3 Testing 16860 Performance
24 Keysight 16860 Series Portable Logic Analyzer Service Guide
The 16860 series logic analyzer supports 2 modes: Multiple Clocks and Single Clock. Performance of
the two clocking modes of the Logic Analyzer will be measured separately. In the multiple clock
mode, performance of all 4 clocks will be measured, except for the 16861A only 2 pods. In the single
clocking mode, data from up to 8 pods (depending on model) will be verified, one pod at a time.
When the logic analyzer acquires data on both edges of the clock, the generator test frequency is set
to half of the acquisition speed.
Test Interval
Test the performance of the 16860 series logic analyzer against its specifications at two-year
intervals.
Test Record Description
A Performance Test Record for recording the results of each procedure is provided in this chapter.
You may want to make copies of the form, and fill-in a copy each time you test the logic analyzer.
Test Equipment
A list of the recommended test equipment is provided. You can use any equipment that satisfies the
specifications given. However, the instructions are written with the presumption that you are using
