Notes for pulse width specifications:
1 The accuracy for duty cycle and pulse width measurements is based on a 3 V square wave input to the DC 3 V range.
2 The pulse width (positive or negative) must be >10 μs. The range of the pulse width is determined by the frequency of the
signal.

Notes for duty cycle and pulse width calculation example:
1 The range of the duty cycle is determined from this equation:
{10 μs × frequency × 100%} to {[1 – (10 μs × frequency)] × 100%}
2 The accuracy of the duty cycle is determined from this equation: [0.3% × (frequency kHz)] + 0.3%
3 The accuracy of the pulse width is determined from this equation: (duty cycle accuracy/frequency) + 0.01 ms
