Unleash the Power of a Logic Analyzer Plus an Oscilloscope

Seamless oscilloscope integration with View Scope

Easily make time-correlated measurements between Keysight logic analyzers and

oscilloscopes. The time-correlated logic analyzer and oscilloscope waveforms are integrated

into a single logic analyzer waveform display for easy viewing and analysis. You can also trigger

the oscilloscope from the logic analyzer (or vice versa); automatically de-skew the waveforms;

and maintain marker tracking between the two instruments. View Scope allows you to perform

the following more effectively:

– Validate signal integrity

– Track down problems caused by signal integrity

– Validate correct operation of A/D and D/A converters

– Validate correct logical and timing relationships between the analog and digital portions of

a design

Connection

The Keysight logic analyzer and oscilloscope can be physically connected with standard

BNC and LAN connections. Two BNC cables are connected for cross triggering, and the LAN

connection is used to transfer data between the instruments. The View Scope correlation

software is standard in the logic analyzer’s application software.

The View Scope software includes:

– Ability to import some or all of the captured oscilloscope waveforms

– Auto scaling of the scope waveforms for the best fit in the logic analyzer display

Feature

Benefit

Automated setup

Quickly get to your first measurement by using the logic analyzer’s

Help wizard for easy setup, regardless of which supported Keysight

oscilloscope you connect to.

Integrated waveform display

Instantly validate the logical and timing relationships between the

analog and digital portions of your design. View oscilloscope and

logic analyzer waveforms integrated into a single logic analyzer

waveform display.

Automatic measurement de-skew

Save time and gain confidence in measurement results with

measurements that are automatically de-skewed in time.

Cross trigger the logic analyzer and

oscilloscope

Start your debug approach from either the analog or digital domain

with the flexibility to trigger the oscilloscope from the logic analyzer

(or vice versa).

Tracking markers

Precisely relate information on the oscilloscope’s display to the

corresponding point in time on the logic analyzer display with

tracking markers. The oscilloscope’s time markers automatically

track adjustments of the logic analyzer’s global markers.
