Description Item
Signal Selection
Specifies the channel that will be monitored by the peak detector. Channel
Specifies the signal that will be monitored by the peak detector. Signal
Detector Parameters
Specifies the action that occurs when the detector is tripped. Action
Specifies how many cycles will be executed before the detector begins to monitor
the selected signals. This allows the signals to stabilize before they are monitored. Enable After
Specifies how much the signal must increase or decrease before a peak or valley
is determined. Sensitivity settings should be used to prevent signal noise from
being misinterpreted as peaks or valleys. Sensitivity
Specifies a tolerance band for the peaks and valleys. If a peak or valley occurs
outside the tolerance band, the action (specified in the Action list) occurs. Tolerance
Specifies how the upper and lower reference values are established. The
selections are Default and User-specified. Reference Type
Default—Basic TestWare uses the first peak and valley values as the reference.
User-specified—The user specifies the upper and lower reference values which
are kept unchanged until the test stops.
