Abstract
A method of analyzing a sample waveform in the time domain. Firstly, a periodic wave, such as a sinusoidal wave, is inputted into a waveform processing module for obtaining a sample waveform. Next, a detection of a number of peaks of the sample waveform is performed. A determination is then made as to whether the period of the sample waveform is obtainable from the peaks of the sample waveform. If not obtainable, it indicates the waveform processing module is malfunctioning. If obtainable, a determination is then made as to whether the period of the sample waveform is equal to the predicted period. According to this determination, it indicates whether the waveform processing module is functioning.
