Probes and Input Channels:

  • Probes are used to connect the GAO Tek’s logic analyzer to the digital circuit under test.
  • Input channels are connectors that receive digital signals from the circuit.

Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC): ADCs are used to convert the analog signals from the circuit into digital data that our logic analyzer can process.

Memory:

  • Memory is essential for storing the captured digital data for analysis.
  • It allows users to review and analyze signals over time.

Processor:

  • The logic analyzer typically includes a processor to control and coordinate the operation of the instrument.
  • It manages data capture, storage, and retrieval processes.

Display Unit:

  • The display unit presents captured data in a human-readable format.
  • It may include features such as waveform displays, data tables, and timing diagrams.

Triggering System:

  • The triggering system allows users to specify conditions under which data capture should occur.
  • It helps in synchronizing the analyzer with specific events in the circuit.

Control Interface: A user interface, often in the form of buttons, knobs, or a graphical user interface (GUI), allows users to control and configure the logic analyzer.

Clock Generator: Some of our logic analyzers have an internal clock generator that can be used to provide a clock signal for synchronous data capture.

Decoders:

  • Decoders assist in translating digital signals into meaningful data or information.
  • They help users understand the logic states and analyze the behavior of the circuit.

Software Interface:

  • GAO Tek’s Logic analyzers are often accompanied by software that runs on a computer.
  • The software provides advanced analysis tools, protocol decoding, and other features.

Power Supply: A power supply provides the necessary voltage and current to operate GAO’S logic analyzer.

Enclosure and Connectors: The physical housing of our logic analyzer, as well as the connectors for probes and additional peripherals.
