Period

Period is the time period of the complete waveform cycle. The time is
measured between the middle threshold points of two consecutive,
like- polarity edges. A middle threshold crossing must also travel through
the lower and upper threshold levels which eliminates runt pulses. The X
cursors show what portion of the waveform is being measured. The Y
cursor shows the middle threshold point.
