Combining the benefits of industry-leading MegaZoom deep

memory and mixed-signal oscilloscope models, Infiniium

makes it faster and easier than ever to see what's happening

in your high-speed digital or communications design.

View and Trigger on up to 4 Analog

and 16 Digital Channels

With the Agilent 54830D Series

of Mixed-Signal Oscilloscopes

(MSOs), you can easily view the

complex relationships of your

analog and digital signals, as

well as the analog characteristics

of digital signals. If your

embedded designs include

complex digital buses such as

PCI or SDRAM, the 54830D

Series of MSOs allow you to

easily trigger on and view up to

20 time-aligned analog and digital

signals to isolate problems and

cycles of interest.

Industry-Leading Deep Memory with

Instant Response

With up to 128 Mpts of acquisi-

tion memory, the Agilent 54830

Series of MSOs and DSOs offers

superior resolution when captur-

ing long, complex waveforms.

But a deep-memory scope doesn’t

have to be difficult to use.

Infiniium scopes from Agilent

utilize MegaZoom technology

through the full 128 Mpts for fast

waveform updates and respon-

sive user input controls.

Here’s what engineers are saying about their Infiniium scopes.

Simple things are simple

Analog-like front panel provides

simple controls for basic func-

tions — easy to find and easy

to use.

Easy access to advanced features

Familiar Windows®-based graph-

ical user interface makes it easy

to navigate and access advanced

features.

Convenient communication and

data sharing

PC architecture with a standard

LAN interface makes it easy to

share your work and communi-

cate your results.

Automatic deep memory with

instant response

With Infiniium’s MegaZoom deep

memory, you can easily make

long single-shot acquisitions and

search through your data with

instant response.

Powerful Mixed-Signal Triggering

No matter how complicated the

signals you’re dealing with, the

Infiniium MSO has a triggering

feature that can help you easily

untangle it. The Infiniium MSOs

provide you with the most com-

plete triggering functionality

ever offered in an oscilloscope.

The 54830D Series Infiniium

MSOs come with powerful trig-

gering capabilities across all

16 digital channels and all

available analog channels so you

can easily isolate and analyze

complex signals and interactions

in your mixed analog and

digital designs.

X-Ray Vision for Your FPGAs

The new N5397A FPGA Dynamic

Probe for the Infiniium MSO

enables its 16 digital channels

to capture and trigger on signals

inside of your Xilinx FPGA that

can then be correlated to exter-

nal analog activity.

Seamless Integration of Analog and

Digital Channels

The Agilent 54830D Series

Mixed-Signal Oscilloscopes unique-

ly combine the detailed signal

analysis of a high-performance

scope with the 16-channel timing

measurements of a logic analyzer,

plus the benefits of fast, usable,

and affordable MegaZoom

deep memory.

On one display you can have

both the analog circuit charac-

teristics displayed on the 2 or

4 scope channels and the digital

signals displayed on the 16 logic

timing channels. Digital and

analog events are aligned in time

so you can easily relate cause and

effect in difficult mixed-signal

troubleshooting situations. The

analog and digital channels are

seamlessly integrated giving you

familiar scope-like controls of

both the analog and digital tim-

ing channels. And there is no

compromise on the scope side —

you just can treat all 18 or 20

channels the same.

Verifying and analyzing your mixed-signal design

Here we see a data line and the clock

of a standard SDRAM isolated in a

write cycle. This was accomplished by

triggering with 4 digital channels and

1 analog channel of the 54833D MSO

when the SDRAM’s CS, CAS, and WE

lines are low, while RAS is high on the

rising edge of the clock. The second

analog channel is used for looking at the

analog characteristics of a data line.

The increased channels, deep memory,

and advanced triggering of an MSO can

help you debug today's complex designs

more efficiently than you could with a

DSO. Trying to do this with a traditional

2- or 4-channel DSO would be difficult

or impossible. The traditional option

for measuring a multi-channel system

would be to connect and configure a

logic analyzer with a DSO which can be

costly and time-consuming. Fortunately,

Agilent’s MSO fills this need without

the cost or frustration.

The 54830 Series Infiniium

scopes use advanced MegaZoom

technology so you get all the ben-

efits of fast, automatic, affordable

deep memory. Due to its unique

ASIC architecture, this powerful

memory management system

called MegaZoom can quickly

display up to 128 million points

of continuous signal history

without the usual bottlenecks

and frustrating delays.

Industry-leading deep memory up to 128 Mpts, without annoying delays

Instant Response

While first-generation deep-

memory scopes update the

display slowly, Infiniium’s

MegaZoom memory management

system instantaneously updates

the display even with the deepest

memory. And deep memory is on

all the time — so you always have

the maximum available sample

rate and don’t undersample or

miss fast events. Discover prob-

lems you never found with your

first-generation deep-memory

scope.

Optimum Resolution

Get the insight you need to solve

your debugging challenges in a

fraction of the time it used to

take. Just press the Autoscale

key to automatically adjust the

sample rate to achieve the best

waveform resolution. Then, as

you change the horizontal scale

to display more time and view

your entire signal, MegaZoom

adds more memory to give you

the fastest sample rate and best

resolution possible. Now you

can automatically see events

as narrow as 250 ps without

using a special mode such as

peak detect.

Unprecedented Deep Memory

Every Infiniium 54830 Series with

MegaZoom is a deep-memory

oscilloscope with up to a standard

2 Mpts of memory on each chan-

nel. Now memory options are

available to configure your scope

with up to 128 Mpts to capture

the longest waveforms without

reducing sample rate.

By combining powerful features,

ease of use, and industry-leading

specifications, Infiniium scopes

help you find answers faster.

A simple, analog-like front

panel, Windows-based interface

to easily access advanced

features, and powerful connec-

tivity make high-performance

capabilities of Infiniium usable.

See fast events — as fast as 250 ps —

without using special modes like peak

detect. Peak points are displayed in a

darker color than the waveform indi-

cating more data points are available.

Just zoom in to see the event in detail.

Drag and drop markers with your

mouse or use the arrow keys.

Bus mode display allows quick readout

of digital channel value in hexa-decimal

representation at every transition.

See your signal more clearly with a

large (8.4-inch) high-resolution color

display. Infiniium's bright TFT display

with anti-glare coating lets you see the

details of your signal from all angles.

Store all your setups and results on

the ≥20 GB hard drive for future recall

or sharing via the LAN interface. Order

option 017 to make it removeable for

operation in secure environments.

Remote access with web-enabled

connectivity, e-mail on trigger, and

GPIB over LAN.

Windows®XP Pro based open

platform makes it easier than ever

to run Windows applications inside

f Infiniium.

Save all waveforms, including digital

and analog channels, that allows you

to store multiple waveforms in ASCII

file formats to a single file with a

single mouse click.

Infiniium's task-oriented Setup Guide

provides step-by-step instructions for

several advanced measurements and

procedures.

Maximum sample rate and resolution

on every measurement. The scope

automatically adjusts memory depth

up to 128 Mpts as you use it, so you

get maximum sample rate and resolu-

tion on every measurement. You don't

even have to think about it.

Pick out anomalies easily with

intensity-graded persistence mode,

color-graded persistence, a colorful

visual representation of waveform

distribution.

QuickMeas+ gives you any four auto-

mated measurements with the push of

a button. You can also configure this

key to print/save screen shots, save

waveforms, or load a favorite setup.

With the E2699A My Infiniium

Software option, configure the

QuickMeas+ key to execute a custom

analysis executable program.

Autoscale automatically sets deep

memory to the amount required up

to 128 Mpts for the maximum sample

rate and resolution. You never have to

set deep memory manually.

Segmented memory acquisition

mode captures bursting signals at

maximum sample rate without con-

suming memory during periods of

inactivity for very long periods of time.

A familiar interface makes simple

tasks simple. Infiniium's analog-like

front panel has a full set of controls

color coded to the LEDs, waveforms,

and measurements.

Easy access to advanced features

like math and FFTs is provided by the

Windows-based graphical user inter-

face. This GUI also gives you unique

capabilities like drag-and-drop measure-

ments and zooming, and offers a graphi-

cal equivalent to all front panel controls.

AutoProbe interface completely

configures your scope for use with

a wide range of passive, active and

differential probes.

With Infiniium, you don’t need

to navigate through annoying

softkey menus. Dialog boxes

display all the choices you need

for measurement setups, all in

one place. Help is available for

each field, guiding you through

each step.

Bus Mode Display

Bus mode display on MSOs

allows quick and easy read-out

of hexa-decimal representation

of logic signals. Bus state mode

display allows the bus readout

to be updated only upon the

edge of the clock source you

select. Available only with

54830D Series MSOs.

Simple Zooming

Zooming with Infiniium’s graphi-

cal user interface is simple and

Active Probes (Options 011, 012, 019)

Probing high-frequency signals

becomes more challenging as the

variety of test points and the fre-

quencies of the signals continue

to grow. Probes need to be light-

weight, small, affordable, and

offer the accessories and probe

tips you require to get your job

done easily.

For high-speed differential

signal measurements, the 1130A

InfiniiMax differential probe

is a perfect compliment to the

Infiniium 54830 Series oscillo-

scopes. Its 1.5 GHz probe band-

width, extremely low input

capacitance, high common mode

rejection and the patented resis-

tor probe tip technology provide

ultra-low loading of the DUT and

superior signal fidelity.

The 1156A active probe is a

small, low-mass, active probe

with bandwidth up to 1.5 GHz.

The probe offers a flat frequency

response across the entire probe

bandwidth, giving you accurate

insight into your high-speed

measurement. Agilent offers

a variety of probe tips to help

you probe any test point, and

the revolutionary EZ-Probe

Positioner® option provides sta-

ble, accurate X, Y, Z positioning

of your probe.

The 1155A probe is a low-mass,

versatile, and affordable 2-chan-

nel, 750-MHz active probe. Used

with an optional Wedge Probe

Adapter, this combination is an

excellent solution for probing

TQFP and PQFP packages. When

used with the standard grabber

tips, the 1155A can be used to

probe any test point. When used

with the 600 MHz Infiniium

oscilloscopes, this pairing deliv-

ers 2 channels with a system

bandwidth of 500 MHz.

Edge Triggers on a specified slope and voltage level on any channel, auxiliary trigger (4 channel models),

external trigger (2 channel models) or line input.

Glitch Triggers on glitches narrower than the other pulses in your waveform by specifying a width less

than your narrowest pulse and a polarity. Minimum glitch width is 500 ps (analog channels) or

2.5 ns (digital channels on 54830D/31D/32D/33D). Glitch range settings: <1.5 ns to <160 ms

(54830A/B Series), <1.5 ns to <10 s (analog channels on 54830D/31D/32D/33D),

<5 ns to <10 s (digital channels on 54830D/31D/32D/33D)

Line Triggers on the line voltage powering the oscilloscope.

Pattern Triggers when a specified logical combination of the channels is entered, exited, is present or

absent for a specified period of time or is within a specified time range. Each channel can have a

value of High (H), Low (L) or Don’t care (X).

State Pattern trigger clocked by the rising or falling edge of one channel. Logic type: AND or NAND.

Delay by Time The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified time delay between 30 ns to 160 ms (5 ns to

10 s for 54830D/31D/32D/33D) a rising or falling edge on any one selected input will generate

the trigger.

Delay by Events The trigger is qualified by an edge. After a specified delay between 1 to 16,000,000 rising or falling

edges on any one selected input will generate the trigger.

TV Trigger on one of the three standard television waveforms: 525 lines/60 Hz (NTSC)

625 lines/50 Hz (PAL), or define a custom waveform

Violation Triggers

Pulse Width See Trigger Mode Glitch for performance characteristics.

Setup/Hold Triggers on setup, hold or setup and hold violations in your circuit. Requires a clock and data signal

on any two input channels as trigger sources. High and low thresholds and setup and/or hold

time must then be specified.

Transition Trigger on pulse rising or falling edges that do not cross two voltage levels in > or < the amount of

time specified.

http://buyalternatives.tm.agilent.com

The Infiniium scope you buy

today must also meet your per-

formance requirements for

tomorrow. Ensure that your

equipment can handle your

future needs with the right scope

and purchasing plan. Before you

select the Infiniium scope that’s

right for you, consider these

flexible purchasing options, so

you can get the best tools for

the job, regardless of your

company’s financial constraints.

Lease and Finance

If you’d like to improve your

balance sheet by expensing

equipment costs, or your budget

won’t cover the purchase price up

front, consider our leasing and

financing plans. We offer many

flexible options: select the term

you need, choose from various

paths for end of term, and even

revise your plan to include

eligible upgrades and add-ons.

Contact your local Agilent

Financial Services Center
