I have a dedicated production test system that uses a Tektronix oscilloscope which does not have isolated channels. I have to measure the "lag time" between the falling edge of one IGBT H bridge drive leg and the rising edge of another. It is specified to be 3 to 5 microseconds. Of course these signals are referenced to to different "grounds".
I thought a simple opto isolator circuit would do the trick but as I look at parts I get the feeling I am going to stack up enough propagation delay that measuring 3 to 5 microseconds is not going to have the needed preciscion.
Maybe drive a resistor and then use diff amps?
Your thoughts as always are welcome.
Thanks, Ed V.
