Abstract: One of the most ubiquitous of electronic test instruments in use today is the cathode-ray oscillOSCOpe. The quantities of these units are exceeded only by small multimeters. As a complex instrument, verification of performance is generally performed one to four times per year in well directed quality assurance programs. Since checks made with manual test equipment, such as amplitude calibrators and time mark generators, can require from two hours to a full day, and require high skill level technicians, the cost and time spent to verify, calibrate and maintain a oscilloscope inventory of as few as 40 instruments can be a substantial overhead expense. Computer controlled oscilloscope calibration systems are now available to address such testing and to provide quality controlled checks, at high speed with a most salutary effect on cost reduction.
