1.PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
1-1. Description
The GOS-6103C is a 100MHz, two-channel, dual-sweep, portable
oscilloscope for general purpose use. A microprocessor-based operating
system controls most of the functions of the instrument, including cursor
readout and digitized panel setting. On-screen alphanumeric readout and
cursor function for voltage, time, frequency and phase measurement provide
extraordinary operational convenience. It also has the function of auto
measurement for frequency, period, pulse width and duty cycle. Ten
different user defined instrument settings can be saved and recalled without
restriction.
The vertical deflection system has two input channels. Each channel has 11
basic deflection factors from 2mV to 5V per division. The horizontal
deflection system provides single, dual or delayed sweeps from 0.5s to 50ns
per division (delayed sweep, 50ms to 50ns per division). The trigger system
provides stable triggering over the full bandwidth of the vertical deflection
system.

1-2.Features
Additionally, the oscilloscope offers several other features:
1) High intensity and internal graticule CRT
The oscilloscope employs a high intensity 6-inch retangular type
cathode-ray tube with red internal graticule. It displays clear readable
traces even at high sweep speeds. Internal graticule lines eliminate
parallax-viewing error between the trace and the graticule line.
2) Temperature compensation
The oscilloscope uses a temperature compensation circuit to reduce the
drift of base line and DC balance.
3) 20MHz bandwidth limit
When it is hard to observe or trigger a signal because a high-frequency
component is superimposed on the signal, use the 20MHz BWL
function to reduce the bandwidth of the vertical deflection system and
trigger system to 20MHz.
4) Automatic time base range setting
At a press of the AUTORANGE button, an optimum time base range is
automatically set to a corresponding change in input signal period. A
signal period from 1.6 to 4 cycles approx. is displayed.
5) TV triggering
Exclusive TV sync separator circuit technology provides stable TV
signal measurements on fields, frames and lines.
6) Z-axis intensity modulation
For applying a blanking signal from an external source. The trace
displayed on the screen may be intensity-modulated where pulse signal
or time-scale marks are required.
