What does Bandwidth mean for Oscilloscopes? - Workbench Wednesdays

Using the Rohde and Schwarz RTH1004 ScopeRider, James talks about oscilloscope bandwidth. In this video, learn what oscilloscope bandwidth is, what it is not, and see two measurements that help you tell if you are being band-limited by an oscilloscope: bit.ly/3xiP85O

I've viewed other content on the element14 channel but new to your featured videos. You have a very effective and articulate presentation style, and that is how I learn most effectively. Thank you for producing this, and your upfront transparency about the sponsor of your content. You must be well regarded in this community, as I read a posted comment from one of R&S's competitors (*cough, cough* . . . Keysight).

Thank you for your response, meant a lot to me. Keep up the good work😊

[@KeysightLabs]

Great explanation, James! We find that sampling rate of [maximum bandwidth * 2.5] does pretty well with the right interpolation. More never hurts, though :)

[@diyinstinct4502]

Very good explanation between bandwidth and sample rate. Thanks!

[@klausfortschbeck8369]

Great Video!

[@CABohol]

Nice!

[@saydmarschany8321]

Very well prepared presentation, would like to learn more. I am a beginner, never took lessons in electronics, but got a sudden urge to get involved. Purchased a 25mhz, full featured oscilloscope, and was wondering if I made the right choice. Will be testing my gadgets and breadboard projects. Will it be enough for what I am using it for? Thank you for your time

[@bald_engineer]

Yes. 25 MHz is a good starting point.

Nice explanation James.

[@bald_engineer]

Thanks Tim! Great to see you!

What stats do I need to hit to see how my synthesizer looks? Sound / waveform wise.

hi good video, i am looking to put together a small e lab, it has been 20 years sense i had an e lab, and a scope tech has changed a lot...
i am looking to try and build a 3 phase power inverter using a pi or an Arduino micro controller, in the 30 to 120 Hz range, i would like to get a nice clean sine wave, what kind of scope should i be looking for?

[@savithripanchakattimath5804]

i have scope of BW 500Mhz, rise time spec is

[@hunmagy8741]

For 100Mbps CAT5 what is the minimum oscilloscope specifications ?
(BW and Sample rate) is Sample rate 2.5Msa/s and band width 200khz enough?
Thanks

Cutting edge oscilloscope

I thought it was the dude from Pawn Stars from the thumbpic.
