TLA5000 Series Service Manual
NOTE. Before testing an instrument following repair, you must first complete the
adjustment procedure.
Table 4--2 lists the specifications as checked (n)intheTektronix Logic Analyzer
Product Specifications document for the logic analyzer and the performance
verification software checks used to verify those specifications. In addition to the
software test listed in the table, some specifications are verified by the built-in
diagnostics. By running all tests and diagnostics, you will verify the performance
of the logic analyzer and probes.
Table 4- 2: Performance verification tests
Specification Test method
Threshold accuracy Verified by the Thresholds test. Certified by
running Certification procedure; refer to Logic
Analyzer Certificat ion beginning on page 4--19.
Channel-to-channel skew Verified indirectly by the Setup and Hold
procedure
Internal sampling period Verified indirectly by Pulse Width procedure
and Time Base Accuracy procedure
Minimum recognizable word (across all
channels)
Verified indirectly by the Setup and Hold
procedure and by the Internal Sampling Period
Setup and hold window size (data and
qualifiers)
Verified directly by Setup and Hold procedure
(Can only be run with P6419 probes)
Maximum synchronous clock rate Diagnostics verify the clock detect ion/sampling
circuitry. Bandwidth i s verifi ed by Setup and
Hold procedures and by the Pul se Width
procedure
Counters and timers Verified by diagnostics
Trigger state sequence rate Verified indirectly by the at-speed diagnostics
and the Internal Sampling Period
