Testing and Measurement Notes - 01

29 August, 2008 (10:55) | Instrumentation | By: delabs

If the waveform on the scope droops then you may need to use a 10X attenuating probe or mode. this attenuator is at the tip of the probe hence better measurement possible, also very high frequency signals may be best transmitted over a 50 ohm impedance matched line to the Oscilloscope. The History of Oscilloscope, [...]

Printer Port Virtual Instrumentation with VB6

12 August, 2008 (14:24) | Data Interface, Instrumentation | By: delabs

The PC is now an economic and common equipment at home or office. To interface it to the real world is a step in learning Automation and Robotics. In Automation we have both Industrial and Home.
Experimenting with Home Automation and Building PC based Instruments is the first step. An Electronics card needs to be interfaced [...]

The indispensable Digital MultiMeter DMM

11 August, 2008 (08:43) | Instrumentation | By: delabs

Moving Coil Voltmeters, Ammeters and Resistance Bridge were combined to make AVO Meters a field instrument. They were used alongside hand cranked meggers, current-potential transformers. Valve based Electronic Instrumentation with Nixie Tube Displays cannot be forgotten, taking readings from nixie tube displays can be more satisfying than reading a plain LCD. The Vacuum Florescent 7 [...]

Utility of Testing and Troubleshooting Tools

10 August, 2008 (12:57) | Instrumentation | By: delabs

Many times we cannot carry big or expensive test instruments to the field, so we have to have a troubleshooting tool kit. Continuity testers, Logic Probes, DMM, Clamp Meters etc.. It also is sometimes required to build a quick jig or fixture with electronics to troubleshoot, simulate a problem or to test the reliability or [...]

Test Measurement and Test jigs

8 August, 2008 (10:14) | Instrumentation | By: delabs

Test Tools are needed for Troubleshooting and Repairing Electronic Gadgets, Equipment, Electrical Panels and Machines. Precision Instruments are required for calibration of field and machine control electronics. These are also required by the R&D engineer for design and development of new products and trying out new concepts. In Production testing, Production Engineering, Quality Assurance QA-QC [...]
