Making Measurements 4
Agilent 3000 Series Oscilloscopes User’s Guide 91
Vmax (Maximum Voltage)
The maximum amplitude. The most positive peak voltage measured over
the entire waveform. See Figure 40 on page 90.
Vmin (Minimum Voltage)
The minimum amplitude. The most negative peak voltage measured over
the entire waveform. See Figure 40 on page 90.
Vavg (Average Voltage)
The arithmetic mean over the entire waveform.
Vamp (Amplitude Voltage = Vtop - Vbase)
Voltage between Vtop and Vbase of a waveform. See Figure 40 on page 90.
Vtop (Top Voltage)
Voltage of the waveform's flat top, useful for square and pulse waveforms.
See Figure 40 on page 90.
Vbase (Base Voltage)
Voltage of the waveform's flat base, useful for square and pulse
waveforms. See Figure 40 on page 90.
