    Type of signal voltage difference in V . The relationship between the different voltage magnitudes can be seen from the following figure. With the HM 303, most repetitive signals in the frequency range up to at least 30MHz (−3dB) can be examined. Sinewave signals of 50MHz are displayed with a height of approx.

Before applying power to the oscilloscope it is recom- The time resolution poses no problem. For example, with mended that the following simple procedures are 50MHz and the fastest adjustable sweep rate (10ns/div.), performed: one cycle will be displayed every 2div.

When the utilisation of the full bandwidth, together with constant attenuator switches are set to 5mV/div vertical deflection group delay at the high frequency end, thereby reducing coefficient, these calibration voltages correspond to a characteristic transient distortion near the leading edge...
  • Page 14: Operating Modes Of The Y Amplifier

    Operating modes of the vertical amplifiers After completion of the HF-adjustment, the signal amplitude displayed on the CRT screen should have the same value as during the 1kHz adjustment. The vertical amplifier is set to the desired operating mode by using the 3 pushbuttons (CH I/II, DUAL and ADD) in the Y field of the front panel.
