1.2 Features

Memory Function:

Provides a sampling period as fast as 50 ns, suitable for observing instanta-

neous waveforms and transient phenomena.

Recorder Function:

Suitable for slow phenomena and observational recording.

Real-Time Saving Function:

Suitable for storing long-term measurement data. While measuring, data is

saved directly onto recording media.

FFT Function:

Provides frequency analysis.

See "4.1 Selecting the Function" (⇒ p. 80)

About FFT Function: Analysis Supplement

8860: Choose from 32 to 128 MWords, 512 MWords or 1 GWord.

8861: Choose from 64 to 256 MWords, or 1 or 2 GWords.

Digital triggering circuitry is employed.

Control measurements by combined trigger criteria including level, window,

period, glitch, slope, voltage sag, logic (pattern) and timer triggers.

See "Chapter 6 Trigger Settings" (⇒ p. 129)

By setting the measurement unit name and physical value per volt of input sig-

nal, measurements are converted and displayed as the specified measurement

units.

See "5.4 Converting Input Values (Scaling Function)" (⇒ p. 117)

Without interrupting ongoing measurements, you can scroll back to view

recorded waveforms that have scrolled off the screen.

See "8.1 Scrolling Waveforms" (⇒ p. 186)

Numerical values and gauges can be displayed with waveforms, simplifying on-

screen verification of measured values.

See "8.5 Applying Gauges" (⇒ p. 191)

Trace cursors enable viewing times and numerical values on all channels.

See "8.8 Cursor Values" (⇒ p. 195)

Various numerical calculations and waveform calculations are available.
