Logic Analyzer

maker

A logic analyzer is an electronic instrument that captures and displays multiple signals from a digital system or circuit.

expanded

Logic analyzers are essential for testing and debugging digital circuits, allowing engineers to view timing diagrams of signals, which assist in identifying faults or verifying operation. They are crucial in developing microcontrollers, buses like I2C or SPI, where precise timing and protocol adherence are necessary.

examples

A digital signal of a microcontroller output is captured with a sample rate of 100 MHz for protocol analysis.

Used in debugging communication between a microcontroller and a peripheral device during the development of an embedded system.

Simultaneous capture of up to 32 channels, each with a resolution of 10 ns for analysis of a complex digital system.

Utilized for monitoring a multi-channel digital audio processing unit in a professional audio environment.
