Minimum

Minimum is the minimum amplitude of the waveform's displayed power or voltage.

The minimum level is taken directly from the histogram data. The measurement can be restricted to a region. A level annotation label is placed at the minimum result. The entire screen is the interval over which the measurement is made.

The measurement can be performed on any waveform that is displayed in one of a Waveform content windows.
