Amplitude Analysis, Timing Analysis power measurements: Configure panel.

Field or control Description

Source Sets the signal source or sources used to take the measurement. If the measurement requires

more than one source, multiple source fields are displayed. Tap the field to show the list of

available sources.

Label Sets the name of the measurement. You can use the default name, or double-tap in the field

and change the label using a connected keyboard or the virtual keyboard.

Edge Sets the signal edge to detect (rise or fall). Used in most Timing Analysis measurement.

Available when the power measurement = Frequency.

Clock Edge Sets the clock signal edge to detect (rise, fall, or either). Used in Timing Analysis

measurements.

Available when the power measurement = Positive Duty Cycle or Negative Duty Cycle.

Line Frequency Sets the line frequency of the power signal source. Power Autoset uses the selected frequency

to setup the scope acquisition parameters.

Available when the power measurement = Line Ripple.

Switching Frequency Specify the operating frequency of the switching device. Power Autoset uses the selected

frequency to set the oscilloscope acquisition parameters. Frequency range is 50 Hz to 1 MHz.

Only available when the power measurement = Switching Ripple.

Power Autoset button

Sets the oscilloscope acquisition system for optimal measurement results for all active power measurements except Turn On

Time, Turn Off Time, Input Capacitance, and Inrush Current.

Use the following steps to run a Power Autoset on applicable power measurements:

1. Add the power measurements that you want to take to the Results bar.

2. Configure each power measurement individually (input voltage sources, current sources, label name, and so on).

3. Connect the input signals to the instrument and confirm the waveforms are correct and not clipping.
