Model 1630A/D/G
General Information
INTRODUCTION
This manual describes how to operate the Hewlett-Packard Models 1630A, 1630D, and 1630G Logic
Analyzers. The three analyzers operate the same, but each have different configuration capabilities . The
1630G is the latest configuration with added performance measurement capabilities that are not possible with
the 1630A or 1630D logic analyzers. The differences are described, wherever applicable, throughout this
manual . This first chapter describes the physical and electrical characteristics of the analyzer . At the end of
this chapter are two tables : one lists the analyzer specifications guaranteed by HP, and the other lists the
analyzer operating characteristics.
MANUAL CONTENTS
Chapter 1
General Information
This manual contains instructions and information to help you install and operate the logic analyzer . It shows
how to assign labels in the format specification to identify signals from the input probes, and how to assign
symbols to represent values found on those labeled inputs .
Chapter 2 describes how to set up the logic analyzer for use. Directions are given for connecting the probe
cables to a system under test and initiating the analyzer self test .
Chapter 3 contains a menu map and a front panel keyboard description . The menu map helps to put the overall
operation of the analyzer into perspective . Page numbers are given byeach menu to reference the description
of the menu in the manual .
Chapter 4 of this manual is State Measurements . The basic state measurements, from taking a trace in a free-
run mode to selective tracing, is explained in a step-by-step process .
Chapter 5 contains the software performance analysis measurements . Although these measurements are
state measurements, an entire chapter is devoted to them because of the complexity of overview analysis .
Chapter 6 is a description of the timing measurements . Simple timing measurements are described in a step-
by-step process .
Chapter 7 describes interactive state/timing measurements .
Chapter 8 is a description of the system peripheral menus of the 1630A/D and the 1630G .
Chapter 9 contains the instructions used for programming the 1630 logic analyzers via HP-113 or HP-IL.
Appendix A contains all the possible display messages that may appear on the analyzer screen . An HP-113
overview is given in Appendix B for use as a reference for programming over the HP-113 . Appendices C, D, and
E explain using a printer, tape memory, or disc memory accessories with the logic analyzer .
ANALYZER DESCRIPTION
Logic analyzers perform trace measurements . The HP 1630A/D/G models are interactive state and timing
analyzers for use in the design and troubleshooting of microprocessor based systems . An analyzer traces
activity from several points during a period of system operating time . The analyzer may perform both state and
timing measurements together and interactively control the capture of information in each of these two
functions.
