Powerful triggering

Full-width pattern triggering
With mixed analog and digital
designs, sometimes it’s hard to
trace an anomaly back to its root
cause unless you can trigger on it
and correlate it with other signals.
With the 6000 Series scopes,
triggering is no longer a hassle.
They come with flexible triggering
capabilities across all channels so
you can easily isolate and analyze
complex signals and interactions
common in your mixed analog
and digital designs. Trigger on
any combination of events across
all 4 scope and 16 logic channels.

Serial bus triggering
Agilent’s 6000 Series scopes
also allow you to trigger on the
industry’s most popular serial
bus standards. Don’t spend
your time sorting through
communication frames to find
the one of interest. Let Agilent
set up a serial bus trigger to sift
through the frames for you.

C (Inter-Integrated Circuit): The

full range of I

C triggering

includes start or stop condition,
missing acknowledge, restart,
EEPROM data read, address
and/or data frame, or
10-bit write.

SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface):

SPI triggering lets you trigger
on user-definable framing,
number of bits per frame, as
well as particular data patterns.

CAN (Controller Area Network):

CAN triggering synchronizes
to the start of a CAN frame
on any CAN high or CAN low
signal. The N5424A option lets
you trigger on CAN message
IDs, data, error frame, or
overload frame as well as
decode CAN messages.

LIN (Local Interconnect Network):

Trigger on LIN sync break at
the beginning of a message
frame. The N5424A option lets
you trigger on frame ID as well
as decode LIN messages.

USB (Universal Serial Bus):

USB is quickly becoming the
connection of choice for PC
peripherals. Make your testing
easy with start-of-packet
(SOP), end-of-packet (EOP),
reset complete (RC), enter
suspend, or exit suspend modes.

Instead of spending extra time
using conventional edge triggering
to capture and trace long streams
of serial bus data, let Agilent’s

serial bus triggering help you save
time by automatically finding the
right pattern from long streams of
serial data within your embedded
systems design.

Analog HDTV/EDTV triggering
Capturing and analyzing baseband
high-definition TV waveforms with
a scope has never been easier.
The 6000 Series supports analog
HDTV/EDTV triggering for
emerging standards like 1080i,
1080p, 720p and 480p as well as
standard video triggering on any
line within a field, all lines, all
fields, odd or even fields for
NTSC, SECAM, PAL and PAL-M
video signals.

advanced pattern triggering
across all scope AND logic
channels for quick isolation
of critical events.
