(internal, external)

 

 

Level Range

Internal

±8 div from center screen

 

Auxiliary

±5 V

Sweep Modes

Auto, triggered, single

 

Trigger Coupling

dc, ac (7 Hz), low frequency reject (50 kHz), high frequency reject (50 kHz).

Trigger Holdoff Range

60 ns - 320 ms

 

Trigger Modes

Edge, Glitch, Pattern, State, Delay by Time, Delay by Events, Violation (

 

Setup/Hold Time, Pulse Width, Transition), Video, Line.

Glitch

Select positive or negative polarity, width. Captures glitches as narrow as 500 ps.

Pattern

Select inputs as High, Low or X (don’t care) to create pattern. Trigger when

 

pattern is entered, exited, present > t, present < t, or present over a range of

 

time. Captures patterns as narrow as 500 ps.

State

Select one channel as clock, specify other inputs as High, Low or X.

 

Logic Type: AND or NAND

 

Delay by Time

Time: 30 ns to 160 ms. The trigger is qualified by an edge. After the delay, a

 

rising/falling edge on any one selected input will generate the trigger.

Delay by Events

Events: 1 to 16,000,000 rising or falling edges. The trigger is qualified by an edge.

 

After the delay, a rising/falling edge on any one selected input will generate the

 

trigger.

 

Violation Trigger

Setup/Hold

Modes: Setup, Hold or Setup and Hold.

 

 

Select Clock, Thresholds, setup and/or

 

 

hold time.

 

Pulse Width

Triggers on pulse width >t, or <t.

 

 

Captures pulses as narrow as 500 ps.

 

Transition

Select Rise Time or Fall Time,

 

 

present > t or present < t, thresholds.

Accuracy (time) for glitch, pulse

1.5 ns - 20 ns: ±(20% setting + 500 ps)

 

width, and time-qualified pattern

20 ns - 160 ms: ±(3% setting + 2 ns)

 

Video Triggering

525 lines/60 Hz (NTSC), 625 lines/50 Hz (PAL), 875 lines/60 Hz. Trigger on Field 1

 

or Field 2, any line. User defined triggering: User can specify sync pulse level,

 

width and polarity, edge number.
