Logic Analysis made easy: a self-paced training guide

This training kit will quickly teach you how to use the HP 1660 and HP 1670 Series Logic Analyzers to get your work done. The exercises in this book will teach you how to perform basic timing and state analysis measurements and how to make more complex measurements, such as comparing two state listings, setting up complex state triggers, and making state and timing measurements simultaneously. You will also learn oscilloscope measurements if you are using a logic analyzer that has a built-in oscilloscope. You will see how easy it is to use the HP 1660 and HP 1670 Series Logic Analyzers, and at the same time, learn basic digital measurement concepts.

The exercises in this training guide are designed to work with any of the HP 1660 or HP 1670 Series analyzers with some exceptions: the exercise in chapter 5, "Mixed Mode - Correlation of State and Timing Data," will not work with an HP 1663 or HP 1664. Also, you need an analyzer with an internal oscilloscope for chapters 7 and 8. If your analyzer has an oscilloscope, you will see a "CS" after the model number. To do the exercises in chapter 9, you will need an analyzer with an internal pattern generator. If your analzyer has a pattern generator, you will see a "CP" after the model number.
