Description
The rise time of the acquired waveform from
A% to B% (or fall time from B% to A%) is ob-
tained by calculation using a histogram (fre-
quency distribution) of the 0 and 100%
levels of the acquired waveform.
As waveform data is acquired, the rise time
(or fall time) is obtained from the first rising
(or falling) edge.
When calculation of the range specified by
the A/B cursors is selected, the obtained
rise time (or fall time) is the first rising (or
falling) edge between the cursors.
Obtains the standard deviation of the waveform data.

Obtains the area value (V•s) enclosed by
the zero position (point of zero potential)
and the signal waveform.
When calculation of the range specified by
the A/B cursors is selected, the calculated
area is constrained to the waveform be-
tween the cursors.

Obtains the area (V
) of an X-Y composite waveform. In the following figures, the areas
within the lines are calculated. The calculation is available even if the X-Y composite
waveform is not intended for display.
To enable area calculation, specify the calculation range using the A/B cursors (Voltage
axis or Trace) on the waveform of each channel for X-Y composition. (The area cannot
be specified directly by A/B cursors on the X-Y waveform.)
