FRR Measurement

When I try to measure the FRR (time delay in the rising edge of two pulses) between two channels of a GES-2074A GW-Instek digital oscilloscope, it varies depending on the time resolution. First, I ...

What does t2-t1 represents in the expression t2-t1 = RC*ln|9|?

And how do I find t2-t1 with an oscilloscope? I was given the following problem, I derived the expression in the title of the question and I need to use the oscilloscope to find t2-t1... Resistors ...

minimum readable rise/fall times in an oscilloscope

How can I calculate minimum readable rise/fall times of a signal in an oscilloscope (from practical point of view)? Does it depend just to bandwidth and sampling rate of oscilloscope? regards

Real rise time with oscilloscope and probe

I'm still a bit new to this domain, just wondering if the rise time of a probe and the oscilloscope itself have to be substracted to the measure in order to recover the real measured rise time? Let's ...

Are overdamped rise waveforms really "curvier"? Or is that just time scale?

Do the rising waveforms for overdamped circuits of different \$\zeta >= 1\$ actually have a different "curviness"? Or does it just look that way because they're all shown on the same time scale? ...

Is this measured rise time inaccurate because of limited oscilloscope bandwidth?

I don't have an LCR meter and wanted to learn how to use a fast edge pulse generator and an oscilloscope to do capacitance measurements as an academic exercise. In W2AEW's videos, he builds a simple ...
