8-64 Command Reference
:MEASure «:PDUTycycle | :DCYCle»?
[8 [<threshold>] [,(@«1|2»)]]
Positive duty cycle: Duty Factor
Traditional duty cycle measurement is performed. That is, the ratio between the on
time and the off time of the input pulse is measured.
Parameters
<threshold> parameter sets the trigger levels in volts. If omitted, the auto trigger level is set to
50 percent of the signal.
(@«1|2») is the measurement channel:
(@1) means input A
(@2) means input B
If you omit the channel, the instrument measures on input A (@1).
Example:
SEND® MEAS:PDUT?
READ¬
+5.097555E-001
In this example, the duty cycle is 50.97%
Complies with standards: SCPI 1991.0, confirmed.
