INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL OSCILLOSCOPE
OBJECTIVE:
Analyze an analog signal using features of digital oscilloscope and function gen-
erator.
APPARATUS:
Digital oscilloscope with probes
Function generator and its probes
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND:
FUNCTION GENERATOR:
It is electronic test equipment that is used to generate electrical waveform that
may be square waveform, sine wave or triangular waveform consists of variable
frequencies. For displaying the wave and to measure the amplitude, we use oscil-
loscope.
OSCILLOSCOPE:
An oscilloscope is a type of electronic test equipment that allows signal voltages
to be viewed. The oscilloscope that we are followingin our lab is digital storage
oscilloscope GDS-800 series with following features.
Up to 250 MHz repetitive bandwidth.
Up to 10ns peak detection.
Two input channels.
Auto setting for quick setup.
FFT spectrum analysis.
GDS-800 series digital storage oscilloscope has been designed for a wide number
of applications in services and industry. Forsimplicity of operation the ‘Auto set’
function allows for signal related automatic setup of measuring parameters.
On screen, readout and cursor functions provide operational convenience for
measuring voltage, frequencies and other measurements.

AUTOSET:
The “Autoset” function provides a stable triggering display of any input signal.
One can connect a signal to either the channel 1 or channel 2 input connectors
and press AUTOSET button. You will observe its default functions.
CURSORS:
Cursors are a powerful feature of oscilloscope which allows you to take accurate
measurements along horizontal and vertical axes.
1. Press “Cursors” hard key and you will see the waveform.
2. Use Vertical Cursors to measure the time period of the waveform.
3. Use Horizontal Cursors to measure the peak-to-peak value of the waveform
and note your readings is space provided below.
T1 = V1 =
T2 = V2 =
Time Period = Frequency = Vpp =
MEASURE:
Our Oscilloscope has another powerful feature ‘Measure‘allowing us to measure
the commonly used parameters of signals automatically. We just need to reach
that value on Menu and note down its value.
1. Press ‘Measure’hard key from the front panel.
2. In the soft menu for measure you will see something like

OBJECTIVE:
Recognize Amplitude Modulated waveform using Analog Modulation
(AM) Trainer IT-4101.
a) Over modulated.
b) Ideal modulated.
c) Under modulated.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
MODULATION:
Modulation is a process where a “carrier wave” is systematically altered (in am-
plitude or frequency or phase or any combination of them) in correspondence
with the variation of a modulating signal called the message signal to transmit
over a long distance. Now, the resulting modulated signal will carry the message
information in its amplitude or frequency or phase or any combination of them.
With the help of modulation, we can communicate over long distances without
increasing antenna size. We can send a radio frequency (RF) signal between two
antennas, one at the transmitting end and the other at the receiving end.
AMPLITUDE MODULATION:
Amplitude modulation is defined as the process in which the amplitude of the
carrier wave varied about a means values linearly with the base band signal. The
envelope of the modulating wave has the same shape as the base band signal. In
order to observe the amplitude modulated wave form, we are using the Analog
Trainer.
MODULATION INDEX:
Modulation index indicates how much the carrier's amplitude can change due to
modulation. It can be determine using following formula
Vmax Vmin
Percent modulation index 100
Vmax Vmin

AMPLITUDE DEMODULATION
OBJECTIVE:

transmitter trainer IT-4101 and AM DSB/SSB receiver trainer IT-4102.
2. To draw the modulation waveforms of an AM signal for:
g) Over modulated.
h) Ideal modulated.
i) Under modulated.
3. To perform the demodulation for:
a) Over modulated
b) Ideal modulated
c) Under modulated
4. To measure the parameters of AM demodulated waveform.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
DEMODULATION:
Demodulation is the reverse process of modulation. The process of detection pro-
vides a means of recovering the modulating Signal from modulated signal. The
detector circuit is employed to separate the carrier wave and eliminate the side
bands. Since the envelope of an AM wave has the same shape as the message, in-
dependent of the carrier frequency.
If the input signal of the diode detector is the under modulated AM signal,as
shown in figure 3.1, Then we are able to recover the distorted signal to the audio
signal (or message signal) by the diode detector.
Page 13
Communication System (TE-336) SSUET/QR/114
If the input signal of the diode detector is the over modulated AM signal, as
shown in figure 3.2. Then we are unable to recover the distorted signal to the
audio signal (or message signal) by the diode detector.

OBJECTIVE:
Operation of quadrature detector by reactance modulator
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
This is another demodulator, again fairly simple but is an improvement over the
previous design. It causes less distortion and is also better, though not perfect
when it comes to removing any superimposed noise. The incoming signal is
passed through a place shifting circuit. The degree or phase shift that occurs is
determined by the exact frequency of the signal at any particular instant. The rule
of the degree of phase shift are:
1. If the carrier is un-modulated, the phase shift is 90˚.
2. If the carrier increase in frequency the phase shift is less than 90˚.
3. If the carrier decreases in frequency the phase shift is greater than 90˚.
We now only require a circuit able to detect the changes in the phase of the sig-
nal.
This circuit compare the phase of original input signal with the output of the
phase the comparison according to the following rules
1. It provide no change in output voltage if the signal phase has been shifted to
90˚.
2. Phase over 90˚ result in a decreased DC voltage level.
3. Phase less than 90˚ result is an increased DC voltage level.
Page 32
Communication System (TE-336) SSUET/QR/114
As the phase change the DC voltage level move up and down and re-create the
audio signals.
A low pass filter is include to reduce the amplitude of any high frequency ripple
and block the DC offset, consequently the signal at the output closely resemble
the original signal.

OBJECTIVE:
Frequency demodulation using phase-locked loop detector by Varactor
Modulator.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
This is another demodulator that employs a phase comparator circuit. It is a very
good demodulator and has the advantage that it is available, as a self-contained
integrated circuit so there is no setting up required. You plug it in and it works.
For these reasons, it is often used in commercial broadcast receivers. It has very
low levels of distortion and is almost immune from external noise and provides
very low levels of distortion.
The DC output voltage from the output if the low pass filter controls the frequen-
cy of this oscillator. Now this DC voltage keeps the oscillator running at the same
frequency as the original input signal and 90 degree out of phase. And if we did,
then why not just add a phase shifting circuit at the input to give the 90 degree
phase shift? The answer can be seen by imagining what happens when the input
frequency changes- as it would with a FM signal. If the input frequency increases
and decreases, the VCO frequency is made to follow it. These changes in the DC
voltage level from the demodulated signal. The signal then passes through a low
pass filter to smooth the output and then through an AC amplifier.

To uses a double-tuned RF transformer to convert frequency variation in the re-
ceived FM signal to amplitude variation. These amplitude variations are then rec-
tified and filtered to provide a dc O/P voltage. This voltage varies in both ampli-
tude and polarity as the input signal varies in frequency. A typical discriminator
response curve is shown in Figure. The output voltage is 0 when the input fre-
quency is equal to the carrier frequency (fr). When the input frequency rises
above the center frequency, the output increases in the positive direction. When
the input frequency drops below the center frequency, the output increases in the
negative direction.

CONCLUSION:
OBJECTIVE:
Perform Time Division Multiplexing through TDM Trainer IT-4202.
Observe the Time Division Multiplexing at different sampling rate.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND:
Multiplexing:
Multiplexing is the process of combining signals from different information so
that they can be transmitted over a common channel. Multiplexing is advanta-
geous in cases where it is impracticable and uneconomical to provide separate
links for the different information sources. The price that has to be paid to acquire
this advantage is in the form of increased system complexity and bandwidth.
The most commonly used methods of multiplexing are:
1. Frequency division multiplexing (FDM)
2. Time division multiplexing (TDM)
Frequency division multiplexing:
Frequency division multiplexing is the process of combining several information
channels by shifting their signals to different frequency groups within the fre-
quency spectrum so that they can all be transmitted over a common transmitted
channel.
Time division multiplexing:
Time division multiplexing is the process of combining the samples from differ-
ent information signals, in time domain so that they can be transmitted over the
same channel. The fact utilized in (TDM) technique is that there are large inter-
vals between the messages samples. The samples from the other sources can be
placed within these time intervals. Thus every sample is separated from other in
time domain. The time division multiplexing system can be stimulated by two ro-

tating switches, one at transmitter and other at receiver see figure. The two wipers
rotate and establish electrical contact with one channel at a time.

CONCLUSION:
OBJECTIVE:
Voice transmission using Pulse Amplitude Modulation and Demodulation.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
DEMODULATION:
Demodulation is the process of recovering original signal from modulated signal
wave. It can be achieved by simply pass the modulated signal from a low pass fil-
ter.
After demodulation, the received signal’s amplitude became so weak. Audio am-
plifier is then use to make signal audible and processible.

OBJECTIVE:
FSK modulation by generating FSK signal using IT-4206 Trainer Board.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
FSK is a type of frequency modulation (FM). The FSK modulator generates a
carrier signalthat changes in frequency. The modulating signal controls the output
frequency. Unlike analog FM, FSK uses a digital modulating signal. The FSK
carrier signal is switched between two specific frequencies by the digital modu-
lating signal.
The carrier frequencies used to represent the digital states are selected to be com-
patible with the intended channel's pass band. Satellite transmissions typically
use microwave carrier signals at frequencies above 1 gigahertz. Phone transmis-
sion uses audio carrier signals at frequencies between 300 Hz and 3 kHz.

OBJECTIVE:
Phase shift Keyin (PSK) modulation by generating FSK signal using IT-4206
Trainer Board.
THEORITICAL BACKGROUND
Phase shift keying (PSK) is a form of modulation in which the phase of the carri-
er signal shifts each time the digital intelligence signal changes state.
In PSK the amplitude of the carrier remains constant. To generate a binary PSK
signal, we have to represent the input binary sequence in polar form with symbols
1 and 0 represented by constant amplitude levels. This signal transmission encod-
ing is performed by a polar non return – to – zero (NRZ) level encoder. The re-
sulting binary wave and a sinusoidal carrier are applied to a product modulator,
The carrier and the pulses used to generate the binary wave (PSK) is at the modu-
lat
or

put
.
The above figure shows just after the NRZ signal switches from high to low, the
PSK signal at 0 and in phase with the carrier signal.
Page 69
Communication System (TE-336) SSUET/QR/114
This above figure shows how the intelligence signal is PSK-modulated on your
circuit board. The digital input signal has logic levels of 0V and +5V. A level
shifter changes the logic levels to - 5V and +5V. The dc-offset signal is then mul-
tiplied with the carrier signal in a balanced modulator to produce the PSK signal.
