display vectors on)
54616B/16C – 500 MHz on channels 1 and 2 simultaneously (2 GSa/s,
display vectors on)
Acquisition modes Normal, Peak Detect, and Average
Peak detect 1 ns glitch capture
Average Number of averages selectable at 8, 64, and 256
Roll Mode At sweep speeds of 200 ms/div and slower (54615B/16B)
At sweep speeds of 500 ms/div and slower (54616C):
waveform data moves across the display from right to left with no
dead time. Display can be either free-running (non-triggered) or
triggered to stop on a trigger event.
