Statistics Tool
Overview
The Statistics panel displays the results of several basic clock parameters in text format: mean,
minimum, maximum, 1-sigma, peak-to-peak, hits, frequency and duty cycle. Also displayed are the
measured Vstart, Vstop as well as the Vp-p, Vmax and Vmin of the two input channels.
The Statistics panel provides a summary of the statistics from a single histogram of measurements of
the chosen function (period, rise-time, fall-time, positive pulse width and negative pulse width). The tool
reports the clock frequency with 9 digits of precision. Duty cycle is displayed in this tool.
NOTE: This is the only tool that gives a frequency or duty cycle measurement.
The force pulsefind option, when set on, performs a pulsefind after each histogram and displays the
updated voltage information with each run.
