Choosing Logic Analyzers: Often Overlooked Probes

Choosing Logic Analyzers: Often Overlooked Probes

Abstract There are numerous articles introducing the performance of logic analyzers, but few specifically discuss the measurement probes for logic analyzers. It is important to note that the instrument itself is only part of the measurement system; the choice of measurement probes and their manufacturing processes are also crucial. Many times, we use the most … Read more
