Summary
You have just learned how to make a simple state measurement with the HP 16510B Logic Analyzer. You have:
∙specified a state analyzer
∙learned which probes to connect
∙assigned pods 1, 2, and 3
∙assigned labels
∙assigned bits
∙specified the J clock
∙specified a trigger condition
∙acquired the data
∙interpreted the State Listing
You have seen how easy it is to use the state analyzer to capture the data on the address and data buses. You can use this same technique to capture and display related data on the microprocessor status, control, and various strobe lines. You are not limited to using this technique on microprocessors. You can use this technique anytime you need to capture data on multiple lines and need to sample the data relative to a system clock.
The next chapter teaches you how to use the logic analyzer as an interactive timing and state analyzer. You will see a simple measurement that shows you both timing waveforms and state listings and how they are correlated.
