P6616 MSO Probe
This unique probe design offers two eight-channel pods. Each
channel ends with a probe tip featuring a recessed ground
for simplified connection to the device under test. The coax
on the first channel of each pod is colored blue making it
easy to identify. The common ground uses an automotive-
style connector making it easy to create custom grounds
for connecting to the device under test. When connecting
to square pins, the P6616 has an adapter that attaches to
the probe head extending the probe ground flush with the
probe tip so you can attach to a header. The P6616 offers
outstanding electrical characteristics, having only 3 pF of
capacitive loading, a 100 kΩ input resistance, and is capable
of acquiring toggle rates >500 MHz and pulses as short as 1
ns in duration.
The P6616 MSO probe oers two eight-channel pods to simplify connecting to
your device.
5. Serial Protocol Triggering and
Analysis (Optional)
On a serial bus, a single signal often includes address, control,
data, and clock information. This can make isolating events of
interest difficult.
Automatic trigger, decode, and search on bus events and
conditions gives you a robust set of tools for debugging serial
buses. The optional serial protocol triggering and analysis
functionality is offered free for a 30-day trial period. This
free trial period starts automatically when the instrument is
powered on for the first time.
Triggering on a specic OUT Token packet on a USB full-speed serial bus. The
yellow waveform is the D+ and the blue waveform is the D-. A bus waveform
provides decoded packet content including Start, Sync, PID, Address, End Point,
CRC, Data values, and Stop.
Serial Triggering
Trigger on packet content such as start of packet, specific
addresses, specific data content, unique identifiers, etc. on
popular serial interfaces such as I

C, SPI, USB 2.0, Ethernet,
CAN, LIN, FlexRay, RS-232/422/485/UART, MIL-STD-1553,
and I

S/LJ/RJ/TDM.
Bus Display
Provides a higher-level, combined view of the individual signals
(clock, data, chip enable, etc.) that make up your bus, making
it easy to identify where packets begin and end and identifying
sub-packet components such as address, data, identi-
fier, CRC, etc.
Bus Decoding
Tired of having to visually inspect the waveform to count
clocks, determine if each bit is a 1 or a 0, combine bits into
bytes, and determine the hex value? Let the oscilloscope do
