Oversampling
When the oscilloscope is operating at sampling rates less than the maximum, it is
possible to oversample. Oversampling is taking more than one measurement during
a time interval and returning an average. If the signal contains a small amount of
noise, this technique can increase the effective vertical resolution of the oscilloscope
by the amount given by the equation below:
Increase in resolution (bits) = (log oversample) / (log 4)
