Amplitude Analysis Measurements panel (optional).
Measurement Description
Cycle Amplitude The difference between the Top value and the Base value. Measurement can be
made across the entire record or on each cycle in the record.
Cycle Top The most common data point value above the midpoint of the waveform over the
measurement region. This measurement is made on each cycle in the record.
Cycle Base The most common data value below the midpoint of the waveform. This
measurement is made on each cycle in the record.
Cycle Peak-to-Peak The difference between the Maximum and Minimum values in the measurement
region. This measurement is made on each cycle in the record.
Cycle Maximum The maximum data point. This measurement is made on each cycle in the record.
Cycle Minimum The minimum data point. This measurement is made on each cycle in the record.
Timing Analysis Measurements panel (optional).
Measurement Description
Period The time between two adjacent crossings of the Mid reference level (one cycle) of
the waveform.
This measurement is taken on each cycle of the waveform record or measurement
region.
Frequency Frequency is the reciprocal of Period (Frequency = 1/Period). This measurement is
made on each cycle in the record.
Positive Duty Cycle The ratio of the positive-pulse width to the signal period.
This measurement is taken on each cycle of the waveform record or measurement
region.
Negative Duty Cycle The ratio of the negative-pulse width to the signal period.
This measurement is taken on each cycle of the waveform record or measurement
region.
Positive Pulse Width The time the signal remains above the Mid-reference level.
This measurement is taken on each cycle of the waveform record or measurement
region.
Negative Pulse Width The time the signal remains below the Mid-reference level.
This measurement is taken on each cycle of the waveform record or measurement
region.
