Separate Noises from the Signal
When analyze the wave form of a signal, you should remove the noise contained in it. For the reduction of the
random noise in the oscilloscope display, please operate the instrument according to the following step:
1. Press the
ACQUIRE
button to show the
ACQU MODE
menu.
2. Press the
F3
menu selection button and choose
Average
.
3. Press the
F4
menu selection button and observe the wave form obtained from averaging the wave forms of
different average number.
After the averaging, the random noise is reduced and the detail of the signal is easier to be observed. Shown
as follows, after the noise is removed, the burrs on the rising and falling edges appear (see Fig. 109).
