finding at what time does 2 waveform cross each other

Hi,

In calculator we have a function named "cross" which gives the time at which the respective signal crosses a set value(constant).

if one of the waveform was constant, I would have taken the average value of it and compare the 1st waveform with these average value using cross function.

But what if both the waveforms are random ?

How can i know at what time does the 2 random waveform cross each other? is there any direct function which i can use?

Regards,

Jagdish

Hi Jagdish,

Subtract one waveform from the other, and then use cross to see when it crosses 0.

Andrew.

Hi Jagdish,

In the cross function, you could use the difference of the 2 waveforms as signal and then set the threshold value to 0.

Thanks Andrew, I did the same so that my work is not stopped. But I was looking if there is any direct function.

Hi Jagdish,

I don't understand why you'd need a "direct" function to do this - this is precisely the kind of expression that would be normal. It would seem an over-complication to provide a special function just to handle this specific case. The overall expression wouldn't be any shorter either!

Hi Andrew,

I totally agree with you, but just out of curiosity, I wanted to know if there is any direct function available.

Thanks & regards,

Jagdish
