someone known with this secondary ignition waveform ? its a 2022 suzuki jimnny C.O.P , measured with H502 (Hscope) using hantek AT25 probe.
my voltage config is wrong , should divided by 20 , sprak line is around 48kv , all cylinders shows the same waveform
i wonder if it can be diagnose , burn time dewll time etc

If we invert it,....
it still looks terrible but, now, it looks like, possibly, a shorted secondary with, absolutely, no gap to jump. Is this a 2-wire coil? Can you capture a primary voltage waveform? Do you have an amp clamp to capture a current ramp of the coil?

how can i plug primary voltage ? Just back probe the signal wire ?
Back-probe the Coil Control wire. Expect a voltage spike of about 400 volts. Make sure that your scope is rated for voltage of this range. If it isn't, you will have to use an attenuator.
However, this can, only, be done with 2-wire coils. Unfortunately, we do not have direct access to the Coil Control wire on 3 and 4-wire coils. We, only, have access to a transistor that controls the coil.
Are you trying to diagnose problem? Or, are you just trying to understand what you are seeing in waveforms captured from a good, running vehicle?

so what are your suggestion for 3/4 wires coil? just use an amp data ?
do you think perhaps my setup giving me a false measure? HT25COP and H502 (Hscope) ,though i manage to get good signals from man different cars
