Average

Meas. mode:
TDR
Waveform type:
TDR
Amplitude Toolbar
TDR Toolbars

Measure the mean value of the data sampled from the entire displayed waveform or a single cycle. The record length of the waveform determines the number of data samples used for the measurement. The measurement can be restricted to a measurement region. Annotation labels are placed on the waveform to mark the average value. Average is most suitable for single-valued waveforms. In TDR/TDT mode, the measurement can be performed on any waveform that is displayed in one of the following content windows:

  • Waveform
  • Time-Ohms
  • Time-Volts
  • Time-%
