8 Theory of Operation
Block Level Theory
The block- level theory includes the theory of operation of
the logic analyzer in terms of the major subsystems
including:
• CPU subsystem.
• PCI board.
• MIB (module interface board).
• Front panel assembly.
CPU Subsystem
The CPU subsystem includes:
• CPU board (more on page 91).
• Disk drives (more on page 91).
