Support Description
The TMS 420 microprocessor support package disassembles data from systems
that are based on the Intel MIPS R3051, R3052, and R3081 microprocessors and
their “E” versions. The support runs on a compatible Tektronix logic analyzer
equipped with a 102/136-channel module or a 96-channel module.
Refer to information on basic operations to determine how many modules and
probes your logic analyzer needs to meet the minimum channel requirements for
the TMS 420 microprocessor support.
Table 1–1 shows the microprocessors and packages from which the TMS 420
support can acquire and disassemble data.

A complete list of standard and optional accessories is provided at the end of the
parts list in the Replaceable Mechanical Parts chapter.
To use this support efficiently, you need to have the items listed in the informa-
tion on basic operations as well as the R3051, R3052 and R3081 Microprocessor
