OSCILLOSCOPES DEFINITION (continued): … orpulsating direct current ( DC) waveforms having a frequency as low asapproximately 1 hertz ( Hz) or as high as several megahertz ( MHz). High-end oscilloscopes candisplay signals having frequencies up to several hundred gigahertz ( GHz). The display is broken up intoso-called horizontal divisions (hor div) and vertical divisions (vert div). Time isdisplayed from left to right on the horizontal scale.
