Chapter 1: Agilent Technologies 16700A/B-Series Logic Analysis System
Starting Measurements from External Triggers
NOTE: When Port Out is disabled, the selectable fields associated with TYPE and
POLARITY are also disabled and thus have no meaning.
The Port Out signal can be Armed by any measurement module in the
logic analysis frame, or, by one of four Flags.
Port Out Signal Characteristics
The Port Out Signal is designed to drive a 50 Ohm Load. It is highly
recommended that, for good signal quality, the Port Out Signal be
terminated in 50 Ohms to Ground.
VOH (Output High Level)= >2.0 V into a 50 Ohm Load to Ground.
VOL (Output Low Level)= <0.5 V into a 50 Ohm Load to Ground.
Pulse Width in Pulsed Mode= Approximately 60 nanoseconds to 140 nanoseconds.
Triggering External Instruments
1. Connect the PORT OUT BNC connector on the analysis frame to the arm
or trigger input of the external instrument.
2. From the Intermodule window, select the Port Out field, then configure
the Port Out parameters. Included in the these parameters is a selection to
arm Port Out by any measurement module in the logic analysis frame, or,
by one of four Flags.
When configured, the Port Out Armed by selection is listed next to the
Port Out field.
