Description
Hi,
As an electronic engineer I think the chronogram object is very useful but I think there is a mistake in the way the parameters are used to draw the shape.
When you specify the timing information in the data index (I use the french release and it is named donnée I suppose that in english it is data) you specify the duration of the signal. In the parameter index you specify the rise and fall time of that signal. When the signal is drawing the rising time and falling times are added to the duration. That is the problem, the rising and falling time are degradation of the signal they should be substracted from the duration. Say you define a signal wich is 2 time units high and three time units low. If the rise and fall time are 0 (perfect circuit) the overall period is 5 time units. If the signal is fed by a non perfect circuit the rise and fall time will increase but the total period should not change. Otherwise when you increase/decrease rising/falling time you modify the signal period. ______ ______ | |____________| ______ ______ / ____________/
Rising time should be substracted from up duration and fall time should be substracted from down duration.
