SDS Sequence mode: Stop after end frame is reached

October 6, 2022

Many SIGLENT SDS series oscilloscopes feature Sequence mode, which can be used to capture multiple trigger events that can be replayed like frames in a movie. In this video, we show how to use SINGLE trigger mode to stop acquisition after the user-defined sequences have been captured.

VNC Viewer for easy LAN control of multiple instruments

October 6, 2022

In this video, I connect an SDS6000A series oscilloscope and SDG7000A series arbitrary waveform generator to a computer using a LAN and highlight some of the features of a commercially available VNC(r) software tool. If you are remotely monitoring instrumentation, these types of tools can be very helpful in displaying information.

Power Supply design: Testing! Not Guessing!

April 22, 2021

In this video, Thomas Rottach from SIGLENT EU presents information on overcoming common power supply design issues through different testing methods. The first presentation of this material was at the Power Electronics Forum @ virtual Electronica 2020.

Power Supply Design: Load Step Response with a SIGLENT DC Electronic Load

April 3, 2020

In this video, I compare the response from two power supplies using a stepped load to show the differences between a well-tuned supply and one that exhibits excessive ringing. Also, add in some basic instrument requirements to help get you started making your own step load tests. Here, I use a SIGLENT SDL1X-E DC Electronic … Continued

SDS1004/SDS2000X-E series Embedded Web Control

October 14, 2019

The SIGLENT SDS1004X-E series (4 channel only. Does not apply to the SDS1202X-E), SDS2000X-E, and SDS5000X series of oscilloscopes feature a web control interface that provides remote instrument control without additional software. In this video, we show you how to configure the scope for wired LAN or wireless WiFi connection and an overview of the … Continued

Frequency Response Curves (Bode Plot) using an Oscilloscope and Function Generator

October 11, 2019

In this video, we show how to use the automated Bode Plot feature of the SIGLENT SDS1004X-E series of four-channel oscilloscopes to create a frequency response curve. This video applies to the SIGLENT SDS1104X-E, SDS1204X-E, SDS2000X-E, SDS2000X Plus, and SDS5000X oscilloscopes as well as the SDG X series (SDG1X, 2X, and 6X) of arbitrary waveform … Continued
