  • Page 64: Timebase And Sampling Rate

    Setting Measurement Conditions 3.3.2 Timebase and Sampling Rate The timebase setting defines a time length per division of the horizontal axis (time/div). The sampling setting defines an interval at which the instrument samples waveforms. (While the memory function is being used, the sampling rate appears, enclosed in parentheses, under the timebase box.
  • Page 65 Setting Measurement Conditions How to select the timebase Refer to the table below to set the timebase. For example, to measure a waveform with a frequency of 100 kHz, a maximum display frequency of between 200 kHz and 800 kHz should be selected according to the following table. When you want to set the maximum display frequency to 400 kHz, the timebase should be set to 10 µs/div.
  • Page 66 Setting Measurement Conditions What is the maximum display frequency? To plot sine waves that allow you to observe those peaks on the LCD, the instrument needs to sample the waveforms at least 25 points per cycle. The maximum display frequency varies depending on the timebase setting.
  • Page 67 Setting Measurement Conditions • The timebase and sampling rate can be set independently. The sampling rate is selected depending on the timebase setting. • As mentioned below, when the former timebase settings are selected, the instrument displays waveforms that are demagnified horizontally (in the time axis direction) at the latter scale size. 20 ms/div, ×1/2;...

    FFT Definitions The values indicated above may vary depending on the number of times the battery is used, charging state, or ambient temperature. If the instrument is running on AC power supply and the DC power unit is kept on standby (switch is in the on position), the instrument will consume the battery of the unit.

  • Page 464 FFT Definitions ■ Number of analysis points The FFT functions of this instrument can perform frequency analysis of time-domain waveforms consisting of 1000, 2000, 5000, or 10,000 points. However, when the following conditions are satisfied, previously analyzed data can be reanalyzed with a different number of analysis points. A.
  • Page 465 FFT Definitions ■ Aliasing When the frequency of a signal to be measured is higher than the sampling rate, the observed frequency is lower than that of the actual signal, with certain frequency limitations. This phenomena occurs when sampling occurs at a lower frequency than that defined by the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, and is called aliasing.
  • Page 466 FFT Definitions ■ Anti-aliasing filters When the maximum frequency component of the input signal is higher than one-half of the sampling frequency, aliasing distortion occurs. To eliminate aliasing distortion, a low-pass filter can be used that cuts frequencies higher than one-half of the sampling frequency. Low-pass filters used this way are called anti-aliasing filters.
  • Page 467 FFT Definitions ■ Imaging When the instrument is set to a measurement frequency range that requires a higher sampling rate than the maximum capability of the module, intermediate data points are interpolated between successive data samples. In this case, the time-domain waveform exhibits a stair-step shape. When FFT analysis is performed in this situation, non-existent high frequency spectral components appear.
