Acquisition Features
Separate Digitizers. Ensure accurate timing measurements with
separate digitizers for each channel. Each digitizer can sample at up
to the maximum sample rate; acquisition on all channels is always
concurrent to provide full single-shot bandwidth on each channel.
See page 1–4.
Normal Acquisition. Acquire 10,000 point waveforms to capture
horizontal detail and then use the zoom
function to analyze the
detail. See page 3–11.
Fast Trigger Acquisition. Acquire up to 3,000 waveforms per second to
see rapidly changing signals or intermittent signal irregularities. See
page 3–11.
Pretrigger. You can capture signals that occur before the trigger point.
You can position the trigger point at the beginning of the acquisition,
at the end, or at any location in between. See page 3–25.
Delay. You can also delay the acquisition so that it starts after the
trigger point. Use delay when you want to acquire the signal at a
specific time after the trigger point. See page 3–27.
Peak Detect. See pulses as narrow as 1 ns even at the slower time base
settings. Peak Detect helps you see noise and glitches in your signal.
See page 3–8.
Signal Processing Features
Average. Apply averaging to your signal to remove uncorrelated noise
and improve measurement accuracy. See page 3–9.
Envelope. Use envelope to capture and display the maximum
variation of a signal. See page 3–9.
Waveform Math. Use waveform math to add, subtract, multiply, or
divide waveforms. For example, you can use math to analyze
differential signals or calculate a power waveform. See page 3–74.
