+ When resistor R0 and element Z are in series with each other and connected into an AC
source (Figure 2), the current through R0 and Z is the same. The current and the voltage on R0 are in
phase with each other. If the current in the circuit is i = I0sinωt, the voltage on the resistor R0 is
connected to input CH1 of the oscilloscope (ie X input) is:
uX = R0I0sinωt is in phase with the current i.
The voltage on Z element is connected to input CH2 (ie Y input):
uY= UZ0sin(ωt +ϕ) is out of phase ϕ with the current i through Z
Therefore on the oscilloscope, we obtain the sum of two oscillators on 2 perpendicular axes
with the phase difference ϕ, which is the phase difference between the current and the voltage on Z.
a. If the element Z is the resistor RX.
+ Sigal input to X channe is uX = I0.R0.sinωt
+ Sigal input to Y channel is uY = I0.RX.sinωt
These two signals are in phase, the Lissajou on the oscilloscope is a straigt line. If the
amplitudes are equal, we obtain a straight line at an angle to the axis of coordinates by 45o.
At this condition : R0 = RX.
b. If the element Z is the capacitor with capacitive resistance ZC.
The difference of phase between the current and the voltage is ϕ = 900 (the current leads the
voltage by 900).

The Lissajou appears on the oscilloscope screen as an ellipse. If amplitudes of these two
signals are equal, the ellipse becomes a circle.

At this condition: Zc= R0 we obtain: C = ଶπୖ

c. If the element Z is the inductor with inductive resistance ZL.
The difference of phase between the current and the voltage is 900(the current lags the voltage
by 90o).
