The HP E2456A Preprocessor
Interface—At a Glance
The HP E2456A Preprocessor Interface provides a complete interface for
state or timing analysis between any Motorola MC68306 target system and
the following HP logic analyzers:
•
HP 1650A
•
HP 1650B
•
HP 1652B
•
HP 16510A
•
HP 16510B
•
HP 16511B
•
HP 16550A (one- or two-card)
•
HP 16555A (one- or two-card)
•
HP 1660A/61A/62A
•
HP 1660AS/61AS/62AS (with oscilloscope)
The preprocessor interface connects the target microprocessor to the logic
analyzer, and performs any functions unique to the target microprocessor.
The configuration software on the flexible disk sets up the format
specification menu of the logic analyzer for compatibility with the
preprocessor interface. The inverse assembler allows you to obtain displays
of the MC68306 data bus in 68000 core assembly language mnemonics.
The HP E2456A Preprocessor Interface requires the HP E3417A 132-pin QFP
adapter, which clamps over the existing processor, and supports limited
rotation for connecting to target systems with physical layout limitations. The
preprocessor connects to the HP E3417A adapter via a 144-pin full matrix
PGA socket. The HP E2456A does not support the 144-pin TQFP processor
package.
For more information on the logic analyzers or microprocessor, refer to the
appropriate reference manuals for those products.
