Teledyne LeCroy WaveSurfer 3000 digital oscilloscope expanded multi-instrument capabilities

Teledyne LeCroy has introduced additional multi-instrument capabilities to enhance the debug capabilities of the WaveSurfer 3000 oscilloscope.

Protocol analysis capabilities with CAN and LIN trigger and decode enable users to gain further insight into their systems, correlating physical layer signals and protocol layer data on a single display. The CAN and LIN trigger can isolate frame IDs, specific data packets, remote frames and error frames. The decodes use a colour-coded overlay that clearly identifies different parts of the data being captured, allowing the user to quickly identify different parts of the CAN and LIN data such as frame IDs, status bits and message data.

Generating arbitrary waveforms is critical for complete design debug and validation. With added capabilities in the built-in WaveSource function generator, arbitrary waveforms can be generated by loading .csv files saved from an oscilloscope or offline waveform creation software. The waveforms can then be controlled, manipulated and output directly from the oscilloscope for use in closed-loop circuit analysis.

Measuring and monitoring voltage levels is easy with the product’s digital voltmeter capability. The feature provides real-time measurements that can be viewed on the screen at all times, even when the oscilloscope is not triggering. A dedicated DVM user interface, offered as a free download, is available for set-up and more measurement details.
