Textbook Problem

Name the three types of trace pattern display modes used on an oscilloscope and give examples of when each mode is most useful.

To determine

The types of trace pattern display modes that are used in an oscilloscope and the time to use each mode with their examples.

Explanation of Solution

The trace pattern display modes are of three types:

1. Pattern display modes.
2. Raster pattern modes.
3. Super imposed pattern.

Now, the following are the examples showing the perfect time for using each mode:

1. Pattern display modes:

This pattern is useful when there is need to trace spark lines and compare voltage of cylinders for firing order of the engine...
