Abstract: A digital oscilloscope in which the acquisition/data accumulation is decoupled from
the display of the accumulated date in order to increase the speed at which new data
may be accumulated and displayed. The invention also provides for variable
persistence in the accumulated data so that the displayed image shows the changes in
the sampled event over time. The decay, however, is proportional to population for
each amplitude/time combination in the data. This maintains the statistical integrity
of the data. Further, the data from each channel is assigned a different color and
different populations within the channel's data is assigned a different shade of the
color. These shades are dynamically updated as data from new acquisitions are
accumulated. In order to highlight the population distribution in the rare events,
population saturation levels may be specified.
