Measuring P ropagation Delay
You suspect that the memory timing in a microprocessor circuit is marginal. Set
up the oscilloscope to measure the propagation delay between the chip-select
signal and the data output of the memory device.

To set up to measure propagation delay, follow these steps:
1. Push the AutoSet button to trigger a stable display.
2. Adjust the horizontal and vertical controls to optimize the display.
3. Push the Cursor button to see the Cursor Menu.
4. Push Type ► Time.
5. Push Source ► CH1.
6. Push the Cursor 1 option button.
7. Turn the multipurpose knob to place a cursor on the active edge of the
chip-select signal.
