In this episode of Scopes University, we will learn how to do Frequency Response Analysis, or FRA, on an oscilloscope. This Keysight exclusive application enables you to characterize your device using a Bode plot right on the screen of the oscilloscope.

You will gain an understanding of why Frequency Response Analysis is important for amplifiers, power supplies, filters, audio systems, etc. Doing this further characterization gives you more insight into whether your device is operating correctly.

In this exercise, we use a basic band pass filter to learn how to set up a Bode plot using an oscilloscope. This enables us to analyze the gain and phase of the system versus frequency.
By the end of the episode, you will understand how to analyze the frequency response of a system using a Bode plot on an oscilloscope quickly and easily.


Tune in for future Scopes University episodes covering more oscilloscope capabilities to see how you can test more efficiently!

The digital storage oscilloscope we used:

keysight.com/en/pcx-x205216/infiniivision-3000t…

(The Keysight InfiniiVision 3000T X-Series Oscilloscope)

The 3000T X-Series oscilloscopes offer a capacitive touch screen, a user interface designed for touch, and the exclusive Zone touch trigger, all combined with an industry-leading uncompromised update rate of 1 million wfm/s to help you see all of your signal detail. Plus, advanced analysis capabilities help you solve your hardest challenges quickly.


The other digital storage oscilloscope we took a look at:

keysight.com/en/pcx-2759552/infiniivision-1000-…

(The Keysight InfiniiVision 1000 X-Series Oscilloscope)

This is an awesome cheap oscilloscope for beginners. Even though it has an ultra-low price, it has the quality of an industry level oscilloscope. It has a built-in digital multimeter, function generator (WaveGen), built-in training signals to learn quickly, and more!


Scopes University is hosted by Erin East and Melissa Spencer. The video series covers when and how to use different applications and capabilities of the InfiniiVision and Infiniium oscilloscopes. You’ll gain familiarity with features that will help you save time in your measurement, further your analysis, and deepen your insight.
