Practical approach makes TSS measurement simple
Abstract
Tangential signal sensitivity (TSS) refers to the condition in which a signal pulse noise waveform on an oscilloscope protrudes above a noise baseline such that the bottom edge of the combined terms just touches the top edge of the baseline ratio. TSS measurements help to evaluate low-level signal performance. This paper describes a simple repetable technique (the simple scope method) that can make these measurements more practical.
