?TINACloud – כיצד להשתמש באוסצילוסקופ הווירטואלי ב

In this tutorial you can learn about how to use the virtual oscilloscope in TINACloud in Hebrew language.

We will analyze an oscillator circuit „Colpitts.tsc” which is included in the Example folder of TINACloud.

It is important to know that the simulated oscilloscope is very useful when you want to adjust some component values of small circuits and want to see the effect of the changes immediately, in order to fine-tune your circuit.

First, open the Colpitts. tsc from the File menu of TINACloud. After that invoke the Oscilloscope from the T&M menu. Then, press the Run button. The Out1 signal appears. Now, you can use the controls to make the curve bigger and more detailed.

By default, the oscilloscope is in the “Auto” i. e., free running mode. Therefore, we will show how to get a steady state image, as a result the waveform is stabilized.

We will also show how to switch the displayed signal into Falling Edge triggering, similarly how to bring in the Vout signal.

In addition, we will also explain how you can export the display into a diagram.

Finally, we will present how to fine-tune the circuit by changing the R resistor so that both Out1 and Vout are sinusoidal.

In this tutorial video, we present the DC current flow and voltage animation feature of TINACloud in Hebrew language through a DC example.

You can find the circuit “T-pad DC Animation.TSC” in the TINACloud example folder. T-pad is an attenuator circuit, but to demonstrate the animated currents and voltages we will use it with two voltage sources:

• one at its input
• and one at its output

In the given default circuit, the DC analysis will show just the currents of the resistors, displayed by the current meters.

To see the animated current we will show how to enable this feature in TINACloud.

After that we press the DC button the program will demonstrate the current flow with running dashes. As we can se the program also marks the direction of the currents with filled current arrows. When a current is zero, the current arrow is not displayed.

The value of voltages is also indicated by the color of the dashes (wires):

• Positive values are red,
• negative values are blue.
• and the zero voltage is marked by black

In addition, the program calculates the maximum voltages.

In conclusion, by using this tool you can make outstanding presentations showing animated current flows and voltages for your presentations, textbooks, or assignments.

In this tutorial video you can learn about how to use the virtual Oscilloscope in TINACloud.

In practice we very often use an oscilloscope to measure, analyze and debug circuits in the time domain. So, it seems obvious that a simulated virtual oscilloscope can be used in circuit simulation as well.

The simulated oscilloscope is very useful when you want to adjust some component values of small circuits and want to see the effect of the changes immediately, in order to fine-tune your circuit.

First, load the circuit Collpitts.tsc from the TINA Examples folder.

Next, invoke the Oscilloscope from the T&M menu, then press the Run button.

As you can see the Out1 signal appears.

You can use the controls to make the curve bigger and more detailed.

By default, the oscilloscope is in the “Auto” i. e., free running mode.

To get a steady state image you can enable triggering as follows:

1. Set the Trigger Mode to Normal
2. Set Trigger Source to Out1
3. Set the Trigger Level to 300m.

With the controls of the Oscilloscope you can make a lot of changes on the displayed waveform. For example you can change the default rising edge triggering into falling edge triggering. You can also bring in the Vout signal or export the display into a diagram.

We will also present how to fine-tune your circuit.
