The white triangles near the top of the waveform area mark the time
location of each “found” occurrence of our search operation as shown in
. These frames are also marked in orange in the first/pointer
column of the lister table. Your scope should have found and marked
approximately 20 occurrences of this search operation based on a total
acquisition time of 200 ms. Note that the number of “found” events is
indicated near the bottom of the display. To automatically navigate to each
MOSI byte = 03
HEX
, press the
and
front panel navigation keys.
Let’s now use the scope’s Segmented Memory mode of acquisition to
capture 500 consecutive occurrences of SPI serial bus traffic when MOSI =
03
HEX
. But to complete the rest of this lab your scope must be licensed
with the Segmented Memory option.
