Peak-to-peak hold
In Peak-to-peak Hold Mode, measurements are performed while
the timing input is ON, and the difference between the maximum
value and the minimum value in the sampling period will be the
output value.
Hold Mode starts when the power is turned ON, immediately after
changing to RUN or T Mode, or immediately after the reset input
is turned OFF.
The output is held at the maximum output (current: approximately
23 mA, voltage: approximately 5.5 V) until the first sampling
period is finished. The first measured result (P
1
− B
1
in the figure
below) is output from the end of the first sampling period to the
end of the second sampling period. After the second sampling
period, the second measured result (P
2
− B
2
in the figure below)
is output and the sequence is repeated.
Self-peak hold
In Self-peak Hold Mode, measurements are performed while the
measured value is larger than or equal to the self-trigger level,
and the maximum value in the period will be the output value.
Hold Mode starts when the power is turned ON, immediately after
changing to RUN or T Mode, or immediately after the reset input
is turned OFF.
The output is head at the maximum output (current: approxi-
mately 23 mA, voltage: approximately 5.5 V) until the first sam-
pling period is finished. The first measured result (A in the figure
below) is output from the end of the first sampling period to the
end of the second sampling period. After the second sampling
period, the second measured result (B in the figure below) is out-
put and the sequence is repeated.
Self-bottom hold
In Self-bottom Hold Mode, measurements are performed while
the measured value is smaller than or equal to the self-trigger
level, and the minimum value in the period will be the output
value.
Hold Mode starts when the power is turned ON, immediately after
changing to RUN or T Mode, or immediately after the reset input
is turned OFF.
The output is held at the maximum output (current: approximately
23 mA, voltage: approximately 5.5 V) until the first sampling
period is finished. The first measured result (A in the figure below)
is output from the end of the first sampling period to the end of the
second sampling period. After the second sampling period, the
second measured result (B in the figure below) is output and the
sequence is repeated.
Note: Sampling is not affected by the timing input in Self-bottom
Hold Mode.
