Amplitude Measurements (Cont.)
+Overshoot This is measured over the entire waveform or gated region and is expressed as:
Positive Overshoot = (Maximum - High) x Amplitude x 100%.
-Overshoot This is measured over the entire waveform or gated region and is expressed as:
Negative Overshoot = (Low - Minimum) x Amplitude x 100%.
Mean The arithmetic mean over the entire waveform or gated region.
Cycle Mean The arithmetic mean over the first cycle in the waveform or the first cycle in the gated
region.
Time Measurements
Rise Time The time required for the leading edge of the first pulse in the waveform or gated region to
rise from the low reference value (default = 10%) to the high reference value (de fault =
90%) of the final value.
Fall Time The time required for the falling edge of the first pulse in the waveform or gated region to
fall from the high reference value (default = 90%) to the low reference value (default =
10%) of the final value.
Pos Width The distance (time) between the mid re ference (default 50%) amplitude points of a
positive pulse. The measurement is made on the first pulse in the waveform or gated
region.
Neg Width The distance (time) between the mid re ference (default 50%) amplitude points of a
negative pulse. The measurement is made on the first pulse in the waveform or gated
region.
+DutyCyc 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.
-DutyCyc 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.
