Statistical Measurement Results

Most measurements have a setup window that provides for the entry of a multi-measurement count value.

This specifies how many measurements the test set will perform to obtain a set of values from which to

calculate the following statistical measurement results:

• Average (arithmetic mean) of measurement set

• Minimum value from measurement set

• Maximum value from measurement set

• Standard Deviation of measurement set

Operating Considerations

The advantages of using the multi-measurement feature to obtain statistical measurement data include:

reduced time associated with GPIB bus traffic, and reduced time configuring hardware. This is because the

number of measurements specified in the multi-measurement count value are performed during one

measurement cycle.
