Getting Acquainted with Your Instrument
Specify the Sampling Method
When you select asynchronous sampling, the logic analyzer selects when data is sampled (sample point). Asynchronous
sampling is also known as timing acquisition.
When you use synchronous sampling, the system-under-test speci
fi
es the sample point by an external clock. Synchronous
sampling is also known as state acquisition.
The following example uses asynchronous sampling.
1.
Select
Asynchronous
.
2.
Set sample period (or use default
setting).
3.
Select the threshold voltage.
The threshold voltage is applied to all probe
channels. You can set threshold voltages for
individual channels in the bottom part of the
Setup window.
NOTE.
If your logic analyzer has a support package installed, a custom clocking tab is available. The label on the tab is
the same as the support package.
