[time-nuts] ADC sample voting algorithm?

[David]

I always try to calculate things like the standard deviation and
peak-to-peak to get some idea if the measurement is valid.

A DSO with infinite persistence or envelope mode is great for tracking
this sort of thing down during development.  Only toy DSOs will lack
both.
