oscilloscopes in particular tend to have vast numbers of knobs & switches.
These can be a bit daunting for the uninitiated, but mastering a workshop oscilloscope is not really too difficult. This book explains the basic function of an oscilloscope, gives a detailed explanation of all the standard controls, & provides advice on buying an oscilloscope. A seperate chapter deals with using an oscilloscope for fault finding on linear & logic circuits. Plenty of example waveforms help to illustrate the control functions & the effects of various other pieces of test equipment are also covered, including signal generators, logic probes, logic pulsers, & crystal calibrators.
