I am a first year student of ECE. There was this experiment of basic electronics where we had to generate function through function gen. and read the properties of thee output signal through DSO.
Func. generator amp=3.000 vpp
DSO ampl=Pk-Pk=32.2V
Why is the amplitude and vpp 10x in DSO?
And also shouldn't the amplitude be half of vpp set in function generator that is 1.5V?
The scope is in 10x probe setting but you don't have a 10x probe, you have a direct cable between devices so use the 1x setting, so there is a 10x factor.
Also the generator is set to High-Z setting, which means it outputs the selected amplitude to unterminated scope, so there is no 2x factor there as the other mode shows correct amplitude with 50 ohm termination which you don't have.
Channel 1 setting is on 10x, peak around the channel's Settings (4th button top to bottom nearest to screen) or check the manual. This is a setting used for when you have 10x attenuator probes, that reduce the voltage by a factor of 10.
