Measurement Description
+Duty The ratio of the positive pulse
width to the signal period
expressed as a percentage.
The duty cycle is measured on
the first cycle in the waveform
or gated region.
–Duty The ratio of the negative pulse
width to the signal period
expressed as a percentage.
The duty cycle is measured on
the first cycle in the waveform
or gated region.
Burst Width The duration of a burst (a series
of transient events) and is
measured over the entire
waveform or gated region.
Amplitude measurement descriptions
Table 8: Amplitude measurements
Measurement Description
Peak-to-peak The absolute difference
between the maximum and
minimum amplitude in the entire
waveform or gated region.
Amplitude The average high value less the
average low value measured
over the entire waveform or
gated region.
Max The most positive peak voltage.
Max is measured over the
entire waveform or gated
region.
