TLA Product Specications & Performance Verication

Specications and Characteristics


This document lists the specications for the Tektronix Logic Analyzer mainframes and other logic analyzer products. Additional specication documents are available on the TLA Documentation CD or on the Tektronix Web site. For the most current documentation, refer to the Tektronix Web site (http://www.Tektronix.com).

Characteristic Tables
All specications are guaranteed unless noted Typical. Typical characteristics describe typical or average performance and provide useful reference information. Specications that are marked with the symbol are checked directly (or indirectly) using performance verication procedures. For mainframes and modules, the performance limits in this specication are valid with these conditions: The logic analyzer must be in an environment with temperature, altitude, humidity, and vibration within the operating limits described in these specications. The logic analyzer must have had a warm-up period of at least 30 minutes. For modules, the performance limits in this specication are valid with these conditions: The modules must be installed in a Logic Analyzer Mainframe. The module must have been calibrated/adjusted at an ambient temperature between +20 C and +30 C. The DSO module must have had its signal-path-compensation routine (self calibration or self cal) last executed after at least a 30 minute warm-up period. After the warm-up period, the DSO module must have had its signal-path-compensation routine last executed at an ambient temperature within 5 C of the current ambient temperature. For optimum performance using an external oscilloscope, please consult the documentation for any external oscilloscopes used with your Tektronix Logic Analyzer to determine the warm-up period and signal-path compensation requirements.

All system trigger and signal input latencies were measured from a falling edge transition (active true low) with signals in the wired-OR conguration. In the Waveform window, triggers are always marked immediately except when delayed to the rst sample. In the Listing window, triggers are always marked on the next sample period following their occurrence. Clk represents the time to the next master clock at the destination logic analyzer module. With asynchronous clocking this represents the delta time to the next sample clock. With synchronous sampling this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine and the supplied SUT clocks and qualication data. Signals 1 and 2 (ECLTRG0, 1) are limited to a broadcast mode where only one source can drive the signal node at any one time. The signal source can be used to drive any combination of destinations.

SMPL represents the time from the event to the next valid data sample at the probe tip of the LA module. With asynchronous sampling, this represents the delta time to the next sample clock. With MagniVu asynchronous sampling, this represents 500 ps or less. With synchronous sampling, this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine, the system-under-test supplied clocks, and the qualication data. Skid is commonly referred to as the system level system trigger and signaling output latency. This is the absolute time from when the event rst appears at the input probe tips of a module to when the corresponding event that it generates appears at the system trigger or external signal outputs. All signal output latencies are validated to the rising edge of an active (true) high output. Signals 1 and 2 (ECLTRG0, 1) are limited to a broadcast mode where only one source can drive the signal node at any one time. The signal source can be used to drive any combination of destinations.

SMPL represents the time from the event at the probe tip inputs to the next valid data sample of the LA module. With Normal asynchronous sampling, this represents the delta time to the next sample clock. With MagniVu asynchronous sampling, this represents 500 ps or less. With synchronous sampling, this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine, the system-under-test supplied clocks, and the qualication data. All system trigger and external signal input latencies are measured from a falling-edge transition (active true low) with signals measured in the wired-OR conguration. All signal output latencies are validated to the rising edge of an active (true) high output. In the Waveform window, triggers are always marked immediately except when delayed to the rst sample. In the Listing window, triggers are always marked on the next sample period following their occurrence. "Clk" represents the time to the next master clock at the destination logic analyzer. With asynchronous sampling, this represents the delta time to the next sample clock beyond the minimum asynchronous rate of 4 ns. With the synchronous sampling, this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine and the supplied system under test clocks and qualication data. Signals 1 and 2 are limited to a "broadcast" mode of operation, where only one source is allowed to drive the signal node at any one time. That single source may be utilized to drive any combination of destinations.

Description 376 ns + SMPL OR function AND function 364 ns + SMPL 364 ns + SMPL 366 ns + SMPL 379 ns + SMPL

All system trigger and external signal input latencies are measured from a falling-edge transition (active true low) with signals measured in the wired-OR conguration. In the Waveform window, triggers are always marked immediately except when delayed to the rst sample. In the Listing window, triggers are always marked on the next sample period following their occurrence. "Clk" represents the time to the next master clock at the destination logic analyzer. In the asynchronous (or internal) clock mode, this represents the delta time to the next sample clock beyond the minimum asynchronous rate of 4 ns. In the synchronous (or external) clock mode, this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine and the supplied system under test clocks and qualication data. Signals 1 and 2 (ECLTRG0, 1) are limited to a "broadcast" mode of operation, where only one source is allowed to drive the signal node at any one time. That single source may be utilized to drive any combination of destinations. SMPL represents the time from the event at the probe tip inputs to the next valid data sample. With asynchronous sampling, this represents the delta time to the next sample clock. With MagniVu asynchronous sampling, this represents 500 ps or less. With synchronous sampling, this represents the time to the next master clock generated by the setup of the clocking state machine, the system-under-test supplied clocks, and the qualication data.

It is possible to use storage control and only store data when it has changed (transitional storage). Applies to asynchronous sampling only. Setup and hold window specication applies to synchronous sampling only. Any or all of the clock channels may be enabled. For an enabled clock channel, either the rising, falling, or both edges can be selected as the active clock edges. The clock channels are stored. Full and half speed modes are controlled by PowerFlex options and upgrade kits. All qualier channels are stored. For custom clocking there are an additional 4 qualier channels on C2 3:0 regardless of channel width.

Each channel group can be enabled to detect a glitch. 2.0 ns (single channel with P6417, P6418, or a P6434 probe) Each channel can be enabled to detect a setup and hold violation. The range is from 8 ns before the clock edge to 8 ns after the clock edge. The range can be selected in 0.5 ns increments. The setup and hold violation of each window can be individually programmed. Each channel group can be enabled or disabled to detect a transition between the current valid data sample and the previous valid data sample. This mode can be used to create transitional storage selections where all channels are enabled. 2 counter/timers, 51 bits wide, can be clocked up to 250 MHz. Maximum count is 251.

Characteristic Signal out Trigger out Storage Control Global storage Storage is allowed only when a specic condition is met. This condition can use any of the trigger machine resources except for the counter/timers. Storage commands dened in the current trigger state will override the global storage control. Global storage can be used to start the acquisition with storage initially turned on (default) or turned off. Storage can be turned on or off; only the current sample can be stored. The event storage control overrides any global storage commands. When enabled, 31 samples are stored before and after the valid sample. Not allowed when glitch storage or setup and hold violation is enabled. The acquisition memory can be enabled to store glitch violation information with each data sample when asynchronous sampling is used. The probe data storage size is reduced by one half (the other half holds the violation information). The fastest asynchronous sampling rate is reduced to 10 ns. The acquisition memory can be enabled to store setup and hold violation information with each data sample when synchronous sampling is used. The probe data storage size is reduced by one half (the other half holds the violation information). The maximum clock rate is reduced by half.

Demultiplex clocking Source synchronous clock reset The Clock Group Valid FIFO can be reset in one of the two ways: 1. By the overow of a presettable (0-255) 8-bit counter that counts one of the following clocks: 2ns Clock or the master heartbeat clock (synchronous or asynchronous). An active edge places the reset count to its preset value. An active clock edge will clear the Clock Group Valid reset before the clock gets to the FIFO so that no data is lost. 2. By enabling an external reset. In this mode, one of the clock channels must be traded on the master module to act as a level-sensitive reset input. Any one of the clocks can be selected. A polarity selection is available. This mode affects all Clock Group Complete circuits. Neither one of the above modes can be intermixed; one or the other must be selected. Channel groups can be programmed with a pipeline delay of 0 through 7 active clock changes.

Specication only applies with asynchronous clocking. With synchronous sampling, the setup and hold window size applies. Any clock channel can be enabled. For enabled clock channels, either the rising, falling, or both edges can be selected as active clock edges; clock channels are stored. This is a special mode and has some limitations such as the clocking state machine and trigger state machine only running at 500 MHz.

Setup and hold violation detector (normal synchronous clock mode)

Any channel can be enabled to detect a setup or hold violation. The range is from 8.0 ns before the clock edge to 8.0 ns after the clock edge in 0.125 ns steps. The channel setup and hold violation size can be individually programmed. The range can be shifted towards the positive region by 0 ns, 4 ns, or 8 ns. With a 0 ns shift, the range is +8 ns to -8 ns; with a 4 ns shift, the range is +12 ns to -4 ns; with an 8 ns shift, the range is +16 ns to 0 ns. The sample point selection region is the same as the setup and hold window. Any setup value is subject to variation of up to the channel skew specication. Any hold value is subject to variation of up to the channel skew specication. 16 transition detectors. Any channel group can be enabled or disabled to detect a rising transition, a falling transition, or both rising and falling transitions between the current valid data sample and the previous valid data sample. 2 counter/timers, 51 bits wide, can be clocked up to 500 MHz Maximum count is 2^50-1 (excluding sign bit) Maximum time is 4.5 X 106 seconds or 52 days Counters can be used as Settable, resettable, and testable ags. Counters can be reset, do nothing, increased, or decreased. Timers can be reset, started, stopped, or not changed. Counters and timers have zero reset latency and one clock terminal count latency.

Characteristic Signal In 2 Trigger In Active trigger resources Description A backplane input signal. A backplane input signal that causes the main acquisition and the MagniVu acquisition to trigger if they are not already triggered. 16 maximum (excluding counter/timers) Word recognizers are traded off one-for-one as Signal In 1, Signal In 2, glitch detection, setup and hold detection, or transition detection resources are added. 16 Same rate as valid data samples received. 500 MHz maximum. Triggers the main acquisition memory Programmable to any data sample (2 ns boundaries) Main acquisition machine controls the triggering of the MagniVu memory Programmable within 2 ns boundaries and separate from the main acquisition memory trigger position Counter/timers used as counters can be increased or decreased. Either of the two counter/timers used as timers can be started or stopped. Either of the two counter/timers can be reset. When a counter/timer used as a timer is reset, the timer continues in the started or stopped state that it was prior to the reset. Loads the current acquired data sample into the reference value of the word recognizer via a trigger machine action. All data channels are loaded into their respective word recognizer reference register on a one-to-one manner. 378 ns A signal sent to the backplane to be used by other modules A signal sent to the backplane to trigger other modules Storage is allowed only if a specic condition is met. The condition can use any of the trigger resources except for counter/timers. Storage commands dened in the current trigger state will override the global storage control. Storage can be used to start the acquisition with storage initially turned on (default setting) or off. Storage can be turned on or off; only the current sample can be stored. Event storage control overrides any global storage commands. When enabled, 31 samples are stored before and after the valid sample. This allows the storage of a group of samples around a valid data sample when storage control is being used. This only has meaning when storage control is used. Block storage is disallowed when glitch storage or setup and hold violation storage is enabled.

Characteristic Glitch violation storage Description Glitch violation information can be stored to acquisition memory with each data sample when asynchronous sampling is used. The acquisition data storage size is reduced by half when this mode is enabled (the other half holds violation information). The fastest asynchronous clock rate is reduced to 4 ns. Setup and hold violation information can be stored to acquisition memory with each data sample when synchronous sampling is used. The acquisition data storage size is reduced by half when this mode is enabled (the other half holds violation information). The maximum synchronous clock rate in this mode is 235 MHz.

Characteristic MagniVu sampling period Description Data is asynchronously sampled and stored every 125 ps in a separate MagniVu (high-resolution) memory. The storage speed can be changed by software to 250 ps, 500 ps, or 1000 ps with no loss in memory depth so that the high resolution memory covers more time at a lower resolution. Approximately 16 K per channel. The MagniVu memory is separate from the main acquisition memory.

Table 67: Merged modules


Characteristic Number of merged modules Description 2, 3, 4, or 5 adjacent modules can be merged. Only 102-channel modules or 136-channel modules can be merged. Merged modules can have unequal channel widths and channel depths. The sum of all channels available on each of the merged modules including clocks and qualiers. No channels are lost when modules are merged. Channel depth is equal to that of the shallowest module. The qualier channels on the slave modules can only be used as data channels. They cannot inuence the actual clocking function of the logic analyzer (for example, log strobe generation). The clock channels on the slave TLA7Axx modules can capture data on those modules for source-synchronous applications. Each slave module contributes four additional clock channels to the merged set. All clock and qualier channels are stored to acquisition memory. The same as a single module except for word recognizer width, setup and hold violation detector width, glitch detector width, and transition detector width has increased to equal that of the merged channel width. Range recognizers will increase to the merged channel width up to three modules; range recognition is not supported on the two outside slave modules. Most signicant Master, Slave 1, Slave 2

Each channel group can be enabled or disabled to detect a transition between the current valid data sample and the previous valid data sample.

Characteristic Counter/Timers Description 2 counter/timers, 51 bits wide, can be clocked up to 250 MHz. Maximum count is 251. Maximum time is 9.007 X 106 seconds or 104 days. Counters and timers can be set, reset, or tested and have zero reset latency. A backplane input signal A backplane input signal A backplane input signal that causes the main acquisition and the MagniVu acquisition to trigger if they are not already triggered 16 maximum (excluding counter/timers) Word recognizers are traded off one-by-one as Signal In 1, Signal In 2, glitch detection, setup and hold detection, or transition detection resources are added. 16 Same rate as valid data samples received, 250 MHz maximum Triggers the main acquisition memory Trigger position is programmable to any data sample (4 ns boundaries) Either of the two counter/timers used as counters can be increased. Either of the two counter/timers used as timers can be started or stopped. Either of the two counter/timers can be reset. When a counter/timer is used as a timer and is reset, the timer continues in the started or stopped state that it was in prior to the reset. A signal sent to the backplane to be used by other modules A trigger out signal sent to the backplane to trigger other modules Storage is allowed only when a specic condition is met. This condition can use any of the trigger machine resources except for the counter/timers. Storage commands dened in the current trigger state will override the global storage control. Global storage can be used to start the acquisition with storage initially turned on (default) or turned off. Storage can be turned on or off; only the current sample can be stored. The event storage control overrides any global storage commands. When enabled, 31 samples are stored before and after the valid sample. Block storage is disallowed when glitch storage or setup and hold violation is enabled. The acquisition memory can be enabled to store glitch violation information with each data sample when asynchronous sampling is used. The probe data storage size is reduced by one half (the other half holds the violation information). The fastest asynchronous sampling rate is reduced to 10 ns.

Each use of a glitch detector, setup and hold violation detector, or transition detector requires a trade-off of one word recognizer resource. Any glitch is subject to pulse width variation of up to the channel-to-channel skew specication + 0.5 ns. For TLA7N1, TLA7N2, TLA7N3, TLA7N4, TLA7P2, TLA7P4, TLA7Q2, and TLA7Q4 Logic Analyzer modules, any setup value is subject to variation of up to 1.8 ns; any hold value is subject to variation of up to 1.2 ns. For TLA7L1, TLA7L2, TLA7L3, TLA7L4, TLA7M1, TLA7M2, TLA7M3, and TLA7M4 Logic Analyzer modules, any setup value is subject to variation of up to 1.6 ns; any hold value is subject to variation of up to 1.4 ns.

Net offset is the nominal voltage level at the digitizing oscilloscope input that corresponds to the center of the A/D Converter dynamic range. Offset accuracy is the accuracy of this voltage level. The limits given are for the ambient temperature range of 0 C to +30 C. Reduce the upper bandwidth frequencies by 5 MHz for each C above +30 C. The bandwidth must be set to FULL. Rise time (rounded to the nearest 50 ps) is calculated from the bandwidth when Full Bandwidth is selected. It is dened by the following formula: Rise Time (ns) = 450 BW (MHz) GND input coupling disconnects the input connector from the attenuator and connects a ground reference to the input of the attenuator. The AC Coupled Lower Frequency Limits are reduced by a factor of 10 when 10X passive probes are used. The sensitivity ranges from 10 mV to 100 V full scale in a 1-2-5 sequence of coarse settings. Between coarse settings, you can adjust the sensitivity with a resolution equal to 1% of the more sensitive coarse setting. For example, between the 500 mV and 1 V ranges, the sensitivity can be set with 5 mV resolution. The Full Bandwidth settling errors are typically less than the percentages from the table. The maximum absolute difference between the value at the end of a specied time interval after the mid-level crossing of the step, and the value one second after the mid-level crossing of the step, expressed as a percentage of the step amplitude.

If RAM is less than 256 MB, the record length of the external oscilloscope may be limited to 1 M. A GPIB extender is needed to connect the iView cable to the oscilloscope. One end of a standard GPIB cable can be used. If you encounter possible alignment problems with the logic analyzer and oscilloscope waveform edges, refer to Aligning Logic Analyzer and Oscilloscope Waveform Edges. (See page 77, Aligning Logic Analyzer and Oscilloscope Waveform Edges.) A GPIB to USB adapter (TEK-USB-488) is required to connect the iView cable to the oscilloscope. There is a known timing offset between triggers when a TLA logic analyzer is triggered by the oscilloscope. Tektronix is correcting this problem. When used with a TLA7016 mainframe and an external PC (such as TLA7PC1), the instruments must be physically located close together so that the iView cable can span both instruments. Removing the sleeving from the iView cable assembly increases the spacing distance available between the external PC and the TLA7016 mainframe. Includes sampling uncertainty, typical jitter, slot-to-slot skew, and probe-to-probe variations to provide a typical number for the measurement.

Aligning Logic Analyzer and Oscilloscope Waveform Edges

The rst time that you take an acquisition after changing the horizontal scale setting on TDS1000B, TDS2000B, TDS1000 or TDS2000 series oscilloscopes, the logic analyzer and oscilloscope waveform edges may not be aligned within the listed specication. You can realign the waveform positions in the waveform window that contains the oscilloscope data (Menu bar > Data > Time Alignment). Make sure that the external oscilloscope is the data source and then adjust the time offset to align the waveforms. Use the following approximate offsets for various horizontal scale settings. (See Table 90.) Table 90: TDS1000B, TDS2000B, TDS1000, and TDS2000 Series oscilloscope waveform edge alignment

Performance Verication Procedures

Performance Verication Procedures


This chapter contains procedures for functional verication, certication, and performance verication procedures for the TLA7000 series logic analyzer mainframes. Refer to the individual service manuals for performance verication procedures for other Tektronix Logic Analyzer products. Generally, you should perform these procedures once per year or following repairs that affect certication.

Summary Verication
Functional verication procedures verify the basic functionality of the instrument inputs, outputs, and basic instrument actions. These procedures include power-on diagnostics, extended diagnostics, and manual check procedures. These procedures can be used for incoming inspection purposes. Certication procedures certify the accuracy of an instrument and provide a traceability path to national standards. Certication data is recorded on calibration data reports provided with this manual. The calibration data reports are intended to be copied and used for calibration/certication procedures. After completing the performance verication procedures or the certication procedures, you can ll out a calibration data report to keep on le with your instrument. Performance verication procedures conrm that a product meets or exceeds the performance requirements for the published specications documented in the Specications chapter of this manual.

Test Equipment
These procedures use external, traceable signal sources to directly test characteristics that are designated as checked in the Specications chapter of this manual. Always warm up the equipment for 30 minutes before beginning the procedures. Table 91: Test equipment

Power-on and Fan Operation

Complete the following steps to check the power-on and fan operation of the logic analyzer: You will need a mainframe with an LA module installed in each mainframe. 1. Power on the instrument and observe that the On/Standby switch illuminates. 2. Check that the fans spin without undue noise. 3. If everything is properly connected and operational, you should see the modules in the System window of the logic analyzer application. 4. If there are no failures indicated in the System window, the power-on diagnostics pass when you power on the mainframe(s).

Extended Diagnostics

Do the following steps to run the extended diagnostics: NOTE. Running the extended diagnostics will invalidate any acquired data. If you want to save any of the acquired data, do so before running the extended diagnostics.

TLA Product Specications & Performance Verication

79

Performance Verication Procedures

You will need a mainframe with an LA module installed in each mainframe.

Prerequisites

Warm-up time: 30 minutes

Perform the following tests to complete the functional verication procedure: NOTE. Installing a module in the mainframe provides a means of verifying connectivity and communication between the module and the mainframe. Try using a different module and repeat the tests to isolate the problem to the mainframe or to the module. 1. If you have not already done so, power on the instrument and start the logic analyzer application if it did not start by itself. 2. Go to the System menu and select Calibration and Diagnostics. 3. Verify that all power-on diagnostics pass. 4. Click the Extended Diagnostics tab. 5. Select All Modules, All Tests, and then click the Run button on the property sheet. All tests that displayed an "Unknown" status will change to a Pass or Fail status depending on the outcome of the tests. 6. Scroll through the tests and verify that all tests pass.
