Making the
Measurement
What you want to know is how much time elapses between the time
RAS goes low and the time CAS goes high again. You will use the X
and 0 markers to quickly find the answer. Remember, you specified
the negative-going edge of the RAS to be your trigger point; therefore,
the X marker should be on this edge if X to Trig = 0. If not, follow
steps
1
and 2.
1. Place the cursor on the X to Trig field and press SELECT . A
pop-up will appear showing you the current time from the X marker
to the trigger; however, you don't need to worry about this number
now.
2. Rotate the KNOB to place the X marker on the negative-going edge
of the RAS waveform and press SELECT . The pop-up closes and
displays X to Trig = 0.000 s.

3. Place the cursor on 0 to Trig and press SELECT . Repeat step 2
except place the 0 marker on the positive-going edge of the CAS
waveform and press SELECT. The pop-up closes and displays 0 to
Trig = 710 ns.
