STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

Sl. No. Nomenclature Description

Cathode Ray Oscilloscope

Name of the
01
Equipment

The equipment is visual instruments used to measure various

02 Introduction
signal parameters.
1. AC Votage Measurements
2. DC Voltage Measurements
03 Purpose 3. Time Measurements
4. Phase Shift Measurements
5. Genration Of Lissajous Patterns:
1. Collect the equipments and components for the experiment
from Lab In-charge with proper entry in Issue/Return
register.
2. Make a circuit connection on a breadboard as per the
circuit diagrams.
3. To measure the ac / dc voltage. The input signal is applied
from the signal generator / outlet of circuit/ dc power
supply to a channel of CRO.
4. The voltage/div switch (Y-plates) and time base switch (X-
plates) are adjusted such that a steady picture of the
Operating
04 Procedure of waveform is obtained on the screen.
Equipment
5. For amplitude measurement, the height of the signal is
measured in vertical axis and multiply with magnitude
division factor.
6. For time measurement, the distance between successive
peak of the signals is measured in horizontal axis and
multiply with time division factor, then calculate the
frequency.
7. Note down the observation in laboratory record note book as
 per the aim of experiments.

1. Experiment table should be clean and should not be

surrounded with any other unwanted materials.
2. As the experiment deals with heaver components handle all
items carefully.
3. Utmost care should be taken in handling the CRO
05 Safety Precautions instruments.
4. Apply the proper operating voltage and input signal voltage
as per the specification of components used in a circuit.
5. Hold the plug with fingers on the outside of the plug and away
from the pins.
6. Must wear shoe and tuck in shirts to avoid electrical shock
1. The instruments for experiment collected from Lab In-
charge are to be returned with proper entry in Issue/Return
After Completion register.
06
of Experiment
2. The experiment table and the equipment used should be
cleaned for any unwanted materials.
