Notes for frequency specifications:
1 Overload protection: 1000 V; input signal is <20,000,000 V × Hz (product of voltage and frequency).
2 The frequency measurement is susceptible to error when measuring low-voltage and low-frequency signals. Shielding
inputs from external noise pickup is critical for minimizing measurement errors. Turning on the low-pass filter may help
you to filter out the noise and achieve a stable reading.

Function
Duty cycle
Notes for duty cycle specifications:
1 The accuracy for duty cycle and pulse width measurements is based on a 3 V square wave input to the DC 3 V range. For
AC couplings, the duty cycle range can be measured within the range of 10% to 90% for signal frequencies >20 Hz.
2 The range of the duty cycle is determined by the frequency of the signal:
{10 μs × frequency × 100%} to {[1 – (10 μs × frequency)] × 100%}
