Basic Electronics Module 5: Cathode Ray Oscilloscope Operation

The electron gun generates a focused beam of electrons.

The time-base generator controls the horizontal deflection of the electron beam, allowing the display of waveforms in the time domain.

The electron beam causes the screen to emit light, creating a visible trace.
