Logic Analyzer Description

The Agilent Technologies 16517A/18A Synchronous Timing Analyzer
module is part of a family of general-purpose logic analyzers.  The
16517A/18A is a multi-card module that is used with the Agilent
Technologies 16500 mainframes and the Agilent Technologies 16501A
Expansion Frame.

The Agilent Technologies 16500 mainframe is designed for use by
digital and microprocessor hardware and software designers.  The
16500 mainframe has GPIB, RS-232-C, and Ethernet LAN interfaces
for hard copy printouts, postprocessing of measurement data, and
control by a host computer.

The 16517A/18A analyzer can be configured in the following ways:

•

The 16517A master can run as a single-card module or have up to
four 16518A expansion cards added for a multi-card module.

•

Channel width varies from 16 channels on the 16517A master,  up
to 80 channels when four 16518A expansion cards are added.

•

Channel memory depth is 64 Kbytes in both full-channel state and
timing modes or 128 Kbytes in half-channel timing mode.

Timing Modes

The 16517A/18A has two timing modes.  In full-channel timing mode,
data is sampled at up to 2 GHz.  In half-channel timing mode, data is
sampled at 4 GHz.

Synchronous State Mode

In the full-channel state mode, a synchronous external clock running
at speeds up to 1 GHz can be used as the sample clock.  In addition,
the sample point can be offset to ensure a sample where you know
data is valid.
