Vamplitude - HP 54501A Programming Reference Manual

VAMPIitude
VAMPIitude
command/query
The
:MEASURE:VAMPUTUDE
command places the instrument in the
continuous measurement mode and
starts
a
Vamplitude measurement.
The
VAMPLITUDE
query returns the difference between the top and
base voltage
of the
displayed
signal. The
VAMPLITUDE
value
will
not
normally be
the same
as
the
Vp-p
value
if
the
input signal
is
a
pulse.
The Vamplitude
value
is
calculated with the formula:
Vamplitude
=
Vtop
-
Vbase
Command
Syntax:
:MEASure:VAMPIitude
Example:
OUTPUT 707;°:MEAS:VAMP"
Query Syntax:
:MEASure:VAMPIitude?
Returned Format: [:MEASure:VAMPIitude]
<value> <NL>
Where:
<
value >
::
=
difference between top and base voltages (exponential
-
NR3 format)
Example:
DIM vmp$[50]
OUTPUT 707;":MEASURE:VAMPLITUDE?"
ENTER 707;Vmp$
PRINT
Vmp$
