Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes — MSO4000 Series, DPO4000 Series

Acquisition Modes

Mode

Description

Sample

Acquire sampled values

Peak Detect

Captures glitches as narrow as 2 ns at all sweep

speeds

Averaging

From 2 to 512 waveforms included in average

Envelope

Min-max envelope reflecting Peak Detect data over

multiple acquisitions

Hi Res

Real-time boxcar averaging reduces random noise

and increases vertical resolution

Roll

Scrolls waveforms right to left across the screen at

sweep speeds slower than or equal to 40 ms/div

Waveform Measurements

Measurement

Description

Cursors

Waveform and Screen

Automatic

Measurements

29, of which up to four can be displayed on-screen

at any one time. Measurements include: Period,

Frequency, Delay, Rise Time, Fall Time, Positive

Duty Cycle, Negative Duty Cycle, Positive Pulse

Width, Negative Pulse Width, Burst Width,

Phase, Positive Overshoot, Negative Overshoot,

Peak-to-Peak, Amplitude, High, Low, Max, Min,

Mean, Cycle Mean, RMS, Cycle RMS, Positive

Pulse Count, Negative Pulse Count, Rising Edge

Count, Falling Edge Count, Area and Cycle Area

Measurement

Statistics

Mean, Min, Max, Standard Deviation

Reference Levels

User-definable reference levels for automatic

measurements can be specified in either percent

or units

Gating

Isolate the specific occurrence within an acquisition

to take measurements on, using either the screen,

or waveform cursors

Waveform Histogram

A waveform histogram provides an array of data

values representing the total number of hits

inside of a user-defined region of the display. A

waveform histogram is both a visual graph of the

hit distribution as well as a numeric array of values

that can be measured.

Sources – Channel 1, Channel 2, Channel 3,

Channel 4, Ref 1, Ref 2, Ref 3, Ref 4, Math

Types – Vertical, Horizontal

Waveform Histogram

Measurements

Waveform Count, Hits in Box, Peak Hits, Median,

Max, Min, Peak-to-Peak, Mean, Standard

Deviation, Sigma 1, Sigma 2, Sigma 3
