T
Period
Time of the left-most signal period of the waveform - the time dif-
ference between two consecutive waveform edges measured on
the middle reference level. The measurement requires at least
one complete period of a triggered signal. Multiple measure-
ments are possible.

"Ripple" is a statistical evaluation that is reset only if the measurement setup is
changed or you reset the statistics.
