ADVANCED DEBUG TOOLS
The WaveSurfer 510 includes
the advanced debug tools which
makes it an unparalleled debug and
analysis machine. The high sample
rate of 10 GS/s on all 4 channels,
32 Mpts of memory, sequence
mode segmented memory, history
mode waveform playback, 13
additional math functions, and
2 simultaneous math traces, all
included in this powerful debug
package, enable the WaveSurfer
510 to perform advanced analysis
on long captures with 10x
oversampling to nd the root
cause of problems.
With 10 GS/s and 16 Mpts per channel every detail of
a signal will be captured and displayed. In 4 channel
operation 1.6ms of data can be captured at full sample
rate, in 2 channel mode, 3.2ms, to ensure no detail or
anomaly is missed.
Advanced math and measurements capabilities allow
deeper analysis. Included functions are absolute
value, average (summed or continuous), derivative,
difference, envelope, enhanced resolution, exp (base
e), exp (base 10), FFT, floor, integral, invert, log (base
e), log (base 10), product, ratio, reciprocal, rescale, roof,
square, square root, sum, trend and zoom.
Congure and view 2 simultaneous math traces, each
math trace can perform dual math operation enabling
complex analysis and faster troubleshooting.
Display up to 6 measurement parameters together
with statistics, including mean, minimum, maximum,
standard deviation, and total number. Each occurrence
of each parameter is measured and added to the sta-
tistics table. Histicons provide a fast, dynamic view of
parameters and waveshape characteristics. Parameter
gates dene the location for measurement on the
source waveform.

Advanced Waveform Capture
with Sequence Mode
Use Sequence mode to store up to
5,000 triggered events as “segments”
into memory. This can be ideal when
capturing many fast pulses in quick
succession or when capturing events
separated by long time periods.
Sequence mode provides timestamps
for each acquisition and minimizes
dead-time between triggers to less than
1 μ s. Combine Sequence mode with
advanced triggers to isolate rare events
over time and analyze afterwards.
History Mode Waveform Playback
Scroll back in time using History Mode to view previous waveforms and isolate anomalies. Use cursors and measurement
parameters to quickly nd the source of problems. History mode is always available with a single button press, no need to
enable this mode and never miss a waveform.

Trigger
Powerful, flexible triggers designed
by people who know the standards,
with the unique capabilities you want
to isolate unusual events. Conditional
data triggering permits maximum
flexibility and highly adaptable error
frame triggering is available to isolate
error conditions. Efciently acquire
bursted data using Sequence Mode to
maximize the oscilloscope's memory
usage. Sequence Mode enables the
oscilloscope to ignore idle time and
acquire only data of interest.
Decode
Decoded protocol information is color-
coded to specic portions of the serial
data waveform and transparently
overlaid for an intuitive, easy-to-
understand visual record. All decoded
protocols are displayed in a single
time-interleaved table. Touch a row in
the interactive table to quickly zoom

column header to create lter criteria,
as is commonly done in spreadsheets.

High-performance Mixed
Signal Capabilities
Embedded controller design and debug
involves capturing and viewing a
number of different types of signals.
These signals are typically a mix of
analog, digital, and serial data wave-
forms from a combination of analog
sensors, microcontrollers and peripheral
devices. With the ability to capture digital
signals with speeds up to 250 MHz
and long memory of 10 Mpts/Ch the
WaveSurfer 510 provides unmatched
mixed signal performance. The
WaveSurfer 510 is the ideal tool for test-
ing embedded systems with 8-bit micro-
controllers or slower digital signals.
With 18 digital inputs each with
250 MHz maximum input frequency
and 10 Mpts/Ch memory, the
WaveSurfer 510 is an outstanding value
and provides a complete set of tools for
embedded system testing.
Extensive Triggering
The WaveSurfer 510 has extensive
digital trigger capabilities. Normal oscil-
loscope triggers will operate on digital in-
puts. Cross-pattern triggering allows for
simple or complex trigger patterns to be
setup with any combination of analog
and digital channels. Event triggering
can be congured to arm on an analog
signal and trigger on a digital pattern.
Quick Mixed Signal Setup,
Easy-to-use
Unlike a traditional Logic Analyzer, the
WaveSurfer 510 is easy to use. A simple
connection links the oscilloscope with
the digital inputs so users can start
viewing signals and begin debugging
quickly. In addition, all standard
oscilloscope tools are readily
accessible. Signal debug is simple,
using standard oscilloscope tools,
such as cursors, measurement
parameters, and zooming.
EMBEDDED CONTROLLER DESIGN AND DEBUG
Teledyne LeCroy’s versatile WaveSurfer 510 mixed signal oscilloscope combines the powerful
WaveSurfer 510 with the exibility of digital inputs using the MS-250. In addition, the many
triggering and decoding options turn the WaveSurfer 510 into an all-in-one analog, digital, and
serial data trigger, acquisition, and debug machine.

Simple Frequency Domain Analysis
Get better insight to the frequency
content of any signal with use of
the Spectrum Analyzer mode on the
WaveSurfer 510. This mode provides a
spectrum analyzer style user interface
with controls for start/stop frequency
or center frequency and span. The
unique peak search automatically
labels spectral components and pres-
ents frequency and level in an interac-
tive table. Utilize up to 20 markers to
automatically identify harmonics and
monitor how the spectrum changes
over time using the spectrogram which
can display a 2D or 3D history of the
frequency content.

Measurements
Quickly measure and analyze the
operating characteristics of power
conversion devices and circuits with
the Power Analyzer option. Critical
power switching device measurements,
control loop modulation analysis,
and line power harmonic testing
are all simplied with a dedicated
user interface and automatic
measurements. Areas of turn-on,
turn-off, and conduction loss are all
identied with color-coded waveform
overlays for faster analysis.
Power Analyzer provides quick and easy
setup of voltage and current inputs and
makes measurements as simple as the
push of a button. Tools are provided to
help reduce sources of measurement
errors and the measurement
parameters provide details of single
cycle or average device power losses.
Beyond the advanced power loss
measurement capabilities, the Power
Analyzer modulation analysis
capabilities provide insight to
understand control loop response to
critical events such as a power supply’s
soft start performance or step response
to line and load changes.
The Line Power Analysis tool allows
simple and quick pre-compliance
testing to EN 61000-3-2.
