Using FPGAView installed onto a Tek logic analyzer, the software is enabled by the logic analyzer interface feature introduced in Altera's Quartus II design software (v5.1). The logic analyzer ...

When you think of a logic analyzer today, you might think of a little USB probe that can measure a few signals and decoding for various serial buses. But actual logic analyzers were high-speed ...

With mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) being everyone’s “Engineering” Swiss Army knife, why would anyone need an additional logic analyzer? MSOs with sampling rates in the GHz range and 8 or more ...

Saleae logic analyzers seem to have it all: good sampling rates, convenient protocol decoding, and plenty of channels – but not a good way to set rising or falling-edge triggering. [James] found this ...

When the microprocessor and inexpensive ROM memory arrived in the early 1970s, building small, stored-program computing systems became practical. System designers learned that with the rapidly growing ...

For designers of telecommunications and wireless products, the challenge is to choose an appropriate mix of instruments for analysis and debug, and the move is to logic and protocol analyzers.

As I mentioned in my recent columns on the topic of adding pull-up or pull-down resistors to the inputs of unused or partially used logic gates and functions (see Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3), I was ...
