Hi Ralph,

The result is not caused by sampling rate, 5 GSa/sec in this case. The result 
will be the same on any scope!

All instrumentation is working as designed and intended for measurements of 
signals like this. An analog scope would display exactly the same waveform 
(used to do the experiment with an analog scope a while back).

Sample rate aliasing



When displaying a 40MHz signal on a DSO, I would want to select a time base 
that provided at least 400MS/s sampling rate.



If you were to use a 100MHz analogue scope, I would expect the effect to 
disappear.



That’s my 60s guess

Hi All,

Can you explain the result in this video I just made? Scope plots of the same 
two nodes are completely different. Probes and scope are operating normally, no 
problem with the equipment itself.

If you have been to my seminars you know the answer, please do not post the 
answer unless you have not seen this experiment until now.

Hint 1: There are no EM fields radiating from the shielded box affecting the 
probes.
Hint 2: There are no active components inside the box.
