Logic Analysis for Tracking Real-time System Operation
Automate measurement setup and
quickly gain diagnostic clues
16800 Series logic analyzers make
it easy for you to get up and
running quickly by automating
your measurement setup process.
In addition, the logic analyzer’s
setup/hold window (or sampling
position) and threshold voltage
settings are automatically
determined so you can capture
data on high-speed buses with the
highest accuracy. Auto Threshold
and Sample Position mode allow
you to...
• Obtain accurate and reliable
measurements
• Save time during measurement
setup
• Gain diagnostic clues and
identify problem signals
quickly
• Scan all signals and buses
simultaneously or just a few
• View results as a composite
display or as individual signals
• See skew between signals
and buses
• Find and fix inappropriate
clock thresholds
• Measure data valid windows
• Identify signal integrity
problems related to rise times,
fall times, data valid window
widths
Identify problem signals over
hundreds of channels simultaneously
As timing and voltage margins
continue to shrink, confidence
in signal integrity becomes an
increasingly vital requirement
in the design validation process.
Eye scan lets you acquire signal
integrity information on all
the buses in your design, under
a wide variety of operating
conditions, in a matter of
minutes. Identify problem signals
quickly for further investigation
with an oscilloscope. Results can
be viewed for each individual
signal or as a composite of
multiple signals or buses.
Extend the life of your equipment
Easily upgrade your 16800 Series
logic analyzer. “Turn on”
additional memory depth and
state speed when you need more.
Purchase the capability you
need now, then upgrade as your
needs evolve.
