Scans through the buffer of 4096 instantaneous voltage measurements, and
returns the voltage value that corresponds to the percentile rank given. Specifying
a percentile of 0 returns the lowest value in the buffer. A percentile of 100 returns
the highest value in the buffer. A percentile of 50 returns the median value of the
buffer. Stated another way, if you specify a percentile of 60, 60 percent of the
voltage readings in the buffer are less that the returned value, and 40 percent of
the readings in the buffer are greater than the returned value.
If the voltage waveform consists of rectangular pulses that have narrow
overshoots, using percentiles of approximately 5 and 95 (depending on the width
of the pulses and the width of the overshoots) is a good way to determine the
voltages at the flat portions of the pulses.
