Figure 4-12 Automatic measurement
The automatic measurement of voltage parameters
The oscilloscopes provide automatic voltage measurements including Mean,
PK-PK, RMS, Max, Min, Vtop, Vbase, Vamp, OverShoot, PreShoot, Cycle RMS,
and Cursor RMS.
below shows a pulse with some of the voltage
measurement points.
Figure 4-13
Mean:
The arithmetic mean over the entire waveform.
PK-PK:
Peak-to-Peak Voltage.
RMS:
The true Root Mean Square voltage over the entire waveform.
Max:
The maximum amplitude. The most positive peak voltage measured over
the entire waveform.
Min:
The minimum amplitude. The most negative peak voltage measured over
the entire waveform.
