The XYZs of Logic Analyzers
    Primer



    Introduction
Like so many electronic test and measurement tools, a logic analyzer
is a solution to a particular class of problems. It is a versatile tool
that can help you with digital hardware debug, design verification
and embedded software debug. The logic analyzer is an indispensa-
ble tool for engineers who design digital circuits.
Logic analyzers are used for digital measurements involving numer-
ous signals or challenging trigger requirements. In this document,
you will learn about logic analyzers and how they work.
In this introduction to logic analyzers, we will first look at the digital
oscilloscope and the resulting evolution of the logic analyzer. Then
you will be shown what comprises a basic logic analyzer. With this
basic knowledge you'll then learn what capabilities of a logic ana-
lyzer are important and why they play a major part in choosing the
correct tool for your particular application.
