Peak-Peak
The peak- to- peak value is the difference between Maximum and Minimum
values. The Y cursors show the values being measured.
Maximum
Maximum is the highest value in the waveform display. The Y cursor
shows the value being measured.
Minimum
Minimum is the lowest value in the waveform display. The Y cursor shows
the value being measured.
Amplitude
The Amplitude of a waveform is the difference between its Top and Base
values. The Y cursors show the values being measured.
Top
The Top of a waveform is the mode (most common value) of the upper
part of the waveform, or if the mode is not well defined, the top is the
same as Maximum. The Y cursor shows the value being measured.
