- | Using the Network Analyzer instrument in the Scopy software obtain a gain (attenuation) vs. frequency plot from 5 kHz to 10 MHz. Scope channel 1 is the "filter" input and scope channel 2 is the "filter" output. Set AWG offset to 1V and the Amplitude to 200mV. The offset value is not important at this point when measuring a simple real capacitor but will be used as the reverse bias voltage when we measure diodes in later steps. Set the vertical scale to start at 1dB to -50 dB range. Run a single sweep and export the data to a .csv file. You should notice a high pass characteristic that has a high attenuation at very low frequencies where the impedance of the capacitor is large compared to R<sub>1</sub>. At the very high end of the frequency sweep there should be a relatively flat region where the impedance of the C<sub>1</sub>, C<sub>m</sub>capacitive voltage divider is much lower than R<sub>1</sub>. | + | Using the Network Analyzer instrument in the Scopy software obtain a gain (attenuation) vs. frequency plot from 5 kHz to 10 MHz.
