MEASUREMENT ICONS FOR DIGITAL OSCILLOSCOPES

摘要

A method and apparatus for displaying measurements of a waveform as icons on an oscilloscope. A plurality of analog acqusition signals C1 may be acquired by the oscilloscope of the invention. These acquisition signals are acquired in accordance with various provided probes and other acquisition hardware (2110) that are in turn controlled by an acquisition control module (2112). The user via a user interface (2115) applies various acquisition control processes to the acquired waveform in accordance with various control variables (2120) provided. Various results data are then provided to, and thereafter output from a pre-processing system (2125), and are inturn acted upon in various post processing functions (2130) employing user defined control variables (2120),resulting in processing data (2135). The post- processed data is then exported and/or imported at (2140) as necessary for further processing by the system (2145) in accordance with control variables (2120). After processing has completed, the various processed data is converted for display at (2150) on a display device (2155).
