:CALibration :INTerpolator :AUTO PM6680B/85
8 <Boolean>| ONCE
Calibration of Interpolator
The PM6680B/85 are reciprocal counters that uses an interpolating technique to
increase the resolution. In time measurements, for example, interpolation in
-
creases the resolution from 100 ns to 0.25 ns.
The counter calibrates the interpolators automatically once for every measurement
when this command is ON. When this command is OFF, the counter does no cali
-
brations but uses the values from the last preceding calibration. The intention of
this command is to turn off the auto calibration for applications that dump mea
-
surements into the internal memory. This will increase the measurement speed.
