Speed Summary
The following table summarizes the time
that can be gained when fine tuning the
measurement process.
The normal dead time between frequency
measurements is approximately as fol

lows:
48.8 ms for the PM6680B.
85 ms for the PM6681.
75 ms for the PM6685.

ual.)

Turning the real-time calculations on/off will not affect the dead time because the
calculations are still done inside the measurement loop during the output of data.
*
It takes longer time for PM6681 to determine trigger levels than for PM6680B,
why? The reason is that PM6681 must find the correct level from 16 times as many
triggerlevel setting steps than thePM6680B/85 (1.25 mV steps versus 20mV steps).
