Abstract: A measuring device for triggering a test signal with a superposed noise signal includes a trigger unit, which is connected to a recording unit, where the test signal with respectively superposed noise signal is supplied to both. The trigger unit outputs a trigger signal to the recording unit as soon as the test signal with superposed noise signal has completely run through a hysteresis range. The trigger unit is connected to a hysteresis adjustment unit, where the hysteresis adjustment unit specifies a hysteresis range to the trigger unit, and where the hysteresis range specified by the hysteresis adjustment unit is adjustable.

In one procedural stage, a plurality of timing points of the data signal are processed in parallel as follows: resolving the timing points of the data signal by a nominal clock pulse; estimating the bit-period deviations for the adjusted timing points; and injecting the nominal clock pulse to the estimated bit-period deviations.

Abstract: A measuring device for displaying several time-variable electrical signals. The measuring device includes a front panel, which provides various operating elements, with a screen, which provides several display fields. The first display field provides at least one window, which corresponds to a given measurement channel, where the time-variable electrical signal is presented in this first display field and can be switched as a maximized display to the second display field. For each signal presented in maximized format in the second display field, a status field is then displayed in the corresponding first display field.

Abstract: Measurement points for display on a two-dimensional pixel-based display device are formed by scanned and digitized measurement values. To this end, the resolution of each measurement point according to time and/or value is higher than the resolution of the two-dimensional pixel-based display device. The measurement points are connected into a continuous measurement point curve if they are not located on directly adjoining pixels. In order to determine the pixels to be depicted of the continuous measurement point curve between two measurement points not located on directly adjoining pixels, the positions of the adjoining measurement points within the associated pixels are taken into consideration.

The method includes generating from the digitized measurement signal a digital triggering signal for the digital triggering of the digital recording of the measurement signal, and performing band-limitation of the noise signal superimposed on the digitized measurement signal via a low-pass filtering before the digital triggering signal is generated. The bandwidth of the low-pass filtering is adjusted dependent upon edge steepness of the measurement signal, in order to reduce variance ?t2 in jitter of the digital triggering signal.
