LeCroy Introduces M-Type 1 GHz Oscilloscopes for Design Validation.CHESTNUT RIDGE Chestnut Ridge may refer to:
Each oscilloscope oscilloscope (əsĭl`əskōp'), electronic device used to produce visual displays corresponding to electrical signals. Displays of such nonelectrical phenomena as the variations of a sound's intensity can be made if the phenomena are comes standard with a full set of analysis tools, including WaveScan[TM], an advanced search and analysis feature, WaveStream[TM], a fast viewing mode, and LabNotebook[TM], a unique tool for documentation and report generation. Whether looking at the frequency spectrum, analyzing jitter A flicker or fluctuation in a transmission signal or display image. The term is used in several ways, but it always refers to some offset of time and space from the norm. For example, in a network transmission, jitter would be a bit arriving either ahead or behind a standard clock cycle , or performing mixed signal measurements, the M-Type instruments combine high performance and ease of use with the best tools for understanding and validating a design. Two models are available in two models. The LeCroy WaveRunner MXi is the most capable oscilloscope available in its class. With a maximum sample rate of 10 Gigasamples/second and a standard 12.5 Mpts/Ch of memory (interleaving interleaving - sector interleave to 25 Mpts/Ch), the WaveRunner MXi, can accommodate a variety of analysis tools and application programs, such as Tracks, Histograms, long memory FFTs, user-defined functions, mixed signal options, power device analysis, jitter and timing analysis, and a host of other applications. The X-Stream architecture ensures that memory processing is performed effortlessly, without interfering with the oscilloscope's operation. The WaveSurfer MXs offers 5 Gigasamples per second on each channel with 10 Mpts/Ch memory. It emphasizes strong fundamentals for lab and bench oscilloscope use. Advanced triggering helps an engineer find rare events and glitches, while the built-in HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates trigger speeds the design of new products. The oscilloscope comes complete with an advanced math package, including one million point FFTs. "The M-Type oscilloscopes bring the advanced problem-solving abilities of the latest LeCroy oscilloscopes to engineers performing tasks ranging from everyday needs to advanced debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits. and analysis," says Dan Monopoli, product marketing manager. "The collection of tools, features and functions packed into this small 6" deep instrument with large 10.4" touch screen make these truly unique oscilloscopes." In addition, all M-Type oscilloscopes are compatible with optional low-speed serial triggering and decode packages to help engineers quickly analyze I2C I2C Inter-Integrated Circuit I2C Intelligent Interface Controller I2C Intelligent Controller , SPI (1) (Stateful Packet Inspection) See stateful inspection. (2) (Service Provider Interface) The programming interface for developing Windows drivers under WOSA. , UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) The electronic circuit that makes up the serial port. Also known as "universal serial asynchronous receiver transmitter" (USART), it converts parallel bytes from the CPU into serial bits for transmission, and vice , RS-232, CAN, LIN and FlexRay protocols through the use of easy to read transparent overlays, search/zoom capabilities, and tabular displays. M-Type oscilloscopes are also hot-plug ready for LeCroy's 36-channel Mixed Signal Oscilloscope A mixed signal oscilloscope (or MSO) has two kinds of inputs, a small number (typically two or four) of analogue channels, and a larger number (typically sixteen) of digital channels. (MSO (1) (Multiple System Operator) Typically refers to a cable TV organization that owns more than one cable system, but it may refer to an operator of only one system. ). Find it, Understand it -- WaveScan Locates Problems Faster The best trigger won't find all unusual events - a more powerful capability is needed. LeCroy's WaveScan provides the ability to locate unusual events in a single capture, or scan for an event in many acquisitions over a long period of time. Users can select from nearly 20 search modes (pulse width pulse width Pulse duration Cardiac pacing The duration of a pacing pulse in msecs , frequency, rise time, runt The frame that remains after a collision on a CSMA/CD medium such as Ethernet. Runts are undersize packets, smaller than what the network protocol calls for, such as 64 bytes in Ethernet. Electrical interference or faulty wiring can also produce a runt. , duty cycle, etc.), apply a search condition (>, <, in a range, or outside of a range, set a value with limits, etc.), and begin scanning and inspecting unusual events. In a single acquisition, WaveScan will identify the failure with a red box, and list the values in a table. A user can then zoom to view or apply additional analysis tools for complete debugging. LabNotebook -- Instant Report Generation After tests are performed, LeCroy's M-Type oscilloscopes simply and easily document results. Saving all displayed waveforms, relevant settings, and screen images is done with a single button, eliminating the need to navigate multiple menus to save all these files independently. LabNotebook also permits customizing reports to fit into any design verification dataset. Once a measurement is made, it's easy to document and share the information. Pricing The US list price for the new WaveSurfer MXs oscilloscope is $11,990. The new WaveRunner MXi is $14,390. Delivery is 4-6 weeks ARO.
