Current Consumption Measurement Trigger Condition Setting dialog box [E2]


This dialog box is used to set trigger conditions in the Measuring Current Consumption panel [E2][Simulator].

Current Consumption Measurement Trigger Condition Setting Dialog Box

 

This section describes the following.

[How to open]

-

On the Measuring Current Consumption panel [E2][Simulator], click the button on the toolbar.

[Description of each area]

(1)

[Use trigger function]

Specify whether to use the trigger function.

(2)

[Trigger action settings] area

Set the operation of the E2 emulator on detection of the trigger.

(a)

[Action when detecting a trigger]

Select the operation on detection of the trigger from the following drop-down list.

Stop program

Stop execution of the program.

Output external trigger signal

Output the external trigger signal by using the function for output of an external trigger signal from the extended interface of the E2 emulator.

(b)

[Channel]

When "Output external trigger signal" is selected for [Action when detecting a trigger], select "ch0" or "ch1" as the external trigger output channel of the extended interface of the E2 emulator.

(c)

External trigger output type

Select [High pulse] or [Hold High level during the current meets the condition] as the type of signal for output as the external trigger.

When [High pulse] is selected, specify the width of the pulse as a decimal value between 1 and 65535 (in microseconds).

(3)

[Trigger condition settings] area

Set the trigger conditions.

(a)

[Condition]

Select the type of change in values for current as the trigger condition from the following drop-down list.

Over threshold

Detect the moment when the current being measured becomes or exceeds a specified value.

Under Threshold

Detect the moment when the current being measured becomes or falls below a specified value.

In range

Detect the moment when the current being measured enters a specified range of values.

Out of Range

Detect the moment when the current being measured leaves a specified range of values.

(b)

[Current value]

Specify the specific value or range of values for current to serve as the trigger condition in microamperes.

Specify one value for current when "Over threshold" or "Under Threshold" is selected for [Condition], and two values for current when "In range" or "Out of Range" is selected for [Condition].

Caution

For a range of current values, the value entered in the left field for entry must be lower than that in the right field.

(c)

[Specify detecting width]

When "Over threshold", "Under Threshold", or "In range" is selected for [Condition], specify whether the trigger is only detected when the change in the value for current continues for a specific period or at the instant the required change in the value is detected.

To select detection of the trigger, select the check box and specify the condition for the interval and the interval.

<1>

Condition for the interval

Select the condition for the interval from the following drop-down list.

Over threshold

Detect the trigger when the condition specified for [Condition] continues to be satisfied for at least the specified interval.

In range

Detect the trigger only when the condition specified for [Condition] continues to be satisfied within the specified interval.

<2>

Interval

Specify a multiple of the sampling time selected for [Sampling time] in the Current Consumption Measurement Condition Setting dialog box [E2].

The actual interval is the specified multiple of the sampling time.

[Function buttons]
