Versatile tester for IEEE-1394 bus
The new FireWorks 1394 VK9000 from Yokogawa Martron is designed to provide engineers with a powerful 'out of the box' solution for testing systems based on the IEEE-1394 bus.
Bluetooth analysis via the USB
At the Embedded Systems Show Yokogawa Martron is introducing a new Bluetooth analyser to complement its range of test and measurement tools for communications and bus protocol analysis.
The instrument is ideal for debugging, examining noise or level fluctuations, and viewing CANbus signals simultaneously with other control inputs.
A wide choice of trigger options combined with high-speed search functions makes it possible to rapidly identify and analyse problem areas in data that has been captured and stored in the DL7200's large memories.
The instrument supports both high-speed and low-speed CAN specifications at data rates between 33.3Kbit/s and 1Mbit/s.
Waveforms of up to 16Mword can be captured into memory, with bus activity viewed simultaneously with analysis results.
This enables the user to easily verify how noise or level fluctuations affect the communication data, enabling rapid and efficient debugging.
Upper and lower threshold levels can be set to judge the state of each bit.
Other features include data-search, field-jump and stuff-bit calculation functions.
The complete analyser comprises a four-channel digital oscilloscope and a 16bit logic analyser, allowing the user to analyse CANbus data from the system under investigation.
