Multimeter & Oscilloscopes

Technical Characteristics

Input sensitivity This is the minimum voltage range that can be displayed on the screen, therefore if the signal oscillates under this value, it cannot be displayed (usually between 2 mV and 100 mV per division). Number of channels In the automotive sector, a minimum of two channels are required although four is ideal. Scopes with several channels, the quantity and type of analogue/digital converter used can influence the sampling rate when several channels at the same time are used. Maximum input voltage is the maximum input voltage that should enter through the oscilloscope channel in order not to damage it. The use of an inserted accessory is required to avoid this problem.

Horizontal scale gives the minimum and maximum time that can be displayed on the same screen.
