5-10. APERTURE EFFECTS. Aperture, the actual
diameter of the lens opening, is described in terms
of f/number which is the relationship between the focal
length and the apparent diameter of the lens (f/number
RT PHOSPHOR = f/d, when f = focal length of the lens and d = the ap-
parent diameter of the lens). Figure 5-3 shows a
typical oscilloscope bezel and demonstrates the effect

GRATICULE LINES should be fairly apparent from examination of figure
5-3 that because of the cathode ray tube phosphor and
graticule separation, the aperture must be closed
somewhat in order for both thegraticule and the trace
to be in focus at the same time. In the 196A, the aper-
ture must be set to about f/5.6 or smaller (f/number
5.6 or higher) for both the graticule and trace to be in
