Implementation Details
The Oscilloscope allows the observation of electrical signals' waveform in the time domain. It is an analyzer thus it measures rather than contributes to the performance of the system. Please see the example file [[OSC_RFSA.icp]] for more information on this element. The following figure shows the system in the example file.
In the system, two sinusoidal waves with different amplitudes and frequencies are added together and connected to an oscilloscope. The result output measured by the oscilloscope is the waveform of the input signal. The following figure shows the output waveform visualized from the oscilloscope.
