The Waveform Export utility allows you to export the acquired data to the
following industry-standard formats that can be used by EDA tools:
■ Comma Separated Values File (.csv)
■ Table File (.tbl)
■ Value Change Dump File (.vcd)
■ Vector Waveform File (.vwf)
■ Joint Photographic Experts Group File (.jpeg)
■ Bitmap File (.bmp)
You can also configure the SignalTap II Logic Analyzer to create mnemonic
tables for a group of signals. The mnemonic table feature allows a
predefined name to be assigned to a set of bit patterns, making captured data
more meaningful. See Figure 6.
