HP 16500 Modular Logic Analysis System

Product Summary

The HP 16500 modular logic analysis system helps you quickly solve today's problems while providing a growth path to tomorrow. Since 1987, HP has continuously upgraded and improved the performance of the modular logic analysis system

The modular logic analysis system is a measurement resource for the entire digital design team. Design team members can make a variety of time-correlated, simultaneous measurements, from analog to source-code-referenced traces.

At the heart of the modular logic analysis system is the HP 16500B Mainframe.

Product Features

• Capture data from multiprocessor systems using up to 1000 channels of 100-MHz state analysis, or up to 640 channels of 100-MHz state analysis with 1-Mbit/channel memory depth.
• Track down signal integrity problems with HP's built-in 2-GSa/s digitizing oscilloscope
• Simulate missing boards or create low-volume test systems with the 200M vectors/s HP 16522A pattern generator which provides complex stimulus programs with 258,048 deep memory.
• Remotely operate and view measurements and access data from the convenience of your office, or from a remote site. The X-Windows protocol is used to bring the user interface into your windowed environment, on PCs or workstations
• Access and track real-time processor traces referenced to source code instructions with the HP B3740A software analyzer while obtaining traces that are 1 M bit/channel deep
• Connect to your processor or bus with one of almost 200 probing solutions.

Intermodule Bus (IMB) Characteristics
Run Control: Oscilloscope, timing, state and pattern generation can be 
armed by Group Run  Modules can run concurrently or be armed in series.  
Each module can arm one or more modules.
Mixed Display Mode: Any timing or oscilloscope waveform displays can be mixed.
State listings can be indluded with waveforms in the State/Timing Mode display.
Acquiring Data for Mixed Displays:  To obtain a mixed display, multiple modules 
must be armed through the IMB.  To include state listings in mixed mode displays, 
state time tagging must be on.
Time Interval Accuracy Between Modules: Equals the sum of the channel-to-channel 
time interval accuracies of each module used in the measurement, for a deskewed 
measurement.
Time Coorelation Resolution: 2 ns (500 MHz)
Power Requirements
115V/230V, -22% to +10%, 48 to 66 Hz, 475 W maximum
