Hardware trigger (Continued)

Timeout

Trigger when a channel stays high, low, or unchanged for too long. Timeout setting: from 250 ps to 10 s

Pattern/pulse range

Triggers when a specified logical combination of the channels is entered, exited, present for a specified period of

time or is within a specified time range or times out. Each channel can have a value of High (H), Low (L) or Don’t care

(X)

State

Pattern trigger clocked by the rising, falling or alternating between rising and falling edge of one channel

Window

Triggers on an event associated with a window defined by two-user adjustable thresholds. Event can be window

“entered,” “exited,” “inside (time qualified),” or “outside (time qualified)” voltage range. Trigger point can be “cross

window boundary” or “time out.” Time qualify range: from 250 ps to 10 s

Video

Triggers from negative sync composite video, field 1, field 2, or alternating fields for interlaced systems, any field,

specific line, or any line for interlaced or non-interlaced systems. Supports NTSC, PAL-M (525/60), PAL, SECAM

(625/50), EDTV (480p/60), EDTV (576p/50), HDTV (720p/60), HDTV (720p/50), HDTV (1080i/60), HDTV (1080i/50),

HDTV (1080p/60), HDTV (1080p/50), HDTV (1080p/30), HDTV (1080p/25), HDTV (1080p/24), and user-defined

formats

Trigger sequences

Three-stage trigger sequences including two-stage hardware (Find event (A) and Trigger event (B)) and one-stage

InfiniiScan software trigger. Supports all hardware trigger modes except “edge then edge” and “video,” and all

InfiniiScan software trigger modes. Supports “delay (by time)” and “reset (by time or event)” between two hardware

sequences. The minimum latency between “find event (A)” and “trigger event (B)” is 3 ns

Trigger qualification and qualifier

Single or multiple channels may be logically qualified with any other trigger mode

Trigger holdoff range

100 ns to 10 s

Trigger actions

Specify an action to occur and the frequency of the action when a trigger condition occurs. Actions include email on

trigger and execute “multipurpose” user setting

Software trigger (Requires N5414B InfiniiScan event identification software – Option 009)

Trigger modes

Zone qualify

Software triggers on the user-defined zones on screen. Zones can be specified as either “must intersect” or “must

not intersect.” Up to eight zones can be defined across multiple channels

Generic serial

Software triggers on NRZ-encoded data up to 8.0 Gbps, up to 80-bit pattern. Support multiple clock data recovery

methods including constant frequency, 1st-order PLL, 2nd-order PLL, explicit clock, explicit 1st-order PLL, explicit

2nd-order PLL, Fibre Channel, FlexRay receiver, FlexRay transmitter (requires E2688A except for the constant

frequency clock data recovery mode)

Measurement limit

Software triggers on the results of the measurement values. For example, when the “pulse width” measurement is

turned on, InfiniiScan measurement software trigger triggers on a glitch as narrow as 40 ps. When the “time interval

error (TIE)” is measured, InfiniiScan can trigger on a specific TIE value

Non-monotonic edge

Software triggers on the non-monotonic edge. The non-monotonic edge is specified by setting a hysteresis value

Runt

Software triggers on a pulse that crosses one threshold but fails to cross a second threshold before crossing the

first again. Unlike hardware runt trigger, InfiniiScan runt trigger can be further qualified via a hysteresis value
