what does it mean, exactly, when one says he's callibrating the time-base of his oscilloscope with a 50hz sine wave? could it be that the 'length' of the time-base / time axis would be the period of the sine wave?

aibelectronics said:ah no! no! i'm not using it to measure the mains supply, it's a digital oscilloscope and the chips would fry at 220/110v mains supply, unless of course i get a reasonable voltage divider and series resistor for reducing the current.
the circuit is for measuring 'small signals' of less than 1khz.
