| Problem with my scope? Reading positive versus negative average DC voltages. |

I found one and it isn't specified. https://eu.mouser.com/datasheet/2/878/5992_3484-1759582.pdf I suspect that's what this might be though. --- End quote --- 0.5V over 20V is far more than one would expect from channel crosstalk but within accuracy spec. |

The next question would be does the reading change on a channel between when they're both connected to +10V and you connect the other channel to ground, not -10V. |

I´ve just checked the Rigol 1054 out of curiosity: (without probe, DC directly fed into BNC, normal sampling mode, AVG-measurement, all tests with 1V/div) It´s not good, but it seems to follow the 1/10th-of-the-tolerance rule. I checked for DC-crosstalk with a negative voltage on Ch2 and there was nothing. @wobbly: Is it possible your trigger is tricking you? Sometimes the 50/60Hz-hum mixes into the triggering and then it looks on the screen like a DC-offset for fast horizontal settings. May you try to set the timebase to something slower or use roll-mode? PS: Is there a good way to copy tables from libreoffice (<=> excel) into the forum without using images? |

I just tried this experiment at work (with completely different equipment) and got almost the exact same result! The work scope is an old Tek 3034. I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be such a large discrepancy. If that's just the way I things are then so be it! Shame it's not something that can be adjusted by the user. |
