Capturing and Viewing Complex
Signals with MegaZoom Technology
Viewing deep memory acquisitions on oscilloscopes often result in slow
waveform update rates. Agilent’s MegaZoom technology automatically turns
on deep memory when needed to maximize resolution, while also
maintaining responsive waveform update rates. In addition, Agilent’s
MegaZoom technology provides the highest waveform display resolution in
the industry with up to 256 levels of intensity to show subtle waveform
details. In this lab, we will capture a complex video waveform. We will then
use various techniques to zoom-in and analyze the deep memory acquisition
results.
Setup
1 Connect the demo kit’s 40-pin ribbon cable from the back of the Agilent
InfiniiVision Series oscilloscope to the 40-pin connector on the demo
board.
2 Connect channel 1 probe to the CH1 test point and ground (GND).
3 Connect channel 2 probe to the CH2 test point and ground (GND).
4 Set the rotary switch on the demo board for the Video signal (Mode #0).
5 Press [Default Setup].
The oscilloscope is now set in the
factory default configuration – just as
it left the factory. Because the
oscilloscope may have been used in a
variety of applications by a variety of
people, it is a good practice to put the
oscilloscope in a known beginning
setup state (Default Setup). This will
make it easier to duplicate measurements for our labs because no special
conditions will be set.
6 Set the channel 1 vertical scale to 500 mV/div using the large yellow
knob.
