P6316 MSO probe
This unique probe design offers two eight-channel pods, simplifying the
process of connecting to the device-under-test. When connecting to square
pins, the P6316 can connect directly to 8×2 square pin headers spaced on
tenth-inch centers. When more attachment flexibility is required, you can
use the included flying lead sets and grabbers to clip onto surface mount
devices or test points. The P6316 offers outstanding electrical
characteristics applying only 8 pF of capacitive loading with 101 kΩ input
impedance.
The P6316 MSO probe offers two eight-channel pods to simplify connecting to your
device.
FilterVu
variable low-pass filter
Tired of being limited to a 20 MHz bandwidth filter in your oscilloscope?
Simply turn on FilterVu and adjust the variable low-pass noise filter. Unlike
other variable low-pass filters, FilterVu filters out the unwanted noise from
your signal while still capturing glitches and other signal details up to the full
bandwidth of the oscilloscope. It does this by showing two waveforms: a
waveform that can be filtered (foreground waveform) and a glitch capture
waveform (background waveform).
The filtered waveform uses a variable low-pass filter to block out noise,
yielding a cleaner waveform to more precisely locate signal edges and
amplitude levels. The result is improved confidence in you cursor
measurements and cleaner documentation of important signal attributes.
When the noise filter is adjusted to the lowest available noise-cutoff
frequency, no more than 1% of high-frequency content that could cause the
oscilloscope to alias will pass through the filter.
The glitch capture waveform shows signal details up to the full bandwidth of
the oscilloscope. The oscilloscope captures pulses as narrow as 5 ns,
using peak-detect min/max sampling, protecting you from missing
unexpected glitches or other high-frequency events.
FilterVu is ideal for repetitive, nonrepetitive, and single-shot events.
Output of DAC Signal - Notice how FilterVu
clearly shows the noise-free steps of the
DAC in the foreground trace (yellow) which has removed all frequencies above 5.5 kHz.
FilterVu also captures and displays high-frequency glitches up to the full bandwidth of the
oscilloscope in the background trace (orange).
Serial 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.
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
2
C, SPI, CAN, LIN, and RS-232/422/485/UART.
Triggering on a specific data packet going across an I
2
C bus. The yellow waveform is
clock and the blue waveform is data. A bus waveform provides decoded packet content
including Start, Address, Read/Write, Data, and Stop.
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 subpacket components such
as address, data, identifier, CRC, etc.
