Low-cost logic analyser operates to
100MHz
Offers 32 data channels at up to 25MHz in synchronous or asynchronous mode, and eight data channels at 100MHz in asynchronous mode
The TA320S from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments) is a self-contained logic analyser that offers 32 data channels and 100MHz acquisition for under £600 The TA320S is highly compact, but has a built-in LCD screen capable of displaying high-resolution graphics or 40-column text

Simplified data handling for RS232/GPIB hardware
The new DDDA data acquisition software from Stanford Research Systems simplifies the control and plotting of data from all RS232 and GPIB instruments using Windows 95/98 and NT.
Harmonics analyser measures flicker
The HA 1600 from TTi is upgraded to incorporate both Amendment 14 to the harmonics legislation standard (EN61000-3-2), and extra flicker measurement capabilities to EN61000-3-3
Control and data entry is by a combination of 'soft' keys and an alphanumeric keypad.
An RS-232 interface is incorporated which allows data to be sent to (or loaded from) a personal computer.
The TA320S offers 32 data channels at up to 25MHz in synchronous or asynchronous mode, and eight data channels at 100MHz in asynchronous mode.
Glitch capture for events as short as 5ns is also provided.
A choice of data pods is available to suit a wide variety of applications.
The trigger sequencer has up to four steps, with event counting and re-start at each step.
Clock delay can also be added, and the trigger can be positioned anywhere within the store.
Three external clock inputs are provided, each with its own qualifier selectable for active edge and active level respectively.
This gives highly flexible clocking for synchronous data capture.
State and timing displays can be selected, and data can be grouped as required under user-defined names.
Full search and compare facilities are incorporated.
Automatic comparisons between the memories can be performed on a user-specified area of the data, and acquisition can be stopped on an equality or inequality.
Non-volatile storage of both acquisitions and set-ups is also provided, with sufficient memory for ten acquisitions and ten set-ups.
Optional disassembler pods provide support for a range of popular microprocessors.
The disassembler software resides within each pod, thus eliminating the need to install special software within the analyser.
The TA320S is highly compact and portable, measuring 260x88x235mm and weighing less than 1.5kg.
It costs £595 (plus VAT) in the UK.
