Peak voltage is a voltage waveform that is measured from the horizontal axis at the 0 height reference mark to the top of the waveform, known as the crest of the waveform. It is important to note that there is a distinction between peak voltage and peak-to-peak voltage. Peak voltage measures the positive peak […]
