Peak to peak
This voltage measurement is the absolute difference between the maximum and minimum amplitude in the entire waveform or
gated region.
Period
This measurement is the time required to complete the first cycle in a waveform or gated region. Period is the reciprocal of
frequency and is measured in seconds.
Select trigger polarity
Select the polarity from the drop-down list.
â–
Click Positive to trigger on a positive-going pulse.
â–
Click Negative to trigger on a negative-going pulse.
â–
Click Either to trigger the instrument on either polarity.
Positive duty cycle
This timing measurement is the ratio of the positive pulse width to the signal period expressed as a percentage.
The duty cycle is measured on the first cycle in the waveform or gated region.
Positive Duty Cycle = ((Positive Width) ÷ Period) × 100%
