Pulse Duty Cycle - Keysight U2761A User Manual

Pulse Duty Cycle

The pulse duty cycle is defined as:
where the pulse width represents the time from the 50% threshold of the rising
edge of the pulse to the 50% threshold of the next falling edge.
– Pulse duty cycle: >0% to <100% (see restrictions below). The default is 50%.
– The specified pulse duty cycle must conform to the following restrictions

Duty Cycle = 100 × Pulse Width / Period
determined by the minimum pulse width (Wmin). The U2761A will adjust the
pulse duty cycle as needed to accommodate the specified period.

where:
Wmin = 40 ns for period ≤ 10 s.
Wmin = 200 ns for period > 10 s, but ≤ 100 s.
Wmin = 2 μs for period > 100 s, but ≤ 1000 s.
Wmin = 20 μs for period > 1000 s.
