SP209 Series User Manual SP209 Series overview SP209 series logic analyzers and protocol decoders offer in depth analysis of logic signals and protocols with 200MHz (5ns) timing resolution. 9-channel operation allows 8-bit parallel data to be captured along with a clock or strobe signal. SP209 Series is composed of two devices, SP209 and SP209i. Both offer 9 logic inputs, but SP209i integrates industrial receivers for CAN, LIN, RS232 and RS485 buses.1 Figure 1: SP209 Logic Analyzer Figure 2: sp209i logic analyzer (industrial version) Typical applications SP series logic analyzers are...

SP209 Series User Manual Principle of operation SP209 Series logic analyzers connects to a computer via a USB cable. A free software - called ScanaStudio - is used to configure the device and display captured signals. The software can also be used to further analyze the captured samples by decoding protocols like I2C, SPI or UART. Embedded memory vs streaming USB based logic analyzers (ones that don’t have a display and rely on a computer for that matter) usually operate according to one of two schemes: • Using an embedded memory to store captured samples. Samples are later downloaded at a...

SP209 Series User Manual • A or B (whoever triggers first) Finally, an external trigger output is always active, in all modes and generates a trigger pulse whenever a trigger condition is met and a capture starts. Signal specifications for External trigger input and output are detailed in the following section. External trigger OUT specifications Figure 5: External trigger OUT timings There is an internal data path delay of 20ns before external signals reach internal trigger engine (T0). When trigger event occurs, 10ms (T2) pulse is generated on the Trig Out port. This port has a 50 Ωseries...

SP209 Series User Manual External trigger IN specifications Figure 6: External trigger IN timings The Trig In port allows to start acquisition on an external event generated by another instrument. The minimum pulse width (T1) is 5ns. Polarity can be set in software. The input impedance is also software selectable (100k Ωor 50 Ω). The threshold level is 1.0V. T2, the time between external trigger in active edge and internal trigger engine assertion is 20ns. Industrial port (SP209i only) SP209i offer the possibility to connect directly to industrial buses, as opposed to logic channels which...
