5.1.4 Oscilloscope

Oscilloscope: A digital or analog oscilloscope can be used to measure the ripple voltage on VOUT. It is also used to monitor various test points around the EVM. Section 6 describes test procedure for these measurements. For ripple measurements it is not recommended to use the leaded ground connection supplied with the oscilloscope. This can induce additional noise due to the large ground loop area.
