Industry Exclusive Zone Touch Trigger Makes Triggering Simple
An uncompromised update rate allows you to see an anomaly, but to continue the debug process you have to isolate it. Setting up a trigger has been a challenge since oscilloscopes introduced a triggered waveform. While oscilloscopes have added more and more triggering capability over the years, setting up triggers has remained complex at best and impossible at worst.
Zone touch trigger eliminates the complexity of setting up advanced triggers. Now, if you can see the event on the display of the oscilloscope, you can trigger on it by just drawing a box on the signal you want to isolate.
Integrated Hardware-Based Serial Decoding and Triggering (Option)
Keysight InfiniiVision oscilloscopes, including the 3000T X-Series, use hardware-based serial protocol decoding. Some other vendors use software post-processing techniques to decode serial packets⁄ frames, and therefore have slow waveform and decode capture rates and could miss critical events and errors due to a long dead-time. Faster decoding with hardware-based technology enhances the probability of capturing infrequent serial communication errors.
After capturing serial bus communication, you can easily perform a search operation based on specific criteria and then quickly navigate to bytes/frames of serial data that satisfy that search criteria. The 3000T X-Series can decode two serial buses simultaneously using hardware-based decoding and display the captured data in a time interleaved “lister” display.
Serial protocol decoding can be used simultaneously with segmented memory and Zone touch triggering. The 3000T X-Series has the most decode/trigger capabilities in this class of instrument including I2C, SPI, RS232/422/485/UART, CAN, CAN FD, LIN, SENT, CXPI, FlexRay, MIL-STD 1553, ARINC 429, USB PD, and I2S.
