    Cathode Ray Oscilloscope

    Uploaded by

    Gaurav Sharma
    The document describes the key components and functions of a cathode ray oscilloscope. It discusses the electron gun, evacuated tube, deflecting system, time base, and trigger circuit that work together to generate and control the electron beam. The oscilloscope can be used as a voltmeter to measure voltage over time, display signal waveforms, measure short time intervals and frequencies, and analyze phase relationships between signals.
