Yep, didn't you know that scope you are using is only a few % accurate
on the vertical scale?


You guys must be behind the times.


My 6000 series Agilent is not behind the times, and it's only +/-2%
accurate on the vertical scale.
A good analog scope like say the Tek2465 is only 2% as well.


Better look again;IIRC,it's 1.25% . That does not include the cursors.

It's not really significant,as you can't get that resolution on the screen.
