State Analysis Operation – Read and Write at 667MT/s or slower

State mode capture is performed by using both edges of CK0. This double probing of each signal is handled internally by the Agilent Logic Analyzer using the Dual Sample mode feature. State analysis within these parameters only requires dual sampling of the Data signals, which can be done with 4 cards in one frame. The four cards used for state analysis must be configured as one logic analyzer machine. You may also place the cards in slots other than described here, but must then adjust the pod connection tables and configuration file loading instructions accordingly. The configuration file is set up with the Master in slot D, expanders in C, E, and F.

The analyzer sample position of the channel capturing data is set via a calibration procedure (described in this document) to the optimum value. The DDR Command/Address bus is also sampled (along with the Data bus) on both edges of CK0. This does not reduce triggering capability but does require additional care when setting up triggers because the command/address bus is not valid on the falling edge of CK0.

The Auto Sample Position Set-up function can be a more accurate means to set the sampling position for each bit used in the State analysis, but this requires using known, continuous data patterns of exclusive Reads and then exclusive Writes.

The logic analyzer’s TimingZoom traces can be used to set the sampling positions for the labels as described in the following sections. Note: The label names are different depending on whether you are doing Read and Write <= 667MT/s (FS1117) or doing Read or Write at 800 MT/s (FS1136).

State Analysis Operation – Read or Write at 800MT/s

This mode of State Analysis permits just the use of 4 cards and one logic analyzer frame. There are 2 different configuration files provided, on for Read only and one for Write only State analysis. These configuration files use the FS1136 Protocol Decoder and difference between the 2 is there pre-defined sampling positions are set for one type of data burst or the other. The State clock operates on only the rising edge of the clock and each data signal is sampled twice.

Please note that the Protocol decoder listing will show invalid data for the type of burst that the sampling positions are not defined for.

Setting the sampling positions is done in the same manner as for the 7 card, 800MT/s configuration, the only difference being fewer labels to set sampling positions for.
