Synchronizing Digitizer Measurements
The Digitizer function requires
N675xA, and N677xA.
When a remote interface measurement is in progress, the front panel display may
indicate "-- -- -- -- --". Front panel measurements resume when the remote
measurement completes.
Measurement Types
In addition to the DC (or average) measurements discussed under
following digitized measurements are also available. These can only be measured using the
corresponding SCPI command.
ACDC - is a calculation that returns the total RMS measurement (AC + DC).
HIGH - is a calculation that generates a histogram of the waveform using 16 bins between the
maximum and minimum data points. The bin containing the most data points above the 50% point is
the high bin. The average of all the data points in the high bin is returned as the High level. If no high
bin contains more than 1.25% of the total number of acquired points, then the maximum data point is
returned.
LOW - is a calculation that generates a histogram of the waveform using 16 bins between the
maximum and minimum data points. The bin containing the most data points below the 50% point is
the low bin. The average of all the data points in the low bin is returned as the Low level. If no low bin
contains more than 1.25% of the total number of acquired points, then the minimum data point is
returned.
MAX - is the maximum value of the digitized measurement.
MIN - is the minimum value of the digitized measurement.
Array queries are also available to return ALL values in the voltage and current measurement buffer.
No averaging is applied, only raw data is returned from the buffer.
