The formula
to calculate the maximum delta-time measurement accuracy (DTA
max
) for a given
instrument setting and input signal is given below (assumes insignificant signal content above
Nyquist and insignificant error due to aliasing, overdrive recovery and overdrive interpolation):

Peak-pe
ak based on statistical accumulation of 1000 waveforms.
RMS is guaranteed regardless of data-gathering duration.
The term under the square-root sign is the stability and is due to time interval error (TIE). The
errors due to this term occur throughout a single-shot measurement. T he second term is due to
both the absolute center-frequenc y accuracy and the center-frequency stability of the timebase
and varies between multiple single-shot measurements over the observation interval (the
amount of time from the first single-shot measurement to the final single-shot measurement).
The observation interval may not exceed 1 year.
Test frequency = 0.621 × bandwidth. Test amplitude = 80% full scale.
