2. Waveform Confusion: When the sample rate is lower than twice the actual signal frequency (Nyquist Frequency), the frequency of the waveform rebuilt from the sample data is lower than the actual signal frequency. The most common aliasing effect is the jitter on fast edges. SMO2000X-E User Manual 47/198...
Gaussian frequency response. So, in practice, an oscilloscope's sample rate should be four or more times its bandwidth: f . This way, there is less aliasing, and aliased frequency components have a greater amount of attenuation. SMO2000X-E User Manual 48/198...
Interpolation softkey to select Sinx/x or X. X: The adjacent sample points are directly connected on a straight line. This method is • only confined to rebuild on the edge of signals, such as square wave. SMO2000X-E User Manual 49/198...
Page 50
This method more closely replicates more realistic shapes than pure square waves and pulses. When the sampling rate is 3 to 5 times the bandwidth of the signal, sinx/x is the recommended interpolation method. Figure 12 Display in Dots Figure 13 x Interpolation SMO2000X-E User Manual 50/198...
In this mode, the oscilloscope samples the signal at equal time intervals to rebuild the waveform. For most of the waveforms, the best display effect can be obtained using this mode. It is the default acquisition mode. SMO2000X-E User Manual 51/198...
In this mode, signal confusion can be prevented but the noise displayed would be larger. In this mode, the oscilloscope can display all the pulses with pulse widths at least as wide as the sample period. SMO2000X-E User Manual 52/198...
