The
Tektronix TLA 510 and 520 Logic Analyzers consist of a system unit, color
X Terminal, application software packages, and probes for acquiring data.
The logic analyzer is available in one of two products: the 100-channel
TLA 510 and the 200-channel TLA 520. Each come with a standard 8 Kbytes of acquisition memory. Both logic analyzers are available with several options including deeper memory depths. A Pattern
Generator (92S16) is available for the
TLA 510 only.
Hardware
The system unit provides computing power, input/output features, and mass
storage for the internal acquisition and pattern generation modules.
The standard display device is a color X Terminal with a keyboard and a mouse.
Interactive menus define the contents of the system.
The system unit consists of the following major internal components:
100 channels of data acquisition (200 channels for the TLA 520)
40 MHz 68ECO30 CPU
Hard and floppy disk drives
RS-232 ports
Local Area Network (LAN) interface
External input and output connections
The mass-storage device in the system unit is a SCSI hard disk drive. The
operating system software is installed on the hard disk.
A 3.5-inch floppy disk drive is standard in the system unit. The floppy disk drive is used for loading application software from floppy disk, copying user files for use on other
TLA 510 & 520 mainframes, and making or restoring backup user files.
The system unit supports three 9-pin RS-232 communication ports accessible on the rear panel:
The Terminal port connects the system unit to a console terminal (X
Terminal serial window or other serial display devise).
The Host port connects the system unit to a host computer system.
The Auxiliary port connects the system unit to other RS-232-compatible
devices (for example, a printer).
The local area network connects the system unit to the X Terminal. The LAN
software also provides a means to transfer files between the logic analyzer and a host computer through ftp (file transfer protocol) and other protocols. An optional 92LANP application software product allows you to remotely control the logic analyzer through the LAN interface.
A 37-pin female D-connector allows you to monitor or drive external devices
with the optional 92PORT application software. The connector provides eight
discrete inputs, eight discrete outputs, and corresponding strobe read and write signals.
Configurations
The
TLA 510 logic analyzer comes with 100 channels of acquisition and is
available with acquisition memory depths of 8 Kbits, upgradable to 32 Kbits,
128 Kbits, 512 Kbits, or 2 Mbits. The
TLA 510 logic analyzer can be upgraded
with up to 200 channels of acquisition or 16 channels of pattern generation
at 50 MHz.
The
TLA 520 logic analyzer comes with 200 channels of acquisition and is
available with acquisition memory depths of 8 Kbits, upgradable to 32 Kbits,
128 Kbits, 512 Kbits, or 2 Mbits.
To upgrade either logic analyzer, you must return the instrument to an authorized service center and have
Tektronix perform the upgrade. For information regarding available upgrades, contact your local
Tektronix sales representative.
Both logic analyzers come standard with a 14-inch X Terminal, 101-key
keyboard, and mouse.
