...4.2 INSTRUMENTATION 4.2.1 OSCILLOSCOPE A mixed signal digital Oscilloscope (Figure 4.5) was used to record the signals from accelerometer, laser vibrometer, strain gage and impulse hammer. It shows the wave shape of the electric signals in time voltage scale. This allows the measurement of, for example, peak-to-peak voltage of a waveform, the frequency of periodic signals, the time between pulses, the time taken for a signal to rise to full amplitude (rise time), and relative timing of several related signals. The specifications of the oscilloscope are in Table 4.1[1]. Figure 4.5 YOKOGAWA DLM2022 Oscilloscope Table 4.1 Specifications of YOKOGAWA DLM2022 Oscilloscope Name...

...Chapter 3 Digital storage oscilloscope 3.1 Introduction Digital Storage Oscilloscope DSO built by Philip Cupitt . A standard oscilloscope displays variations in a voltage over time. A simple oscilloscope is of limited use for non-repeating signals .A storage scope is more advantageous as it stores the data related to signal Which can be displayed at any time. Because the screen is not continuously refreshed with the current state of the signal the scope can be used to analyze non-repeating signals. Both analogue storage and digital storage scopes are available, but digital storage are of greater use. Standard oscilloscopes use an electron beam, which is swept across a phosphor screen, the vertical deflection of the beam being proportional...

...generating a ramp voltage. You can do this by placing a fixed voltage at VS that forces a constant current through R1. The capacitor then integrates this current creating a ramping voltage. The action is just like a garden hose running water at a constant rate causing the level in a bucket to rise steadily. The smaller the diameter bucket (smaller capacitor), the faster the increase in water level (greater voltage). The switch is needed to discharge the capacitor (empty the bucket) at the end of a ramping cycle. 6.3 Multisim Circuits PART 1: Simple Integrator PART 2: Integrator with Current 6.4 Procedures Part 1: Simple Integrator a) Apply a square wave at Vi at 1Vpp b) Set f = 100Hz c) Note the waveforms through an oscilloscope d)...

...impedance and the coupling capacitor, should not cut off any given input signal frequencies in the FET. Procedure During voltage biasing, The DC voltage needs to be set at the requisite bias point. This is achieved by the use of the coupling capacitor’s biasing network. Here the source is common to both the output and input voltages and this is referred to as common source amplifier. The gate voltage and the input voltage are in direct proportion whereby an increase in input voltage causes a corresponding increase in gate voltage. The same relationship exists between the drain current and input voltage. However, the output voltage is in indirect proportion with the input voltage. Apparatus Transistor (2N7000) Resistor Capacitor Oscilloscope Multimeter Breadboard (with crocodile clip ends) Diagram; This is how a generalized Field Effect transistor looks like; The transconductance of a FET is given by, gm=Id/Vgs Rearranging this equation gives; Id=gm*Vgs ...........(1) From the above equation, it can be concluded that the...

...10 Technology used by Medical Technologist 1. Description: A centrifuge is a piece of equipment that puts an object in rotation around a fixed axis (spins it in a circle), applying a potentially strong force perpendicular to the axis of spin (outward). The centrifuge works using the sedimentation principle, where the centripetal acceleration causes denser substances and particles to move outward in the radial direction. At the same time, objects that are less dense are displaced and move to the center. In a laboratory centrifuge that uses sample tubes, the radial acceleration causes denser particles to settle to the bottom of the tube, while low-density substances rise to the top.[1] There are 3 types of centrifuge designed for different applications. Industrial scale centrifuges are commonly used in manufacturing and waste processing to sediment suspended solids, or to separate immiscible liquids. An example is the cream separator found in dairies. Very high speed centrifuges and ultracentrifuges able to provide very high accelerations can separate fine particles down to the nano-scale, and molecules of different masses. Large centrifuges are used to simulate high gravity or acceleration environments (for example, high-G training for test pilots). Medium-sized centrifuges are used in washing machines and at some swimming pools to wring water out of fabrics. Gas centrifuges are used for isotope separation, such as to enrich nuclear fuelfor fissile isotopes. From: https://en...

This lab is a group activity. The current group assignments are given here. One lab report per group needs to be turned in on D2L. The responsibilites for the successful completion of the lab consist of three parts: The prelab, the actual lab measurements, and the writing of the report. The report will be graded according to three criteria: Correctness, completion, and clarity. On the cover page you must clearly state which group member had the main responsibility for the prelab, for the lab measurements, and for the report writing. All group members need to be knowledgeable for all three parts, but each member has a specific role in the group. The responsibilities must be rotated for future labs so that each group member will have experienced all three roles. Prelab An inductor is a passive device that can store energy in its magnetic field. Two examples of inductors (solenoid on the left, toroid on the right) are shown in the figure below.

THEORY The biasing of a transistor is purely a dc operation. The purpose of biasing is to establish a Q-point about which variations in current and voltage can occur in response to an ac input signal. In applications where small signal voltages must be amplified— such as from an antenna or a microphone—variations about the Q-point are relatively small. Amplifiers designed to handle these small ac signals are often referred to as small-signal amplifiers. Three amplifier configurations are the common-emitter, the common-base, and the common-collector. The common-emitter (CE) configuration has the emitter as the common terminal, or ground, to an ac signal. CE amplifiers exhibit high voltage gain and high current gain. * common-emitter amplifier with voltage-divider bias and coupling capacitors C1 and C3 on the input and output and a bypass...

Switch ‘On’ the trainer's power supply & Oscilloscope. 5. Observe the Transmitter Output (TP20) along with CH0 input (TP11) for reference with the aid of oscilloscope. Use Transmitter's CH0 Input for external triggering of oscilloscope. This will help to achieve a stable waveform. The Transmitter Circuit samples all channels at different time intervals. The time division multiplexed samples appear at the Transmitter Output. (TP20). Vary the amplitude of the input sine-waves by varying the potentiometers in the Function Generator block. This will help in identifying which sample belongs to which input channel. Ensure all the potentiometer in the Function Generator block is turned fully clockwise before continuing with the exercise.

...Summary This report was aimed to get a better grasp/understanding of multiple measuring devices that are ideal in measuring current, voltage, and resistance. For this lab in particular, we used the Digital Multimeter, Function Generator, and a Oscilloscope to measure the variations of the components we made on the given breadboard. So essentially, after we made the circuit as instructed, we tested the in’s and out’s to calculate the resistance, and currents across the board. Before the board was made, we had to measure the resistors that were giving to us to verify its resistance. After all calculations were done, we took note on actual and theoretical values implemented by the circuit. Most of the lab consisted of measuring specific values with the various machines in the lab. After we calculated the resistance and currents that passed through the circuit we built, we moved forward with the lab, inevitably, giving us the chance to see how sinusoids can be formed, altered, and measured on the Oscilloscope. While completing the lab, we realized the Oscilloscope was quite useful in verifying sinusoids and their measurements while playing with the voltage and etc. Honestly, all the equipment in the lab was quite useful when used correctly. After documenting the information, it was quite apparent the actual data is slightly different from the theoretical values. This is ideally so because there is human error in calculating current, resistances, and power delivered. ...
