Front-Panel
Reference
Bandwidth Limit
(HF
Reject):
Provides low
pass
filter
with
a
-
3
dB
point
at
approximately
30
MHz for
both triggering and sipal
display. Can
be selected
for
each
vertical
input individually.
LF
Reject Provides
high
pass
frlter with
a
-
3
dB
point
at approximately
450Hzfor
triggering
and
vertical signal. Can be selected
for each vertical
input
individuatly.
ac
Coupling:
Provides
high-pass
filter with
a
-
3 dB
point
at
approximately
90
Hz
for both triggering and signal display.
Can be
selected
for each
vertical input
individually.
ECI./TIL
Prcsets:
Vertical deflection
factor, coupling,
offset,
and trigger
level
can
be
preset independently
on
both
channels
for ECL and
TTL
levels.
Eltective
Resolution:
The maximum sample rate and the number of bits
in
an oscilloscope's
digitizer
are too often used
for
comparing
oscilloscopes.
These specifications,
however, do
not
describe
performance under
dynamic
signal
conditions.
Effective
Resolution
is a figure of
merit
that
describes
the digitizing
oscilloscope's
performance
under
dynamic
conditions,
and
is measured
using the sinewave curve
fit
test.
This method
considers:
o
Quantization
error
o Non-linearities(including
preamp
and A/D)
o
System
noise
o Frequency ofinput
signal
All
of these
affect
the effective
resolution
of the
instrument, Some
manufacturers specify
effective
bits using half-scale
sinewaves.
While
the
effective
bits
performance using
half-scale
testing is overstated
when
compared
to
full-scale testing,
Hewlett-Packard publishes
both
sets of
numbers
for
the 54510A
so that,
when
comparing
effective bits
performance between
digitizing
oscilloscopes,
a
fair
comparison
can
be
made.
