EasySYNC Further Expands Portfolio of USB Instruments with Pocket-Sized Logic/Protocol Analyser
EasySYNC introduces the ES-DLA-8/16. This multi-purpose PC-based analysis device is part of the company’s USB Instruments product range. It combines logic analyser and protocol analyser functionality in a single lightweight product of compact dimensions.
It fMeasuring just 40mm x 10mm x 53mm, the ES-DLA-8/16 offers a choice of 8 or 16 data acquisition channels, a maximum sampling rate of 60 MHz run length encoding or 4 bit raw and an external clock input. The triggering modes supported by it are rising edge, falling edge, high level and low level – allowing analysis flexibility to be increased. Furthermore a pre-trigger mode enables the position of the trigger in the acquired data to be set at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% buffer. A maximum of 1 billion samples in total can be stored through the supplied EasyLogic software application . When operating as a protocol analyser, the ES-DLA-8/16 supports I2C, SPI, asynchronous serial and OneWire serial bus protocols.
“The ES-DLA-8/16, along with our latest Stingray oscilloscope/data logger/spectrum analyser, present the industry with a new breed of cost-effective analysis tools that are highly portable and simple to use,” states Susan Maxwell, General Manager at EasySYNC, “These instruments give engineers access to a breadth of test functionality without having to invest heavily in the purchasing of multiple pieces of equipment.”
The ES-DLA-8/16’s firmware is upgradeable via a USB interconnect to maximise convenience for future hardware updates.
Certified drivers are available for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8, both 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems and Mac OS X 10.7~10.8. The instrument is offered in a sleek, attractive enclosure with rubberized mouldings for added ruggedness. Probes and a carrying bag are included too.
