SDS1000X-E User Manual Overview To understand the oscilloscope's sampling and acquisition modes, it is helpful to understand sampling theory, sample rate and oscilloscope bandwidth and sample rate. Sampling Theory The Nyquist sampling theorem states that for a limited bandwidth (band- limited) signal with maximum frequency fMAX, the equally spaced sampling frequency fS must be greater than twice the maximum frequency fMAX, in order to have the signal be uniquely reconstructed without aliasing.
SDS1000X-E User Manual frequency (Nyquist Frequency), the frequency of the waveform rebuilt from the sample data is lower than the actual signal frequency. The most common aliasing is the jitter on fast edge. 3. Waveform Leakage: when the sample rate is too low, the waveform rebuilt from the sample data does not reflect all the actual signal information.
SDS1000X-E User Manual However, digital signals have frequency components above the fundamental frequency (square waves are made up of sine waves at the fundamental frequency and an infinite number of odd harmonics), and typically, for 500 MHz bandwidths and below, oscilloscopes have a Gaussian frequency response. So, in practice, an oscilloscope's sample rate should be four or more times its bandwidth: fS = 4fBW.
SDS1000X-E User Manual Memory Depth Memory depth refers to the number of waveform points that the oscilloscope can store in a single trigger sample and it reflects the storage ability of the sample memory. The oscilloscope provides up to 14 Mpts memory depth. Press the Acquire button on the front panel; press the Mem Depth softkey and then turn the Universal Knob to select the desired value and push down the knob to confirm. Press the Mem Depth softkey continually can also select the desired value.
SDS1000X-E User Manual uses the interpolation method to display a waveform. Interpolation method is a processing method to “connect all the sampling points”, and using some points to calculate the whole appearance of the waveform. For real-time sampling interpolation method is used, even if the oscilloscope in a single captures only a small number of sampling points. The oscilloscope can use interpolation method for filling out the gaps between points, to reconstruct an accurate waveform.

SDS1000X-E User Manual Acquisition Mode The acquisition mode is used to control how to generate waveform points from sample points. The oscilloscope provides the following acquisition mode: Normal, Peak Detect, Average and Eres. 1. 2. Press the Acquire button on the front panel to enter the ACQUIRE function menu; Press the Acquisition softkey; then turn the Universal Knob to select the desired acquisition mode and push down the knob to confirm. The default setup is Normal.
SDS1000X-E User Manual within the sample interval to get the envelope of the signal or the narrow pulse of the signal that might be lost. In this mode, signal confusion can be prevented but the noise displayed would be larger. In this mode, the oscilloscope can display all the pulses with pulse widths at least as wide as the sample period. Figure 20 Pulse With 0.1% Duty, Normal Mode Figure 21 Pulse With 0.1% Duty, Peak Detect Mode 47 WWW.SIGLENT.
SDS1000X-E User Manual Average In this mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple samples to reduce the random noise of the input signal and improve the vertical resolution. The greater the number of averages is, the lower the noise will be and the higher the vertical resolution will be but the slower the response of the displayed waveform to the waveform changes will be. The available range of averages is from 4 to 1024 and the default is 16.
SDS1000X-E User Manual Figure 23 With Random Noise, Average Mode Eres This mode uses a kind of ultra-sample technique to average the neighboring points of the sample waveform to reduce the random noise on the input signal and generate much smoother waveforms on the screen. This is generally used when the sample rate of the digital converter is higher than the storage rate of the acquisition memory. Eres mode can be used on both single- shot and repetitive signals and it does not slow waveform update.
SDS1000X-E User Manual Horizontal Format Press the Acquire button on the front panel; then press the XY soft key to set the XY(On) or YT(Off) mode. The default setup is YT. YT It is the normal viewing mode for the oscilloscope. In the Normal time mode, signal events occurring before the trigger are plotted to the left of the trigger point and signal events after the trigger plotted to the right of the trigger point.
SDS1000X-E User Manual obtained should be within quadrant I and IV, namely within (0 to π/2) or (3π/2 to 2π). If the principal axis of the ellipse is within quadrant II and IV, the phase deviation angle obtained should be within quadrant II and III, namely within (π/2 to π) or (π to 3π/2). X-Y function can be used to measure the phase deviation occurred when the signal under test passes through a circuit network. Connect the oscilloscope to the circuit to monitor the input and output signals of the circuit.
SDS1000X-E User Manual Sequence Mode Sequence is also a kind of acquisition mode, which does not display waveform during sampling process. It improves the waveform capture rate, and the maximal capture rate is 400,000 wfs/s. So it can capture the small probability event effectively.
