Benchtop Logic Analyzers
Technical Data
Affordable logic analyzers
designed for your exact needs
Agilent Technologies 1670G
Series benchtop logic analyzers
enable design engineers to pur-
chase a logic analyzer that meets
their exact needs and their budg-
et.
The 1670G Series models have the
option of a built-in, 500 MHz, 2
GSa/s oscilloscope that can be
triggered by the logic analyzer.
Some of the toughest hardware
debug problems can be found
only with the digital triggering
capabilities of a logic analyzer
and can be solved only with the
analog resolution of an oscillo-
scope.
An optional pattern generator in
the 1670G Series allows designers
to substitute stimulus for missing
subsystems during product devel-
opment.
The 1670G Series helps simplify
the capture and analysis of com-
plex events with optional 256K or
2M deep memory. Deep memory
is a valuable logic analyzer fea-
ture for debugging embedded
microprocessor systems.

[1] Choose memory option 1 or 2.
[2] Choose either the scope or the pattern generator (compatible with option 1 or 2).
[3] Time or state tags halve the acquisition memory when there are no unassigned pods.
The units include a VGA resolu-
tion color flat panel display to
help you find information
quickly. The user interface helps
to locate the source of design-
problems in less time. You have
the option of using a mouse or
the front panel to easily navigate
through the user interface; a PC
style keyboard is also supported.
A compact all-in-one design helps
save space on a crowded lab
bench.

Features Benefits
State/timing analyzer Select the number of channels to match your application
(34, 68, 102, 136).
Optional deep memory 256K or 2M of memory allows capture and analysis of much
longer periods of execution. Helps solve poorly understood
or difficult to reproduce problems.
Optional oscilloscope An integrated oscilloscope can be triggered from the
analyzer (and vice versa) and provides the ability to view
analog and digital signals simultaneously.
Optional pattern An integrated pattern generator provides stimulus for
generator missing components, so that testing can begin before the
system is complete.
Trigger functions Trigger functions are depicted graphically and textually, and
may be combined to create custom trigger sequences for
capturing a complex series of events.
Global markers Track a symptom in one domain (e.g. timing) to its cause in
another domain (e.g. analog).
Documentation capability Save screen shots in standard TIFF, PCX, and EPS formats on
disk. Print screen shots and trace listings to a local
printer. Save acquired data in ASCII format for post
processing.
Processor and bus Quickly and reliably connect to a wide variety of specific
support processors and buses. Inverse assemblers allow data to be
viewed at the assembly level.
LAN Ethertwist and ThinLAN connectors support FTP, PC/NFS
protocols, and work with X11 windows packages. Users can
program the analyzer, archive data, and setup files via telnet
sockets.
Probing A wide variety of IC clips, QFP adapters, QFP probes, and
headers are available to help connect the analyzer to the
system under test.

Run—starts data acquisition in
specified trace mode.
Stop—halts acquisition and dis-
plays current data.
Acquisition mode and number of
channels (assign pods) are speci-
fied. Timing and State measure-
ments can be taken
simultaneously.
Activity indicators allow users to
monitor device-under-test activity
during analyzer setup.
User mnemonics defined (for bit
patterns or ranges), or up to 1000
symbols extracted from popular
object module formats. In symbol
mode, symbols will be dis-played
in place of data.
Logic threshold levels.
State speed can be specified
when analyzer is in state mode.
Full channel (250 MHz) or half
channel (500 MHz) can be speci-
fied in timing mode. (Screen shot
is in state mode.)
Activity indicators.
Appropriate channels assigned to
a label.
Channels can be grouped and
given a 6-character label.
Maximum of 126 labels with up to
32 channels each.

Figure 6. Trigger Screen
Figure 7. Graphical Trigger Function
Figure 8. Listing Display
Analyzer and oscilloscope or pat-
tern generator can cross-arm
each other. Arming is started by
Run, Group Run, or the PortIn
BNC (rising edge). PortOut is
asserted as a rising edge at the
PortOut BNC.
Twenty-three trigger functions
(shown graphically and textually)
can be combined to create custom
trigger sequences.
Up to twelve sequence levels with
branching and timers can be
defined.
Ten pattern recognizers (and bit
patterns in each label) can be
defined.
Edge terms make it easy to trigger
on rising or falling edges on any
number of specified signals. They
can also be used to trigger on
glitches to 3.5 ns.
Knob (or hold down right mouse
button) scrolls through listing dis-
play.
Markers measure the time
between events, search for specif-
ic events, and gather statistical
data.
Trigger is located at line 0.

Accumulate—waveform is not
erased between successive
acquisitions (persistence).
All displays are time-correlated,
so the trigger, x, and o markers
are located at equivalent posi-
tions in time on each display.
Overlay—multiple channels dis-
played on one line, with value in
selected base if space permits.
Maximum of 24 lines per screen;
may scroll through up to 96 lines.
Chart mode plots the value of a
specified label (on y-axis) versus
a state number or another label
(on x-axis). Both axes can be
scaled. Useful for A/D converters
and obtaining a visual overview
of bus activity (address flow or
data flow).
There are three SPA modes avail-
able: State Overview (shown here
provides a visual indication of
memory use), State Histogram (%
time spent in each function), and
Time Interval (execution time of a
particular function).

Compare performs a post-pro-
cessing, bit-by-bit comparison of
acquired state data and compare
image data. Copy state acquisi-
tion into compare image buffer
(may edit any bit in compare
image). The compare feature
halves the memory depth (1/4
memory with Opt. 002)
Stop Measurement halts repeti-
tive acquisitions when current
and compare acquisitions are
equal or not equal.
Compare Partial allows masking
of a compare image in order to
compare only certain bits or set
ranges of states (rows). (It com-
pares data that falls within
enabled channels and specified
range.)
Difference Listing highlights dif-
ferences between the current
state listing and compare image.
(Reference listing shows com-
pare image and bit masks.)
Several different views of the
oscilloscope display are available,
each offering different control
options. The Scope Channel dis-
play is shown here.
The pattern generator allows the
user to create data streams from
provided macros or from various
external sources and use them to
stimulate a target. Since the pat-
tern generator is internal to the
logic analyzer, the target response
can be measured with the logic
analyzer to identify incorrect out-
put and potential target system
malfunction.

Data Cable Characteristics Without a Data Pod
The Agilent pattern generator data cables without a data pod provide an ECL terminated (1 Kto
–5.2V) differential signal (from a type 10E156 or 10E154 driver). These are usable when received
by a differential receiver, preferably with a 100 termination across the lines. These signals
should not be used single ended due to the slow fall time and shifted voltage threshold (they are
not ECL compatible).

Probing the device under test is
both one of the potentially most
difficult and certainly one of the
most important tasks in debug-
ging a digital design. That is why
Agilent Technologies provides a
wider variety of probing solutions
than anyone else in the industry—
each with a different set of
advantages particular to a given
situation. We like to think of it as
helping you get your signals off to
a great start.

Agilent 1160 Family of
Miniature Passive Probes
The Agilent 1160 miniature
probes were developed as a result
of intensive market research. We
developed a probe with a browser
that won’t slip off the test point
being probed and short to some
adjacent point. The browser uses
a crown point that digs into sol-
der and won’t slip. These probes
include a variety of ground leads
and 50 mil SMD clips for
attaching to different grounding
points. Each 1670G Series logic
analyzer with Option 003 ships
with the 1160 family passive
probes.
Each 1160 family probe
includes:
•1 probe assembly
•1 general-purpose retractable
hook tip
•1 browser
•2 barrel insulators
•4 spring grounds
•1 alligator ground lead
•1 socketed ground lead
•1 dual lead adapter
•2 SMD IC clips
•1 spare browser pogo pin
•1 spare probe tip
•1 screwdriver
•1 users’ reference
•3-year warranty
The Agilent 1170A low-mass passive probe is also available. (See order-
ing information for Optional Oscilloscope Probes.)
