Logic Analyzer

Share  | 

• Generally, logic analyzers make use of an oscilloscope to present complex digital data to a user, thereby allowing the user to check particular operations of the electronic system.
• Proper selection of logic analyzers is important and it requires an understanding of application requirements and an analysis of performance specifications.
• There are some analyzers that work in association with personal computer (PC) to troubleshoot and verify performance parameters of digital circuits.
• PC logic analyzers use special connectors or probes to test different circuits.
• These analyzers can work in mixed signal systems that use both analog and digital signals.
• The PC based analyzer is controlled with easy to use Windows software.

• These are commonly used for capturing data in systems that have too many channels to be examined with an oscilloscope.
• They can detect hardware defects that are not found in simulation.
• These analyzers are used in development of computer systems and networks to find the source of hardware or software design flaws.
• These are used to test circuits in embedded systems and microcontrollers, robotics, and automotive computers.
