 Introduction

 An oscilloscope, previously called an oscillograph, CRO (for cathode-ray oscilloscope) , is

a type of electronic test instrument that graphically displays varying signal voltages,
usually as a two-dimensional plot of one or more signals as a function of time. Other
signals (such as sound or vibration) can be converted to voltages and displayed.
 Function of CRO

 The CRO stands for a cathode ray oscilloscope. It is typically divided into four sections which are
display, vertical controllers, horizontal controllers, and Triggers.
 Most of the oscilloscopes are used the probes and they are used for the input of any instrument.
We can analyze the waveform by plotting amplitude along with the x-axis and y-axis. The
applications of CRO’s mainly involve in the radio, TV receivers, also in laboratory work involving
research and design.
 In modern electronics, the CRO plays an important role in the electronic circuits

Uses of CRO

In laboratory, the CRO can be used as

 It can display different types of waveforms
 It can measure short time interval
 In voltmeter, it can measure potential difference
 Conclusion
Cathode ray tubes perform one function, which makes them unique as transistors:
They convert an incoming electronic signal into a stream of electrons which is designed
to create a picture by reacting with a substance on a screen. Cathode ray tubes can be
used to display mathematical information, as in the graph created by a heart rate
monitor, or might be used in a monitor to transmit a recorded picture. As an imaging
technology, cathode ray tubes are older but still very cost effective.
