To select the real-time sampling mode
In the real- time sampling mode, single waveforms are sampled at
uniformly spaced intervals. See Figure 31.
Use the real- time sampling mode when capturing (non- repetitive)
single-shot or pulse waveforms.
The 3000 Series oscilloscopes provide real-time sampling rates up to
1GSa/s.
To select the Real-Time sampling mode:
1 Press Acquire
.
2 In the Acquire menu, select Sampling to choose the “Real Time”
sampling mode.
In the real- time sampling mode, when the horizontal scale is set to 20 ns
or faster, the oscilloscope uses sine(x)/x interpolation to expand the
horizontal time base.
