Edge Times
The edge times set the transition times for the leading and trailing edges
of the pulse, either independently or together. For each transition
(leading or trailing edge), the edge time represents the time between the
10% and 90% thresholds.
• Edge time: 8.4 ns to 1 µs (see restrictions below). The default edge
time is 10 ns.
• The specified edge time must fit within the specified pulse width as
shown below. The waveform generator will adjust the edge time as
needed to accommodate the specified pulse width.
• Front-Panel Operation: After selecting the pulse function, press the
Edge Times softkey. Then use the Lead Edge and Trail Edge
softkeys, followed by the knob or numeric keypad to enter the desired
edge times.
