I
2
C/SPI serial trigger and decode (N5423A
or Option LSS on new scope purchases)
This application displays real-time time-
aligned decode of I
2
C and SPI serial buses.
Hardware-accelerated decode means the
scope stays responsive and fast.
This application requires a 4-channel DSO or
4-channel MSO and can use any combination
of the scope or logic acquisition channels.

C-SPI
RS-232/UART serial decode and trigger (N5457A
or Option 232 on new scope purchases)
Does your design include RS-232 or another
type of UART? This application eliminates the
need to manually decode bus traffi c. Using
data captured on the scope or logic chan-
nels, the application lets you easily view the
information sent over a RS-232 or other UART
serial bus.
Display real-time time-aligned decode of
transmit and receive lines. The application
also enables triggering on RS-232/UART
conditions.
This application requires a 4-channel DSO or
4-channel MSO and can use any combination
of the scope or logic acquisition channels.

Segmented memory (N5454A or Option SGM
on new scope purchases)
Segmented memory optimizes available
memory for data streams that have long
dead times between activity. The application
excels at analyzing signal activity associated
with laser pulses, serial buses, and bursty
signals such as radar. View an overlay of all
signal segments, including MSO
channels and serial decode, while highlight-
ing the current segment. Quickly move
between segments to view signal detail as-
sociated with a specifi c segment.

Mask testing (N5455A or Option LMT)
Agilent’s mask test option (Option LMT or
N5455A) for Infi niiVision Series oscilloscopes
provides a fast and easy way to test your
signals to specifi ed standards, and
uncover unexpected signal anomalies, such
as glitches. Mask testing on other oscillo-
scopes is based on software-intensive pro-
cessing technology, which tends to be slow.
Agilent’s Infi niiVision scopes can perform up

to 100,000 real-time waveform pass/fail tests
per second. This provides testing through-
put signifi cantly faster than other mask test
solutions, making valid pass/fail statistics
available almost instantly.
