LeCroy’s Serial AudioBus trigger, decode, and graph package provides all the tools needed to properly analyze and debug digital audio buses. LeCroy’s solution addresses the I2S, LJ, RJ, and TDM variations of the audio bus standard.

Due to its branching hierarchical protocol structure, Bluetooth is one of the most complicated protocols from a design and analysis standpoint. To simplify this process LeCroy has developed a family of expert Bluetooth analyzer systems that are designed to meet every need and budget.

CANbus TD or TDM combines standard LeCroy oscilloscope capabilities, CAN Bus triggering, and protocol decode in one test system. Now it’s simple to capture a specific CAN message or error frame and view protocol data on the same display as the CAN signal or analog signals. Understanding system problems and performance has never been this easy! LeCroy CANbus TD or TDM, and a LeCroy WaveRunner, WaveSurfer or WavePro 7 Zi Series oscilloscope, is the solution for locating CAN Bus anomalies and debugging CAN Bus controllers and systems.

Ethernet testing compliant with IEEE 802.3-2005 requires many test setups and connections and mask tests. Using LeCroy QualiPHY-ENET these measurements are easy to setup and complete. Instructive connection diagrams and message boxes appear as pop ups on the oscilloscope screen. The connection diagram instructs the user how to change test fixture and jumper pins in order to do complete test. When the tests are complete, QualiPHY will generate a test report in PDF, HTML, or XML formats. Jitter and pulse mask tests are performed with automatic waveform alignment, and all test results feature pass/fail indicators corresponding to the standard being tested.

Eye Doctor is a DSO-based instrumentation and simulation system which addresses these measurement challenges and is a dramatic leap in interoperability and compliance testing capability. Eye Doctor provides the tools to undo or compensate many common forms of distortion thereby increasing signal to noise, opening eyes, increasing rise time, reducing jitter restoring lost bandwidth and improving waveform fidelity.

Eye Doctor II provides the channel emulation and de-embedding tools that engineers need for the next generation of serial data standards

The FlexRay trigger, decode and physical layer test package adds a unique set of tools to your oscilloscope simplifying how you design and debug your FlexRay systems. The powerful internal FlexRay trigger quickly locates specific IDs or messages and the unique overlay shows decoded data directly on top of the physical layer signal. The eye diagram and timing measurements quickly locate physical layer problems. LeCroy's integration of trigger, decode and physical layer testing shortens FlexRay testing time.

The SDA family of Serial Data Analyzers provides a concise set of validation/verification and debug tools written in accordance with High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) electrical test specifications. Covered HDMI test modes include Source and Cable Tests covering amplitude-timing, and jitter parameters as well as cable impedance tests. In addition to standard eye pattern and jitter tests for HDMI, the SDA real-time test equipment platform provides a complete set of amplitude and jitter measurements, as defined in the HDMI specification.

Advanced software algorithms decon struct the waveform into protocol information, then overlay the decoded data on the waveform. Decode information condenses or expands depending on the timebase/zoom ratio setting, so understanding messages is easy. Various sections of the protocol are color-coded to make it easy to understand, especially for users new to I2C, SPI, UART, and RS-232 serial data. The decode operation is fast—even with long acquisitions. The user can choose to decode into Hex, Binary, or ASCII formats.

With serial data analysis experience dating back to 1995, LeCroy is uniquely positioned to provide IEEE-1394 physical layer and protocol layer test tools for the PC and consumer electronics market. LeCroy offers a variety of oscilliscope and analysis products designed to characterize and verify 1394A communication links.

The Infiniband architecture supports high speed serial data links operating at 2.5Gb/s and its support of a switch fabric that allows data from any node in the network to communicate to any other node without being routed through a CPU.

Full support for LIN 1.3, 2.x, and J2602 ensures that no matter what version of LIN you use, you'll be able to trigger and decode. In addition, triggering provides complete capability to trigger on any event with completely definable Message ID and DATA triggers, or flexible Error Frame triggering. Patented software algorithms deconstruct the waveform into protocol decode information, then overlay the decoded data on the waveform.

Physical layer verification is a very important part of the design cycle for any MIPI device. By performing physical layer performance validation the user can be assured that their designs meets the specification as well as minimize the risk of interoperability failures in the future.

PCI Express (PCIe) has become the leading interconnect technology to succeed the Peripheral Connect Interface (PCI) architecture. LeCroy released the first PCIe protocol analyzer in February of 2003. LeCroy also offers oscilloscope solution on their SDA 13000 analyzer designed to perform compliance testing at the phyical layer.

QualiPHY is designed to reduce the time and effort needed to perform compliance testing on a wide array of high-speed serial buses. QualiPHY is the most intuitive and efficient tool available for performing serial data compliance testing. Selecting a new standard or test setup is done without leaving the main screen, and the user can start testing with a single button press.

Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is the next evolution of SCSI beyond Ultra320. It utilizes serial, point-to-point, switched architecture and promises to greatly expand upon the existing capabilities of its parallel predecessor. Serial Attached SCSI intends to leverage the 20 years of proven SCSI legacy middleware/software that is entrenched in the enterprise, as well as deliver a powerful small form factor connection scheme, capable of achieving substantially better performance and scalability than parallel SCSI offers today.
