Agilent / HP / Keysight 16550A
16550A 102 Channel State Timing Module w/4K of acquisition memory
Description
The Agilent/HP 16550A of state and timing analyzers offer a range of memory depths and state analysis speeds to fit your application.
The Agilent 16550A offers industry standard state and timing analysis features at an affordable price.
All Agilent 16650A analyzer uses the same probing scheme, which makes it possible for you to easily interchange probing interconnections whenever your probing needs change.
All 16550A analyzers connect to a broad and growing selection of preprocessor solutions because the probes are compatible with previous Agilent state and timing analyzer modules.
With the Agilent / HP 16550A analyzer, there is no need to connect special probes to view timing activity. All channels on HP state and timing analysis modules perform either state or timing functions. The HP 16550A analyzer performs simultaneous fully time-correlated state analysis on some channels and timing analysis on the rest.
It is possible to analyze distant timing events with transitional timing using the 16550A. Capture events that are seconds apart while maintaining 4-ns resolution with the 16550A.
The Agilent / HP 16550A can perform transitional timing samples at full speed but only stores data when a transition occurs. This technique effectively extends total time captured by the acquisition memory while maintaining high time resolution.
In state mode, set up compare mode to “run until compare not equal” to capture intermittent errors. Use compare for quick go/no-go testing of your product in manufacturing. State compare shows you the effects of system changes by comparing each sample in the current measurement to each sample in the previous measurement.
State and timing analyzers lets the user display state measurements in listings, X-Y chart, or state waveforms. In addition to the waveform display, the 16555A allows to display timing information as a listing.
