Said to be the industry’s fastest logic analyzer, the U4154A AXIe-based logic analyzer module combines state capture speeds of 4 Gbits/s on 68 channels and 2.5 Gbits/s on 136 channels with the ability to reliably capture and display data on the industry’s smallest eye openings — as small as 100 ps by 100 mV. The instrument’s accurate probes and analysis software let engineers working with high-speed ASICs, ADCs, FPGAs, and DDR memory systems make essential measurements.
The instrument’s timing zoom capability permits simultaneous state and timing measurements with 80-ps resolution and 256-ksample memory depth over a 20-µs time span. The trigger sequencer’s 2.5-Gbit/s speed allows reliable, flexible triggering.
The logic analyzer’s exclusive eye-scan capability gives a quick overview of signal integrity on all signals of a DDR system without an oscilloscope, in a fraction of the time it takes using alternative methods. Also, the instrument runs the B4622A DDR2/3 protocol-compliance and analysis tool to automate measurements on deep DDR bus traces and provide an overview of system performance.
A broad range of compatible probing solutions, including DDR BGA probes and interposers as well as soft-touch probes for midbus probing, are available. The logic analyzer module is compatible with the M9502A two-slot AXIe chassis, and multiple modules can be combined on a single time base and trigger sequencer. Further, multiple modular systems can be combined for time-correlated measurements on multiple buses in a system. (From $115,500 for 136 channels, with chassis and probe cables; probes are priced separately — available in April.)
