6.2 Meaning of Each Parameter and Waveform Examples
WF1967/WF1968 6-15
b) Lorentz Pulse

Overview
A Lorentz waveform.

Meaning of each parameter
The example shows the case where the amplitude range is 0/+FS.
• Half Width
The half value width of the Lorentz function.
Variable range: 0.01% to 100.00% of basic cycle
Peak value is fixed at +FS at the center of the horizontal axis.
The head and tail do not go to zero. Please note that the
greater the half value width the more the head and tail will
float above the zero level. The head will be less than
0.01•FS when the half value width is less than 10.05%.

Waveform examples
The polarity and amplitude range are all Normal, 0/+FS.

Remarks
The following formula expresses x as the horizontal axis and y as the vertical axis (when the
amplitude range is 0/+FS).
