3-49. What is the purpose of the deflection
amplifiers in a cathode-ray oscilloscope?
1. To isolate the input signal from the
vertical deflection plates
2. To increase the amplitude of the
signal applied to the vertical
deflection plates
3. To eliminate distortion of the CRT
beam
4. To position the beam on the CRT
3-50. What control on the front panel of an
oscilloscope limits the input signal
amplitude and allows the oscilloscope to
be used with a wide range of signals?
1. TIME/CM
2. TIME BASE
3. ATTENUATOR
4. TRIGGER
3-51. What is the purpose of a variable
potentiometer mounted on the
VOLTS/DIV control of an oscilloscope?
1. To provide definite step control of the
input signal
2. To provide fine control of the input
signal
3. To provide fine control of the output
signal
4. To provide definite step control of the
output signal
3-52. The time base of an oscilloscope is
variable to enable the instrument to
1. measure low- and high-amplitude
signal voltages
2. operate over a wide range of input
frequencies
3. make accurate measurements of
signal amplitudes
4. accurately position the presentation
on the CRT
