Traditional Scopes with Advanced Triggers
(assuming the update rate is fast enough to see
what you want to trigger on):
1� Determine what trigger makes the most sense for the
signal you are trying to isolate� In this case, we’ll use a
runt trigger first�
2� Select trigger menu
3� Press trigger type
4� Select runt Trigger
5� Select your source
6� Select the runt’s polarity
7� Adjust your low threshold to below the runt
8� Adjust your high threshold to above the runt
9� Select when you’ll trigger – in this case, we want to
trigger on the exact pulse width of the runt
10� Select cursors
11� Move cursor a to the rising edge of the pulse at the
50% mark
12� Move cursor b to the falling edge of the pulse at the
50% mark
13� Obtain the delta time (pulse width) between the
cursors
14� Adjust the runt width to be equal to the pulse width
that was measured
Steps to trigger on a runt signal:
3000T X-Series:
1� Draw box on the runt
2� Select “must intersect”
3� Draw a second box if needed to further isolate the runt
from other runts
4� Select “must intersect” or “must not intersect”
In some cases you may have to select the appropriate source
if it wasn’t already selected�
