They are... 1.2 They are used to measure .. 1.3 Notice the indicating dial , which indicates the value of measured quantity . These quantities are... 1.4 Initially appropriate should be selected. 1.5 Look at the indicating dial and notice the different 1.6 Those scales are.. ~ As an example , if we want to measure a value less than DC 10V, first we have to select quantity DCV, then range 10V and then scale 0-10. Hence directly the value can be read, If some value cannot be measured by using a direct scale, use any other scale as appropriately. 1.7 Write down some ranges of the multimeter and the scales to be used. ‘Quantity Symbol Range Scale DCV ACV ” De mAA Page- 02 Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University1.8 There are two leads which are used with the multimeter. Normally on is black and fix to .Socket. The other is red colour and fix to socket. 1.9 But when measuring the resistance, we consider red socket is black socket is . EXPERIMENT 2: REGULATED POWER SUPPLY 2.1 It gives out. voltage. 2.2 It has two different power sources ,. can be used in three different modes, which 2.3 In each source there are three different output terminals which are marked as and... 2.4 1: we want to supply 10V to a circuit, we can get i through .. .. terminals ofa source when two sources are n independent mode. 2.5 We can adjust the voltage before applying to the circuit by using the voltage varying knob. The maximum voltage that can be taken from the regulated power supply is, 2.6 There is also a fixed power source which gives out. EXPERIMENT 3: SIGNAL GENERATOR /FUNCTION GENERATOR and 3.1 There are two main types of Signal generators. They are ..signals which different 3.2 In digital signal generator, it produces ... frequencies. 3.3 Notice the three different shapes of wave forms. They are Page- 03 Department of Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University3.4 To generate a signal , there should be a particular frequency an amplitude (voltage). To select the frequency, there are frequency range sclector buttons. They are and ‘There is also a frequency dial for fine adjustments of frequencies. 3.5 To select the amplitude (peak voltage), there is an amplitude selector dial named. 3.6 There are two output terminals in the function generator, one is main output terminal which has ...........- output impedance, which is used to take any signal required by the user and the other is TTLICMOS output. EXPERIMENT 4 : THE DOUBLE BEAM CATHODE RAY OSCILLOSCOPE (CRO) 4.1 This instrument is basically used to observe wave pattems or signals. Before taking any observation, CRO should be calibrated. The peak to peak voltage (Vp) of the calibration signal is .. .and frequency is The .alibration signal is a.. wave. 4.2 There are two channels named ... use CRO to observe. Purpose. ‘Two signals separately Both signals at the same time . . Therefore we can Addition of both signals .em divisions on the screen, Each division is divided cm. 43. There are .......0m x into 5 parts . Hence , I part= 4.4 In CH | and CH 2, there are VOLT/DIV rotary knobs. By the indicator in the rotary knob, it represents how many volts are represented by one division. 4.5 The vertical axis in the screen is considered as . and the horizonta’ axis is as Page- 04 Department of Electrical , Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University4.6 Note that AC, DC and GND buttons. In AC mode, the. component of the wave form is blocked, in DC mode , both ... and ., components of the wave form are shown. In GND mode, the input signal is short circuited and ground signal is applied to CRO. 4.7 Notice that TIME/DIV rotary knob. It is common for both channels. By using it the time period of the wave form can be measured. 4.8 Notice the VERTICAL POSITON (1). We can move the wave form. Notice HORIZONATAL POSITON (+) we can move the, wave form. 4.9 Obtain the following signals from the function generator and display them on the CRO screen. (a) 2V peak with frequency 1 kHz (b) 10 V peak with frequency 20 kHz .ViDiv Page- 0S Department of Electrical , Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University
