Modular Logic Analyzers Support Hosted Capabilities March 2004 Issue Published Date: March 09, 2004
Weighing in as the industry’s first modular logic analyzers with hosted capabilities, the 16900 series includes three mainframes that are configurable for current applications while accommodating future expansion. Each relies on the company's hosted-mode feature that allows users to host software on one PC for remote access and control from any Windows-based PC on the network. The 16900A and 16902A operate in either standalone or multi-frame configurations with the ability to connect additional frames. Accepting up to six modules, the 16900A employs an external display, while the 6-slot 19602A and 3-slot 16903A come with integrated touch screen displays. Supporting the series are three modules, all of which provide simultaneous 4 GHz timing with state measurements. The 68-channel 16950A provides a 600-MHz state speed, and the 102-channel 16910A and 68-channel 16911A provide state speeds up to 450 MHz. Mainframe prices range from $12,000 to $15,000, and modules range from $9,000 to $18,500. AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES INC., Palo Alto, CA. (800) 452-4844, ext. 7877.
