Basic mathematical functions
In addition to the measurements
discussed above, there are many
mathematical operations you
can perform on your waveforms.
Examples include:
Fourier transform
This math function allows you to
see the frequencies that compose
your signal.
Absolute value
This math function shows the
absolute value (in terms of
voltage) of your waveform.
Integration
This math function computes the
integral of your waveform.
Addition or subtraction
These math functions enable
you to add or subtract multiple
waveforms and display the
resulting signal. Again, this is
a small subset of the possible
measurements and mathematical
functions available on an
oscilloscope.
