In CRO, the time bases sweep circuit is connected to the:

Correct answer: D. Accelerating electrode

  • A. X_plate
  • B. Y_plate
  • C. Electron gun
  • D. Accelerating electrode

Explanation

Accelerating electrode: This option is correct. The time base sweep circuit is connected to the accelerating electrode, which controls the speed at which the electron beam scans across the screen horizontally, creating the time base sweep.
