SPI Serial Bus
Setting up the oscilloscope to capture SPI bus signals
To analyse the SPI bus (Serial Peripheral Interface), we need to connect the inputs of the
oscilloscope to the following SPI signals :
Clock - MOSI data - MISO data - Framing
And to set for each signal the logic threshold that defines the « Low » and « High » levels.
Setting up the oscilloscope to capture and analyse the SPI bus signals:
1° Press the front panel «
Decode
» button to open the DECODE menu
2° Press the «
Serial
» button and select
“Serial 1” or “Serial 2”
3° Press the «
Decode
» button and use the «
Universal
» knob to select «
SPI
»
Note : The default value are
“I2C” for Serial 1 and “SPI” for Serial 2.
4° Press the «
Signal
» button to open the SPI « SIGNAL » submenu
5° Press the «
CLK
» button to open the SPI
“CLK” submenu
a) Press the «
CLK
» button and use the « Universal » knob to assign a channel to the
SPI « CLK » signal
b) Press the «
Threshold
» button and use the « Universal » knob to set the threshold
value.
c) Press the «
Edge »
button to set the rising or the falling edge, the selected edge is
used by the oscilloscope to «
latch
» the serial data.
6° Press the «
UP
» button to return to SPI
“SIGNAL” submenu
7° Press the «
MISO
» button to open the
“MISO” submenu
a) Press the «
MISO
» button and use the « Universal » knob to assign a channel to the
MISO signal
b) Press the «
Threshold
» button and use the Universal knob to set the threshold
