Figure 2-11 Setting the Pulse Width
To Set the Rise/Fall Edge
Rise edge time is defined as the duration of the pulse amplitude rising from 10%
to 90% threshold, while fall edge time is defined as duration of the pulse
amplitude moving down from 90% to 10% threshold. The setting of rise/fall edge
time is limited by the currently specified pulse width limit. Users can set rise
edge and fall edge independently.
1. Press Waveforms → Pulse → Rise to set the rise edge.
The rise edge shown on the screen when the instrument is powered on is the
default value or the set value of last power down. If you want to set the waveform
by fall edge, press the Rise/Fall key again, to switch into the fall edge parameter
(the current operation is displayed in inverse color).
2. Input the desired rise edge.
Use the numeric keyboard to input the parameter value directly, and press the
corresponding key to select the parameter unit. Or use the arrow keys to select
the digit to edit, and then use the knob to change its value. The generator will
change the waveform immediately.
