Transition Times - Pulse Data Analysis
Selects the transition parameters of the pulse signal to be indicated below the mea-
surement diagram.
The R&S NRP-Z sensor searches for the first rising edge and the first falling edge in
the trace.
Rise Time / Fall Time ← Transition Times - Pulse Data Analysis
Displays the time the signal requires from crossing low reference until it reaches high
reference level and vice versa.

Overshoot (Rising Edge / Falling Edge) ← Transition Times - Pulse Data Analysis
Display the maximum value of the pulse signal following a rising transition and the min-
imum value of the signal after a falling transition, respectively.
Overshoot values are given in per cent of the pulse amplitude as shown below:
●
Overshoot(pos) = 100* (maximum - top level ) / (top level - base level)
●
Overshoot(neg) = 100* (base level - minimum) / (top level - base level)
