Agilent Scope Tip of the Month #10
Jul 16, 2009
Here's The latest Agilent Scope Tip of the Month (#10):
New advances in Infiniium oscilloscopes make them a combination of three instruments: a scope, logic analyzer and protocol analyzer. This gives you several advantages. First, you'll need less space on your bench and less time for set-up. Also, using a single instrument with both serial and analog capabilities, you can trace serial problems back to their root cause - just point to a protocol issue and the screen displays the corresponding waveform. In addition, the latest Infiniium models support not just one protocol, but a range of the most popular ones. So how can you best put these capabilities to work to debug serial designs?
You'll learn how to use features, such as the decode listing and protocol-specific triggering available on the new Infiniium 9000 Series. These tools make it easier to debug designs for serial standards, including I2C, SPI, RS-232, USB and PCIExpress.
