The goal of
this project is developing an affordable oscilloscope for the average hobbyist
and making it simple to use and build. The developed oscilloscope is an analog
oscilloscope. Because they are much simpler to build than digital ones, they
are generally more resistant to high voltages and allow the user to measure
voltages up to hundreds of volts without damaging the oscilloscope. This gives
the user a greater freedom in experimentation. As the oscilloscope is an analog
one the display will be provided with a cathode ray tube. Having a CRT display
makes the driving circuit of the display much simpler than a digital one. To
allow the oscilloscope to handle high voltages and to be able to power the x
and y deflection on the CRT, vacuum tubes will be used. Even though vacuum
tubes consume and waste power for the heating of their cathodes, that will only
present a couple watts of loses that can be ignored in this prototype
development.
