Explanation of the causes of dead time and the importance of a high waveform update rate.
All digital oscilloscopes have dead time. As a result, there may be cases where fault signals from products occurring within the dead time cannot be captured. Understanding the dead time in measurements is very important for debugging. This application note explains the causes of dead time and the importance of high waveform update rates. Additionally, we will introduce how the new features of the R&SRTO oscilloscope can improve debugging efficiency. [Contents (excerpt)] ■ What is dead time? - Architecture of digital oscilloscopes - Dead time - Characteristics of digital oscilloscopes ■ What are the effects of dead time? - Invisible fault waveforms - Impact of dead time on measurements - Test time for rare fault signals, etc. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
