IKALOGIC SP259i (Industrial) 9 Channel, 250 MSPS Logic Analyzer and Protocol Decoder

IKALOGIC SP259i is a 9 channels, 250 MSPS logic analyzer and protocol decoder in industrial version (logic channels can be multiplexed with dedicated industrial inputs that can be directly connected to: 2 RS232 bus, 2 RS485 bus, 1 CAN bus and 1 LIN bus)

Top-notch specs, no compromise:

• 9 logic channels with adjustable thresholds (1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V 2.5V, 3.3V, 5V)
• State of the art input stage, with Schmitt triggers that eliminate glitches on slow signals
• 250 MHz sampling rate, with all 9 channels used, can be reduced by the user to 2.5 MHz
• External clock option (state mode), up to 62.5MHz
• Dedicated trigger-In and trigger-Out interfaces on SMA ports to synchronize with other instruments
• Samples compression and streaming via USB 3.0
• 1Gb HyperRAM memory buffers the data when USB isn’t fast enough
• Embedded receivers: RS232, CAN, LIN, RS485
• Guaranteed performances on all hosts

What’s in the box:
1x SP259i device
10x Leads hook probes set (premium quality, custom Ikalogic design)
1x Micro-USB 3.0 cable, 1m length
5x Pluggable terminal blocks, Wurth reference 691361100003 or equivalent

IKALOGIC SP259 series logic analyzers and protocol decoders offer in-depth analysis of logic signals and protocols with 250MHz (4ns) timing resolution. The 9-channel logic analyzer allows 8-bit parallel data to be captured along with a clock or strobe signal.

IKALOGIC SP259 series logic analyzers rely on ScanaStudio software (runs Windows, Mac and Linux) to capture, display, analyze and decode signals. Most industry-standard protocols can be interpreted, among which: SPI, I²C, USART, 1-Wire, CAN, LIN, I²C, RS232, RS485, TWI and many more (click here for the latest list of supported protocol decoders).

(1) Logic signals digital bandwidth is measured with the supplied 9 probes wire harness.

Powerful trigger options:

• Edge trigger
• Logic change on one or various channels
• Trigger on a sequence of timed logic signals
• Trigger on a protocol word or event (like serial word or I²C address acknowledge)
• External trigger input
• Trigger output
• Dual stage trigger (Ex: Edge trigger, then, Trigger on I²C address)

Typical applications:
Designed for performance, SP259 series logic analyzers offer the possibility to capture and analyze 9 channels of logic signals and industrial buses at a rate of 250MHz. This is perfectly adapted for demanding applications, where it is needed to capture logic signals with maximum resolution of 4ns on all 9 channels.

• Embedded systems development and debugging
• Research and educational
• Serial protocols analysis, like I²C, SPI, UART or 1-Wire (non exhaustive list)
• Industrial bus analysis: RS232, RS485, CAN, LIN
• ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital to Analog Converts) diagnostic
• IoT systems designing
• Reverse engineering

Benefits:

• Capture very long sequences of logic signals (up to 2 Tera samples)
• ScanaStudio Software lets you view decoded signals in many different levels of abstractions (Packets or detailed bits and bytes)
• Target very specific events, thanks to a versatile multi-stage trigger system
• Device performance do not depend on USB connection bandwidth
• ScanaStudio Software running on Windows, macOS and Linux
• ScanaStudio Software is free, intuitive and very easy to use
• Synchronize captured samples with other lab instruments via Trigger IN and OUT ports
• Premium quality hook-style probes set
