I will be honest when I read what you wrote I was like what the.. did they make a new oscilloscope that can read current now? So I had to go double check as I know my 30ish year old one couldn't(got it for $5
), and I knew last time I used an up to date one (roughly 10 years ago when I got a B.S. EET) they added a ton of new heavily needed features like the ability to play Asteroids, or Tetris so I figured they might have had some other advancement that I wasn't up to date on since.
Do you mean you have to add a device to the scope? Or the more obvious answer, which is to put the device you're reading (servo in this case) in series with the scope?
Edit: Nevermind, I stopped rushing and actually read your post again. Can't believe they haven't built amp reading into a scope yet.
