When gating is off, the oscilloscope takes measurements over the entire

Measurement name Definition
Period
Time it takes for the first complete signal cycle to
complete in the waveform. M easure d in seconds.
Frequency
Reciprocal of the period of the first cycle in the waveform.
Measured in Hertz (Hz).
Delay
Timing measurement. The time between the M idRef
crossings of two different waveforms or the ga ted region
of the waveforms.
Ri
se Time
Time that the leading edge of the first pulse in the
