Text | TERM | DEFINITION |
Width | Pulse Width | The interval between the first and second signal crossings of the mesial line. |
Rise | Rise time | The interval between the first signal crossing of the proximal line to the first signal crossing of the distal line. |
Fall | Fall time | The interval between the last signal crossing of the distal line to the last signal crossing of the proximal line. |
Period | Pulse Period | The interval between two successive pulses (reciprocal of the Pulse Repetition Frequency). |
PRFreq | Pulse Repetition Frequency | The number of cycles of a repetitive signal that take place in one second. |
Duty C | Duty Cycle | The ratio of the pulse on-time to off-time. |
Offtime | Off-time | The time a repetitive pulse is off (equal to the pulse period minus the pulse width). |
Peak | Peak Power | The maximum power level of the captured waveform. |
Pulse | Pulse Power | The average power level across the pulse width, defined by the intersection of the pulse rising and falling edges with the mesial line. |
Oversh | Overshoot | A distortion following a major transition (the difference between the maximum amplitude of the overshoot and the top line). |
Avg | Average Power | The equivalent heating effect of a signal. |
IEEETop | Top Amplitude | The amplitude of the top line (see IEEE definitions). |
IEEEBot | Bottom Amplitude | .The amplitude of the base line (see IEEE definitions). |
Skew | Skew | The time between the mesial level of a pulse on one channel and a pulse on a second channel. |
EdgeDly | Edge Delay | The time between the left edge of the display and the first mesial transition level of either slope on the waveform. |
Rise | Rise-time | The interval between the first signal crossing of the proximal line to the first signal crossing of the distal line. |
