Measurement Description
Rising Edge
Count
The number of positive transitions from the low reference value to the high reference value
in the waveform or gated region.
Falling Edge
Count
The number of negative transitions from the high reference value to the low r efere nce value
in the waveform or gated region.
Positive Pulse
Count
The number of positive pulses that rise above the mid reference crossing in the waveform
or gated region.
Negative Pulse
Count
The number of negative pulses that fall below the mid reference crossing in the waveform
or gated region.
Area Area measurement is a voltage over time measurement. It returns the area over the entire
waveform or gated region in volt-seconds. Area measured above ground is positive; area
measured below ground is negative.
Cycle Area A voltage over time measurement. The measurement is the area over the first cycle in the
waveform or the first cycle in the gated region expressed in volt-seconds. The area above
the common reference point is positive, and the area below the co mmon referen ce point is
negative.
