7.8.6 How to Perform an APD or CCDF Measurement
The following step-by-step instructions demonstrate how to perform basic statistic
measurements.
For remote operation, see Chapter 14.5.8.7, "Programming Example: Measuring Sta-
tistics", on page 846.
To start a basic statistic measurement
1. Press the [MEAS] key, then select the "APD" or "CCDF" measurement.
2. Start a sweep.
As soon as the defined number of samples have been measured, the statistical
evaluation is displayed.
To perform a statistic measurement using gate ranges
For pulsed signals, the transmission intervals should not be included in the statistical
evaluation. Thus, you must define gate ranges to be included in the measurement.
1. Press the [MEAS Config] key, then select the "APD Config" or "CCDF Config" soft-
key.
The "APD" "APD" or "CCDF" dialog box is displayed.
2. Select the "Edit Gate Ranges" button.
3. Define the time period for which the input signal is to be analyzed, for example the
duration of 3 signal pulses.
4. For each active trace, define up to three ranges within the time period to be mea-
sured. In the example covering 3 pulses, you could define one range for each
pulse.
a) Assuming the external trigger determines T=0 as the start of the first pulse,
define the start time of range 1 at 0 s.
b) Define the stop time of range 1 at the duration of the first pulse.
c) Activate range 1 by setting "Range 1 Use" to On.
d) Define the start time of range 2 as (duration of pulse 1 + duration of interval)
e) Define the stop time of range 2 as (start time of range 2 + duration of pulse 2)
f) Activate range 2 by setting "Range 2 Use" to On.
g) Define the third range in the same way.
