Beaverton, Ore.—Tektronix, Inc., a leading worldwide provider of test, measurement and monitoring instrumentation, announced two new logic analyzers—the TLA7012 portable mainframe and TLA7016 benchtop ...

A logic analyzer records bus communications between two chips. If you’ve ever had a problem getting two chips to talk, or wanted to reverse engineer a protocol, a logic analyzer is the tool you need ...

You’ve been there many times, trying to use a scope to simultaneously look at many signals on a digital bus. Scopes are great for viewing a signal’s details, but most can handle just two or four ...

The basic test instrument suite — a bench power supply, a good multimeter and perhaps an oscilloscope — is extremely flexible, but not exactly “plug and play” when it comes to diagnosing problems with ...

Increasing data bandwidth of these test instruments helps designers cope with gigahertz microprocessors and faster buses in complex digital systems. Tracking down bugs in complex digital systems is a ...

Logic analyzers, long a mainstay of chip design, are finding new demand for IoT devices—and frequently in different forms than in the past. Once associated with big, bulky benchtop instruments, this ...

Just as the oscilloscope is the instrument of choice for analog electronics, and the spectrum analyzer is preferred for RF measurement, the logic analyzer is the go-to instrument for digital system ...
