Oscilloscopes add CAN/LIN option
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 6/1/2006 2:00:00 AM
Agilent Technologies has introduced an automotive triggering and real-time decode option for its 6000 Series mixed-signal oscilloscopes that helps automotive engineers find and debug errors and signal-integrity problems in controller area network (CAN) and local interconnect network (LIN) designs.
The N5424A CAN/LIN option features hardware-accelerated decode of the CAN and LIN serial buses. Waveforms are updated at up to 100,000 real-time waveforms per second. Agilent claims that the high waveform-update rates of the 6000 Series combined with the fast decode-update rates of the CAN/LIN option enable designers to find and debug intermittent errors and signal-integrity problems that they could miss with other decode tools.
The N5424A CAN/LIN option allows engineers to trigger on either standard or extended CAN message IDs, including the message ID of a remote transfer request frame. It supports triggering on a data frame and allows engineers to specify message IDs, data, and data length for filtering messages of interest. Triggering on active error frames also is supported.
The CAN/LIN option is available in the four-channel models of the 6000 Series. Price: CAN/LIN option—$1500. 6000 Series—starts at $4595. Agilent Technologies, www.agilent.com
