What Is the HP 16500A/16501A Logic
Analysis System?
               The HP 16500A is the mainframe of the Hewlett-Packard Logic Analysis
               System. It offers a modular structure for plug-in cards with a wide range
               of state, timing, oscilloscope, and pattern generator capabilities. This
               allows you to configure the HP 16500A using only the modules you need
               in order to perform a desired measurement or set of measurements, while
               giving you the flexibility to change or update them later.

               The HP 16501A is the add-on mainframe for expanding the module
               capacity of the HP 16500A. When the HP 16501A is connected to the HP
               16500A, they function as a single nine-card system which is turned on and
               controlled by the HP 16500A. The HP 16501A forms a tightly coupled
               system with the HP 16500A, permitting each of the two mainframes to
               arm or trigger any module from any other module.

               The Logic Analysis System provides both experienced and first-time users
               with powerful measurement capabilities. The pop-up menus and color
               graphics lead you through setups and measurements quickly and easily,
               without the need to memorize a lot of steps. By touching the appropriate
               fields or using the cursor of either the optional mouse or keyboard, you
               can perform functions, configure menus, and move from one menu to
               another.

               With the intermodule capabilities of the Logic Analysis System, you can
               make interactive measurements between modules. This allows you to
               configure modules to interact with each other, using the triggering
               capabilities of one module and the acquisition capabilities of another to
               make measurements.
