OBJECTIVES

After performing this lab exercise, learner will be able to:
• Program Arduino board to generate signals (like Sine, Square wave or PWM) and use it as a DUT for your experiment
• Capture and display the signal from given Device Under Test (DUT)
• Measure Positive and Negative Overshoot of the capture signal using inbuilt functions of the scope

EQUIPMENT

To carry out this experiment, you will need:
• TBS1KB - Digital Oscilloscope from Tektronix
• Arduino Duemilanve or Uno board
• Voltage probe (provided with oscilloscope) /  BNC cables
• Breadboard and connecting wires
• Simple circuit components – Resistor / capacitors

THEORY

• Amplitude = HIGH – LOW
• Peak-to-Peak amplitude = MAX – MIN
• Positive Overshoot = Maximum deviation from “High” expressed as percentage of nominal signal range (HIGH – LOW)
• Negative Overshoot = Maximum deviation in the lower side, from nominal low value, expressed as percentage of nominal signal range
