7. Electronics design

The electronic measurement tools that I got at the Nueva Esperanza Institute in the electronics career are: * Multimeter to measure voltage, continuity, capacitors, etc. * Ammeter clamp to measure alternating current * Oscilloscope is one of the most used instruments in a technical service to analyze electrical signals, voltages, frequency in the form of waves

It begins to measure network current (alternating current) which measures tension of 220 Volts (AC) and also direct current provided by the source of 12 volts of direct current (DC).

Then we go on to measure with the oscilloscope, for which you first have to connect the cable to channel 1 and then to the ground tip of the same oscilloscope it shows a screen where the square waves should not have much noise and measurements can now be made.

To make measurements with the oscilloscope, the Arduino 1 was used, which has 2 LEDs and a potentiometer was connected to it, and with a 5-volt input provided by the laptop, for which it was measured at the outputs where it can be seen on the oscilloscope. as the horizontal wave at zero volts then we turn the potentiometer which the wave goes up and marking on the screen the voltage in millivolts, the frequency and the minimum and maximum voltage.

The Arduino is controlled by the laptop through a program that will turn on the LEDs, which is observed to turn on which voltage is 3.7 V and by continuing to increase the voltage with the potentiometer, the LED light increases its luminous intensity.
