9 Protocol Analysis
Using the R&S RTH and additional options, you can analyze the following serial proto-
cols:
●
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) - requires option R&S RTH-K1
●
Inter-Integrated circuit bus (I²C) - requires option R&S RTH-K1
●
UART / RS-232 / RS-422 / RS-485 interfaces - require option R&S RTH-K2
●
Controller Area Network (CAN) - requires option R&S RTH-K3
●
CAN with flexible data rate (CAN FD) - requires option R&S RTH-K9
●
Local Interconnect Network (LIN) - requires option R&S RTH-K3
●
Single Edge Nibble Transmission (SENT) - requires option R&S RTH-K10
The analysis of serial data consists of three main steps:
●
Protocol configuration:
Select the protocol type, and configure the input line as well as the protocol-spe-
cific settings.
●
Decoding:
Select the display format of the decoded data. The digitized signal data is dis-
played on the screen together with the decoded content of the messages in combs.
You can scale the signal display and zoom into it to see it in more detail.
You can list the decoded results in tabular form in the "Protocol" mode, and display
selected frames.
●
Triggering:
You can trigger on various events that are typical for the configured bus type, for
example, on start and stop of messages, or on data patterns.
Analysis is performed on analog input channels. The instrument uses the threshold to
convert the analog signal into a logic signal. If MSO option R&S RTH-B1 is installed,
you can also analyze logic channels.
9.1 Basics of Protocol Analysis
This chapter explains in general:
●
Configuration of serial bus signals for decoding,
●
Display of decoded data and their usage for analysis,
●
Usage of symbolic address names (label lists).
