Re: strugling to take measure with picoscope3206A

Hi, Thanks for for replying. I"m actually trying to measure the power consumption of an Atmega168 microcontroller as it perfoms some computations, so i'm meaasuring through channel A on the ground line of the power supply of the microcontroller. I'm expecting the oscilloscope to be riggered as soon ...

Re: strugling to take measure with picoscope3206A

Hi,

Im finaly geting some data from the oscilloscope, however I'm struggling with the triggering of the scope.
I'm sending a sinusoudal signal to channel A of the oscilloscope, my trigger setting seem not to be working.

I have attached a picture of the measurement. Would you please assist.

Thanks

Re: strugling to take measure with picoscope3206A

Hi, Thanks for the advice. it seems that the scope is measuring something for the circuirt. but i'm struggling to trigger the scope to measure the voltage drop, when the micontroller start to executer some AES code, as i'm recieving a lot of noise. So i suspect that if I can remove the noise then I'...

Re: strugling to take measure with picoscope3206A

hi, I'm trying to measure the power consumption of the microcontroller while it is performing some operaions and i'm taking the power consumption signal measurements by inserting a shunt resistor(1ohms) between the ground line of the power supply of the microcontroller. So at the moment I'm not gett...

strugling to take measure with picoscope3206A

hi, I just bought a picoscope3206A, but now im faced with a problem of taking measurements. When I test if the probe is working by puting my finger on it, it show a noise signal on the software. When I try to take actual measurements (an output signal from an atmega168 microcontroller) from a circui...

Re: Problem triggering picoscope 6000 externaly from atmega1

Hi,
I am using c language. is it possible to use the trigger settings on the pico software to successfully trigger the scope to capture the power measurements of an atmega168 controller while it is in operation? :?
