Duty cycle and pulse width for U1281A / U1282A
1,2,3
Duty cycle mode Range Accuracy at full scale
DC coupling 99.999% 0.3 % per kHz + 0.3 %
AC coupling 99.999% 0.3 % per kHz + 0.3 %
Pulse width range Resolution Accuracy
99.999 ms 0.001 ms Duty cycle accuracy / frequency + 1
999.99 ms 0.01 ms Duty cycle accuracy / frequency + 1
2000.0 ms 0.1 ms Duty cycle accuracy / frequency + 1
Notes
1. The accuracy for duty cycle and pulse width is based a square wave of full scale input to the 6 V
range. For AC coupling, the duty cycle range can be measured within 5 % to 95 % for signal
frequency more than 15 Hz.
2. The pulse width (positive or negative) must be more than 10 µs. The range of the pulse width is
determined by the frequency of the signal.
3. The range of the duty cycle is determined by the frequency of the signal: {10 µs x frequency x 100 %}
to {[1 –(10 µs x frequency)] x 100 %}
Peak hold for U1281A / U1282A
Signal width Accuracy for DC mV / voltage / current
Single event > 1 ms 2 % + 400 for all ranges
Repetitive > 250 µs 2 % + 1000 for all ranges
dB specification for U1281A / U1282A
dB base Reference Default reference
1 mW (dBm) 1 to 9999 Ω 50 Ω
1 V (dBV) 1 V 1 V
Notes
1. The reading of dBm is indicated in decibels of power above or below 1 mW, or decibels of voltage
above or below 1 V. The formula is calculated according to the voltage measurement and specified
reference impedance. Its accuracy is depended on the accuracy of the voltage measurement.
2. Auto-ranging mode is used
3. The bandwidth is according to voltage measurement.
