MS Series Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes Complete Embedded System Test Analog. Digital. Serial. The Ultimate Mixed Signal Oscilloscope A mixed signal oscilloscope (MSO) is the ideal tool for the design and debug of today's embedded systems providing the only way to see analog, digital and serial data signals simultaneously on one instrument as they occur in real time. Embedded system designers need to view signals into and out of devices such as microcontrollers, DSPs, FPGAs, ADCs, DACs, and transducers while ensuring proper timing and bus traffic. Unmatched Digital Performance Analog Performance Reimagined The MS Series offers unmatched digital A great MSO must be built on a great performance and is available in two oscilloscope and the WaveRunner (R) MXi models, the MS-500 and MS-250. and WaveSurfer (R) MXs are two of the Designed to capture long records of best. With bandwidths from 200 MHz the fastest digital signals the MS-500 to 2 GHz, sampling rates up to 10 GS/s, has a maximum input frequency of 12.5 Mpts/Ch available memory, and a 500 MHz, while other MSOs are wide range of math, measurement and limited to only 250 MHz. The long triggering capabilities the WaveRunner MXi memory of 50 Mpts/Ch means that and WaveSurfer MXs platforms are power- these fast signals can be captured for ful and versatile. Both models feature a big, up to 25 ms at up to 2 GS/s sampling bright 10.4" color touch screen for easy rate. On top of this raw performance, viewing of all your analog and digital the MS-500 supports up to 36 channels signals and both are only 6" deep. --enough for all the ADDR, DATA, control lines and serial data busses. This makes it the perfect tool for embedded systems with 16-bit or 32-bit microcontrollers. The Best Serial Data Bus Testing Monitoring serial data busses is a major part of embedded system design and test. The ability to quickly locate and isolate The MS-250 is the ideal tool for testing specific messages embedded systems with 8-bit micro- on these busses is controllers or slower digital signals. important for efficient With 250 MHz max. input frequency, testing. With LeCroy's 18 channels and 10 Mpts/Ch memory unique color-coded overlay for the MS-250 is an outstanding value decoded bus data and powerful, and provides a complete set of tools flexible conditional triggering, the for embedded system testing. MS Series captures all important bus traffic in your system and easily shows important data messages from I2C, SPI, 2 UART, RS-232, and LIN busses. The Complete Mixed Signal Toolset Analog, Digital and Cross-pattern Triggering signals. With the MS Series this The WaveRunner MXi and analog/digital cross-pattern WaveSurfer MXs oscilloscopes trigger, analog/digital event come with an extensive set of triggering and the capability to triggering capabilities aimed at select any digital channel as the capturing a wide range of analog source for an analog trigger. triggering is enhanced, adding Use the oscilloscope triggers with digital channels. Set up a simple or complex cross-pattern trigger with any combination of up to 4 analog and 36 digital channels. Set pattern with a choice of 1, 0, Rising Edge, Falling Edge, Either Edge or Don't Care conditions. Easy-to-use Measurement Tools Cursors and measurement parameters are an important part of any oscilloscope. When using the MS Series these tools measure digital channels as well analog channels. Cursors read out hexadecimal bus values while parameters make timing measurements on a single digital channel, between two digital channels or even between an analog and a digital channel. Frequency Delay Width Period Delay Duty Cycle Use oscilloscope tools like horizontal and vertical cursors along with automatic measurements and statistics to measure analog and digital signals. 3 Insight into Your Embedded System The display of a mixed signal oscilloscope is your view into the analog, digital and serial data signals that drive your embedded system. The big 10.4" color touch screen of the WaveRunner MXi and WaveSurfer MXs simplifies how you use your MSO and makes seeing signal details easier especially when viewing a combination of up to 4 analog and 36 digital channels. 1. Trigger and decode serial data 4. Analog bandwidths from signals such as I C, SPI, UART, 200 MHz to 2 GHz with RS-232, and LIN. The decoded sampling rates up to 10 GS/s. 2 data is presented with a unique color-coded overlay for easy identification. Zoom in closer to see even more data as each individual bit is decoded. Built-in search capability will quickly scan for specific messages on the bus. 2. Use cursors to read hexadecimal bus values or make manual timing measurements. 3. Automatic measurement parameters like period, frequency and duty cycle work on digital lines just as they would on oscilloscope channels. Statistics and Histicons provide detailed measurement 5. Up to 50 Mpts/Ch digital memory provides very long capture times of all your digital signals, with 1 sampling rates up to 2 GS/s. 6. Long oscilloscope memory enables capturing long records of analog signals while maintaining high sample rate for fast edges. 7. Complete analog/digital cross triggering. Set up a simple or complex pattern using any combination of up to 4 analog and 36 digital channels. 8.
