2. Selecting an FFT Window

The oscilloscopes provide four FFT windows. Each window is a trade-off between freque ncy re so lut ion a nd am pl itud e ac curac y. What you want to me asur e and your source signals characteristics help determine which window to use. Use the following guidelines to select the best window.

Table 2- 7 FFT Windows

Window Features Best for measuring

Rectangle

Best frequency Resolution and worst magnitude resolution. This is essentially the same as no window.

Transients or bursts, the signal levels before and after the event are nearly equal. Equal-amplitude sine waves with fixed frequencies. Broadband random noise with a relatively slow varying spectrum.

Hanning Hamming

Better frequency, poorer magnitude accuracy than Rectangular.

Hamming has slightly

better frequency resolution than Hanning.

Sine, periodic, and narrow-band random noise. Transients or bursts where the signal levels before and after the events are significantly different.

Blackman

Best magnitu de, worst frequency resolution.

Single frequency waveforms, to Find higher order harmonics.

Key points for FFT

Signals that have a DC component or offset can cause incorrect FFT waveform

component magnitude values. To minimize the DC component, choose AC Coupli ng on the sour c e signal.

To reduce random noise and aliases components in repetitive or single-shot events, set the oscilloscope acquisition mode to average.

T o display FFT wa veforms with a large dynamic ran ge, use the dBVrms scale. T he

dBVrms scale displays component magnitudes using a log scale.

Key points: FFT Resolution: the quotient between

sampling rate and number of FFT

points. With a fixed FFT points, the lower sampling rate can insure better resolution.

Nyquist Frequency

The highest frequency that any real-

time digitizing oscilloscope can acquire

with

out aliasing. It’s normally half of the sample rate. This frequency is called

the Nyquist frequency. Frequency above the Nyquist frequency will be under

sampled, causing a situation known as aliasing.

To Set up the Trigger System

The trigger determines when the oscilloscope starts to acquire data and display a waveform. When a trigger is set up properly, it can convert unstable displays or blank screens into meaningful waveforms.

When the oscilloscope st arts to acquire a wave form, it collects enough data so that it can draw the w av eform to the left of the trigger point. The oscillosco pe continu es to acquire data while waiting for the trigger condition to occur. After it detects a trigger, the oscilloscope continues to a cquire enou gh data s o that it can dr aw the waveform to the right of the trigger point .

The trigger control area on the front panel includes a knob and three buttons:

: The knob that set the trigger level; press the knob and the level will

reset to zero.

Trigger Key points

1. Trigger Source: Trigger can occur from several sources: Input channels (CH1

and CH2), AC Line, Ext.

 CH1 or CH2: It is the most commonly used trigger sou rce . The channel works

when selected as a trigger source whatever displayed or not.

 Ext Trig: The instrument can be triggered from a third source while acquiring

data from CH1 and CH2. For example, to trigger from an external clock or with a signal from another part of the test circuit. The Ext trigger sources use an external trigger signal con nected to the EXT T RIG connector. Ext uses the signal directly; it has a trigger level range of -1.2V to +1.2V.

 AC Line: AC power can be used to display signals related to the power line

frequency, such as lighting equipment and power supply devices. The oscilloscope gets triggered on its AC power input; an AC trigger signal i s not required. When AC Line is selected as trigger source, the oscilloscope automatically set coupling to DC, set trigger level to 0V.

2. Sweep Mode: The sweep mode determines how the oscilloscope behaves in the abse nce of a tr igger event. The oscilloscope provides three trigger modes: Auto, Normal, and Single.

 Auto: This sweep mode allows the oscilloscope to acquire waveforms even

when it does not detect a trigger condition. If no trigge r condition occurs while the oscilloscope is waiting for a specific period (as determined by the time-base setting), it will force itself to trigger.

When forcing invalid triggers, the oscilloscope cannot synchronize the waveform, and the waveform seems to roll across the display. If valid triggers occur, the display becomes stable on the screen.

Any factor results in the un-stability of waveforms can be detected by Auto Trigger, such as the output of Power supply.

NOTE: When horizontal control is set under 50 ms/div, Auto mode allows the oscilloscope not to capture trigger signal.

 Normal: The Normal mode allows the oscilloscope to acquire a wavef orm only

when it is triggere d. If no trig ger occurs, the os cilloscope keeps waiting, and the

www.GlobalTestSupply.com

RIGOL

User’s Guide for DS1000E, DS1000D Series

2-52

previous waveform, if any, will remain on the display.

 Single: In Single mode, after pressing the RUN/STOP key, the oscilloscope

waits for trigger. While the trigger occurs, the oscilloscope acquires one waveform then stop.

3. Coupling: Trigger coupling determines which signal component passing to the trigger circuit. Coupling types include AC, DC, LF Reject and HF Reject.

 AC: AC coupling blocks DC components and attenuates the signal below 10Hz.  DC: DC coupling passes both AC and DC components.  LF Reject: LF Reject coupling blocks DC component, and attenuates all

signal with a frequency lower than 8 kHz.

 HF Reject: HF Reject coupling attenuates all signals with a frequency higher

than 150 kHz.

4. Pre-trigger/delayed trigger: The data collected before and after trigger.

The trigger position is typically set at the horizontal center of the screen. In the full-screen display the 6div data of pre-trigger and delayed trigger can be surveyed. Mor e data of pr e-trigger and 1s delayed trigger can be surveyed by adjusting the horizontal

knob.

This feature is very useful to study th e events that led up to the trigger point. Everything to the right of the trigger point is called post-trigger informati on. Th e delay range (pre-trigger and post-trigger information) depends on the sweep speed selected.

5. Adjustable trigger sensitivity: To avoid the influence of noise from the

physical world, and get the stable trigger, the trigger circuit has adopted Stickiness. In DS1000E, DS1000D series, the stickiness is adjustable from

0.1div-1.0div, which means when it sets to 1.0div, the trigger circuit will not affect a ny sig na l wit h pe ak-peak amplitude less than 1.0div, so as to avoid the influence of the noise.

Key Points

Real-time Sampling: The oscilloscope has Real-

time sampling rate up to

1GSa/s. At the time base 5

0ns or faster, the oscilloscopes use the sine(x)/x

interpolation to expand the horizontal time base.

Equivalent Sampling: Known as Repetitive sampling to get up to 4

0ps of

horizontal resolution (equivalent 25

Gsa/s). This mode is good for observing

repetitive signals, and it is not recommended for single-shot or pulse.

Normal Acquisition: Oscilloscope acquires signal by equal time interval. Average Acquisition: Apply averaging to your signal to remove uncorrelated

noise an d improve measur e ment acc uracy. Reduces random or u ncorrelated noise

in the signal displa y. The averaged w av ef orm is a run ning a v er a ge o ver a specified

number of acquisitions from 2 to 256.

Peak Detect Acquisition:

Peak Detect mode captures the maximum and

minimum values of a signal. Finds highest and lowest record points over many acquisitions.
