How to use an oscilloscope professionally (PeakTech 1404)
In this video, we are going to use the Peak Tech 1404 Oscilloscope to determine the resonant frequency in an RLC circuit. Next, we will visually observe the resonant frequency in the circuit with the help of the Lissajous curve.
Now, what is the resonant frequency? When AC current enters this circuit, there is a specific frequency at which the circuit responds the most. This frequency, called resonance, is a key concept in electronics and wave systems and plays an important role in many applications, from filters to radio circuits.
In DC or low-frequency current, the inductor allows current to pass, that is, it is short-circuited. But if alternating current enters the inductor, the inductor starts to resist. This is the inductive reactance, which is represented by xl.
The capacitor does not allow DC voltage to pass, but in alternating current, as the frequency increases, the resistance to the passage of current decreases. This is the capacitive reactance, which is represented by xC.
In this video, we will practically implement these two concepts using an oscilloscope.
