NOTE. The P
ositive Width measurement is available as an automatic measurement
in the Measure Menu. (See page 88, Taking Measurements.)
NOTE. The
Positive Width measurement also displays when you select the
Single-Cycle Square option in the AutoSet Menu. (See page 81, Square Wave
or Pulse.)
Measuring Rise Time
After m
easuring the pulse width, you decide that you need to check the rise time
of the pulse. Typically, you measure rise time between the 10% and 90% levels of
the waveform. To measure the rise time, follow these steps:
1. Turn the Horizontal Sc ale (seconds/division) knob to display the rising edge
of the waveform.
2. Turn the Vertical Scale (volts/division) and Vertical Position knobs to set
the waveform amplitude to about five divisions.
3. Push the 1 (channel 1 menu) button.
4. Pus
h Vol ts/Div ► Fine.
5. Turn the Vertical Scale (volts/division) knob to set the waveform amplitude
to
exactly five divisions.
6. Turn the Vertical Position knob to center the waveform; position the baseline
o
f the waveform 2.5 divisions below the center graticule.
7. Push the Cursor button to see the Cursor Menu.
8. Push Type ► Time.
9. Push Source ► CH1.
10. Push the Cursor 1 option button.
