• What is the Use of a Digital Oscilloscope?

• An Oscilloscope is an electronic instrument
  that can display the changes in signal voltages
  graphically.  It is used to display, store,
  process, analyze, and capture the bandwidth and
  waveform of the signals. Based on the type of
  signal, oscilloscopes can be classified into two
  types. These are analog oscilloscopes and digital
  oscilloscopes. Scientific Suppliers offer
  high-precision oscilloscopes to
  industries, Engineering Colleges, laboratories,
  and so on.

• What is Digital Oscilloscope?

• It is an electronic device that can store and
  analyze the signal in a digital format. When the
  input signal is supplied to this device, it is
  processed and stored in the memory. Then it is
  displayed on the screen. The data is stored in a
  digital format, which is the representation in
  the form of two digits, 1 and 0.

• Since it uses digital processing methods, the
  accuracy and reliability of the digital storage
  oscilloscope are much higher. 

• Professional applications that make use of
  this equipment are medical research labs,
  automotive machines, physicists, repair
  technicians, and so on. They have replaced analog
  oscillometers and they are the most commonly
  found oscillometers.

• What are the Applications of Digital
  Oscilloscope?

• They are used for analyzing the operating
  properties of circuits. Also, they can measure
  line-power harmonics and power conversion devices
  like regulators and transformers. To perform
  power analysis, you need different amplifier
  probes. By using specialized software, data
  analysis can become fast and simple.

• Another popular use of them is in serial data
  analysis. They can be used in representing and
  analyzing different data formats such as
  Bluetooth, SCSI, FireWire, Ethernet, and USB.

• Nowadays, they are being used in an important
  application. It is a jitter analysis. They are
  very fast and run at a high clock speed.
  Therefore, they are useful in specialized
  clocking applications. It is easy to represent,
  analyze, and debug signal timing and jitter.

• Another important use is in storage device
  testing.  It is possible to assess disk
  performance. optical recording characteristics,
  and media noise. Disk drive design can assess
  various parameters.

• Another important use is in TDR, which can be
  used for measuring impedance values and
  variations.  Thus, it is easy to find faults
  along microstrips or on cable connectors.
