TDS3000, TDS3000B, and TDS3000C Series Programmer Manual
AREa is the area between the curve and ground over the active waveform the high
value minus the low value. TDS3AAM only.
BURst is the time from the first MidRef crossing to the last MidRef crossing.
CARea (cycle area) is the area between the curve and ground over one cycle.
TDS3AAM only.
CMEan is the arithmetic mean over one cycle.
CRMs is the true Root Mean Square voltage over one cycle.
DELay is the delay from one waveform’s edge event to another.
FALL is the time that it takes for the falling edge of a pulse to fall from a HighRef
value to a LowRef value of its final value.
FREQuency is the reciprocal of the period measured in hertz.
HIGH is the 100% reference level.
LOW is the 0% reference level.
MAXimum is the highest amplitude (voltage).
MEAN for general purpose measurements, is the arithmetic mean over the entire
waveform. For histogram measurements, it is the average of all acquired points
within or on the histogram box.
MINImum is the lowest amplitude (voltage).
NDUty is the ratio of the negative pulse width to the signal period expressed as a
percentage.
NOVershoot is the negative overshoot, expressed as:
NOVershoot = 100 ×

Amplitude

NWIdth is the distance (time) between MidRef (usually 50%) amplitude points of
a negative pulse.
PDUty is the ratio of the positive pulse width to the signal period expressed as a
percentage.
PERIod is the time, in seconds, it takes for one complete signal cycle to happen.
PHAse is the phase dif ference from the selected waveform to the designated
waveform.
