Introduction
• An oscilloscope is a device which measures voltage waves, then
display it on graph that can able you to analyze this waveform.

• Arduino is a microcontroller that can be programmed using a

specific interface called arduino ide.

• An oscilloscope using arduino could be built by programming the

arduino to sense the input signal on a specific analog pin.

Theory Of Operation
• Oscilloscope using arduino is based on programming the arduino
using arduino ide which is a software where we can write a certain
code and upload it on the arduino, and then we connect the
arduino specified pin to the signal to be measured

Circuit analysis
• The circuit is based on connecting the ground of the arduino to the
ground of the input signal and the input signal itself to the specified
analog pin.
• The arduino is dc supplied from the computer.

Simulation
• The simulation used was tinkercad.

Conclusion
• oscilloscope is a type of electronic test instrument that graphically
displays varying electrical voltages as a two-dimensional plot of one
or more signals as a function of time Oscilloscopes are used in the
sciences, medicine, engineering, automotive and the
telecommunications industry. This report will discuss how can we do
an oscilloscope.
• There are differences between software and hardware values due to
the error in the bits sent to the ide(0 is sent as a 1 and vice versa) as
well as power losses that occur in copper wires.
