Definition
Voltage measurement. The high value less the low value measured over the entire waveform or
gated region.
Amplitude = High – Low
Voltage over time measurement. The area over the entire waveform or gated region in volt-seconds.
Area measured above ground is positive; area below ground is negative.
Voltage over time measurement. The area over the first cycle in the waveform, or over the first cycle
in the gated region, in volt-seconds. Area measured above ground is positive; area below ground is
negative.
Timing measurement. The duration of a burst. Measured over the entire waveform or gated region.
Voltage measurement. The arithmetic mean over the first cycle in the waveform or the first cycle in
the gated region.
Voltage measurement. The true Root Mean Square voltage over the first cycle in the waveform, or
over the first cycle in the gated region.
Timing measurement. The time between the MidRef crossings of two different traces or the gated
region of the traces.
Timing measurement. Time taken for the falling edge of the first pulse in the waveform or gated
region to fall from a High Ref value (default = 90%) to a Low Ref value (default =10%) of its final
value.
