Add, Subtraction, Multiplication,Division and FFT
In the Math function, use the addition, subtraction, multiplication,division and FFT to
operate and analyze the waveform.
The multiplication function window is displayed in figure 2-13
7. FFT
The FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) process converts a time-domain signal into its
frequency components mathematically.
FFT waveforms are useful in the following applications:
■
Measure harmonic content and distortion in systems
■
Characterize noise in DC power supplies
■
Analyze harmonics in power lines
