4.1.4 Oscilloscope

Oscilloscope: A digital or analog oscilloscope can be used to measure the ripple voltage on VOUT. The oscilloscope should be set for 1-MΩ impedance, 20-MHz bandwidth, ac coupling, 1-μs/division horizontal resolution, 10-mV/division vertical resolution for taking output ripple measurements. TP3 and TP4 or TP18 and TP19 can be used to measure the output ripple voltages by placing the oscilloscope probe tip through TP3 or TP18 and holding the ground barrel to TP4 or TP19 as shown in Figure 4-2. For a hands free approach, the loop in TP4 or TP19 can be cut and opened to cradle the probe barrel. Using a leaded ground connection may induce additional noise due to the large ground loop area.
