Getting There Just Got Easier Agilent 1680 and 1690 Series Logic Analyzers Solve critical digital design problems faster Getting there just got easier When you're debugging a design, you need to focus on solving your problems--not on mastering your debug tools. That's the thinking behind Agilent Technologies' 1680 and 1690 Series logic analyzers. These instruments work intuitively, so you can answer critical design questions without first becoming an expert in measurement instruments. You'll understand your logic analyzer right out of the box--thanks to the familiar Windows(R)-based features, the easy-to-navigate interface and the straightforward triggering. High performance doesn't mean difficult to operate. Just turn the instrument on and you're ready to solve. ............................................................................................. Performance with Headroom You get accurate and reliable measurements for today's processors and buses, with power to cover future technology trends: * 200 MHz state * Up to 800 MHz timing with 4 M of memory depth * 200 MHz transitional timing Instant Familiarity and Insights The single-screen operation, intuitive triggering and familiar Windows interface provide answers quickly and easily--so you can focus on debugging your design. Fitting Your Work Style Small-footprint standalone and PC-hosted models are available for integration into your debug environment. And offline analysis capabilities allow you to continue making measurements while you work at getting answers. These instruments work the way you work. 2 Windows Familiarity and Single-Screen Operation A familiar Windows-based user interface takes the complexity out of making logic analyzer measurements. You'll feel right at home from the moment you turn on the instrument. And if you haven't used your logic analyzer in a while, you won't have to spend hours getting reacquainted with its features. ......................................................................................... Perform all operations directly from the main screen--as you would with a PC application such as Microsoft(R) Word or Excel. Access the most frequently used features via icons. Select advanced features from the standard Windows menu bar. Expand/compress buses with Windows-like symbols. ......................................................................................... Three measurement modes State Analysis Transitional Timing State analysis uses a signal from your system under test to determine when to sample. Because state analysis samples are synchronous to the system under test, they provide a view of what your system is executing. You can capture microprocessor and bus cycles and then convert the data into processor mnemonics or bus transactions with inverse assemblers from Agilent or one of our third-party partners. If your system has bursts of activity followed by times with little activity, you can use transitional timing to capture a longer period of system activity. In transitional timing, the analyzer samples data at regular intervals but stores the data only when there is a transition on one of the signals. Timing Analysis Timing analysis uses the logic analyzer's internal clock to determine when to sample system activity. With up to 800 MHz sampling and 4 M deep memory, you'll see the order of events with high resolution over a long period of time. 3 When you know what you want to capture, trigger the way you think ............................................................. During board turn-on and system debug, Agilent's straightforward triggering capabilities help you quickly narrow in on the root cause of a problem. You can capture every aspect of your design, from a simple stuck bit to the complex sequence of events leading up to a timing problem. The intuitive triggering helps you identify the cause of elusive problems in less time--so you can get to your solution quickly. Selections for individual signals Qualification selections for bus patterns Simple Trigger Set the trigger according to how you think about your target signals. Use standard events, such as rising edge, falling edge or pattern, to define a trigger event. These events are accessible via an easy pull-down menu. You can set the trigger for an event on the basis of activity on one or more buses or signals. Simply select the patterns, edge or levels for the signals that apply. 4 Set Quick Trigger See something you didn't expect in the current trace? Simply draw a box around the questionable event and select Set Quick Trigger to see if it occurs again. You don't have to spend time defining the trigger. The instrument does the work for you. Advanced Trigger With the Advanced Trigger, you can customize a trigger for your specific situation. You can use trigger functions as individual trigger events or as building blocks for complex scenarios. Icons provide a graphical representation for each trigger function. Simply drag-anddrop an icon into the trigger sequence. To fully define the trace event, fill in the blanks with values or select standard options from the pull-down menu. Trigger History/Recall Save and name each trigger to create a series of your favorite triggers. Recall a previous trigger to test your latest defect fix. Have the confidence of knowing you can make the same measurement later without having to spend time setting up the instrument. 5 www.agilent.com/find/logic Standalone 1680 Series ....................................................................
