Logic 8 (Black) - Saleae 8-Channel Logic Analyzer

Product Information

Logic analyzers often have a set of buttons and knobs that allow you to configure the capture parameters or navigate through the display as shown in the figure below.

Voltages detected by the probe below the threshold are assigned a logic "0," and voltages above the threshold are assigned a logic "1.During development, this technique can save time from having to wire up dozens of probes to the circuit. Some high-density or high-speed systems may require a specialized connector to reduce losses and radiated noise. Complex Trigger: Some advanced logic analyzers will let you set a series of if-then-else statements to create a trigger. To view the captured data in greater detail, most logic analyzers will let you scroll or zoom using buttons or knobs. A pattern trigger can be set by selecting multiple channels and setting channel state options, such as logic high or logic low.

If you are working with small SMD parts with no exposed leads, you can solder thin wire to an exposed printed circuit board (PCB) trace to give you access to the signal. Pattern triggers can be useful if you are looking for start-of-frame transmissions on parallel buses.In timing mode, also known as "asynchronous mode," data is captured at precise intervals according to the logic analyzer's internal clock. Note that for some logic analyzers, you will only need to attach one ground probe for the whole wire harness. Trigger: The condition(s) necessary that cause the logic analyzer to begin sampling and recording data. Some logic analyzers come with the ability to decode various communication protocols, such as UART, SPI, I2C, etc. Details of each area can be found in the product data sheets, in the technical specifications on the Saleae home page, or in the user's guide.
