Sometimes, you only want to analyze those signal components that meet certain criteria or occur at certain times within an acquisition. This is not too difficult for a single acquisition, but what if ...

It is no secret that digital oscilloscopes are sampled data instruments and do not acquire a continuous record of the input signal. We know from sampling theory that the input signal, properly sampled ...

New features lead to new diagnotic and testing techniques. This is especially true for oscilloscopes that have changed over the years as new features have been added. This TechXchange includes content ...
