Histogram Menu
A histogram is a probability distribution that shows the distribution of
acquired data within a user-definable, histogram window. You can
display the histogram either vertically for voltage measurements or
horizontally for timing measurements.
The two most common uses for histograms are measuring and
characterizing noise or jitter on displayed waveforms. Noise is
measured by sizing the histogram window to a narrow portion of time
and observing a vertical histogram that measures the noise on an
edge. Jitter is measured by sizing the histogram window to a narrow
portion of voltage and observing a horizontal histogram that measures
the jitter on an edge.
