Integrated DVM: Standard 3-digit digital voltmeter
An integrated 3-digit voltmeter is included standard on your
3000T X-Series oscilloscope� The voltmeter operates through the
same probes as the oscilloscope channels� However, the DVM
measurements are made independently from the oscilloscope
acquisition and triggering system so you can make both the DVM
and triggered oscilloscope waveform captures with the same
connection� The voltmeter results are always displayed, keeping
these quick characterization measurements at your fingertips�
Figure 26� DVM and counter takes advantage of separate signal paths
to provide measurements without a trigger, while still using the scope
probes�
Integrated frequency measurements: Standard
8-digit counter and totalizer
Traditional oscilloscope counter measurements offer only five or
six digits of resolution, which may not be enough for the most
critical frequency measurements are being made�
With the 3000T X-Series’ standard 8-digit counter, you can see
your measurements with the precision you would normally expect
only from a standalone counter� Because the integrated counter
measures frequencies up to a wide bandwidth of 1�0 GHz, you can
use it for many high-frequency applications as well�
The counter’s totalizer feature adds another valuable capability
to the oscilloscope� It can count the number of events (totalize),
and it also can monitor the number of trigger-condition-qualified
events� The trigger-qualified events totalizer does not require
an actual trigger to occur� It only requires a trigger-satisfying
event to take place� In other words, the totalizer can monitor
events faster than the trigger rate of a scope, as fast as 25 million
events per second (a function of the oscilloscope’s holdoff time,
which has the minimum of 40 ns)� Figures 27 shows example of a
totalizer counting the number of CAN-FD CRC delimiter bit error
packets that took place in a design�
Figure 27� Totalizer counts the number of events� In addition, it can count
the number of trigger-condition-qualified events as fast as 25 million
events a second�
