HP 54501A - Vpp

VPP
VPP
command/query
The
MEASURE:
VPP
command
places
the
instrument
in the
continuous
measurement
mode
and starts
a
VPP
measurement.
The
VPP
query
measures
the
maximum
and
minimum
voltages
for
the
selected
source,
then calculates
the
peak-to-peak
voltage
and
outputs
that
value.
The
peak-to-peak
voltage
(Vpp)
is
calculated
with
the
formula:
Vpp
=
Vmax
-
Vmin
where
Vmax
and Vmin
are
the
maximum
and
minimum
voltages
present
on
the
selected
source.
