Measurement Range of A-to-B Time Interval
Varies depending on the sampling mode.
• When in time stamp mode:
0 ns to 20 ms
• When in hardware histogram mode: 0 ns to 3.2

Continuous Measurement Conditions
When the time from previous A-to-B time interval measurement to the next edge of the
CH A input signal is greater than or equal to 0 ns and the time from the previous CH A
input signal edge is greater than or equal to 12.5 ns, measurements are made
continuously.
