To select the equivalent-time sampling mode
In the equivalent-time sampling mode (also known as repetitive sampling),
multiple waveforms are sampled using randomly differing delays from the trigger
to yield higher effective sampling rates.
In the equivalent-time sampling mode, the
effective sample rate
can be greater
because the time between samples in the acquisition is shorter.
Equivalent-time sampling mode requires a repetitive waveform with a stable
trigger.
Use the equivalent-time sampling mode to capture repetitive high-frequency
signals at greater sample rates than are available in the real-time sampling mode.
Do not use the equivalent-time mode for single-shot events or pulse waveforms.
The benefits of the equivalent-time sampling mode are negligible when sample
rates are the same as available in the real-time sampling mode.
In the 1000B Series oscilloscopes, the equivalent time sampling mode can achieve
up to 40 ps of horizontal resolution (equivalent to 25 GSa/s).
