Introduction
About this Welcome to the new generation of HP logic ana@erS. The
book. . . HP 165OB/SlE logic analyrers have been desigued to be the easiest to
use logic aualyzers ever. In addition to beii easy to use, these logic
analyzxrs make a s&&ant contribution to digital measurement
texhology.
That's why we'd like you to invest your time going through this G&g
Started manual Whether you're a novice logic analyzer user or just new
to these particular models, this book will give you a working knowMge
of the HP 165OB/5lB so that you can start using it to solve your
measurement problems. It covers:
0 front panel orga&atior~
l how to operate the front panel;
l learuiug the basic menus;
l howtosetuptheh
l how to make basicmeasurements.
To make the book easier to use, we have put the names of keys
(FORMAT, SELECT etc.) in bold type. And we have highlighted
actions (rotate the knob, press the DISPLAY) in color.
If you are au experienced HP logic analyzer user but new to this family
of logic anal- you may feel like going directly to the reference
manual. We'd like you to reconsider and read chapters 1 through 4
first. These chapters will ouly take a few minutes and you will find the
user interface of the HI 165OB/5lB very friendly and easy to learn.
Don't worry...we didn't try to cover every feature and function of the
HI' 165OBElB logic analyzer in this manual That's the job of your
HP 165OB~5lB Front-Panel manual
If you're new to logic analysis...or just need a refresher, we think you'll
find FeeIing Comfortable W& Logic Ana&xrs valuable reading. It will
help you sort out any confusion you may have about their application
and show you how to get the most out of your new logic analyzer.

Introducing the HP1650B/HP 16518
What Are the The HP 165OB/SlB logic anal- are new general-purpose logic
HP 1650B and analyzers with improved features to accommodate next-generation
design tasks. They are basically the same as their predecessors the
HP 1651B? HP 165OA =d HP 165lA, but now have State Compare, State
Waveform, and State Chart modes. They both have HP-IB capabiIi&
in addition to RS-232C. Both the 80-chanuel HP 165OB and the
32-cbamel HP 165J.B logic ana&ers are capable of 100 MHz timing
analysis. TheHP1651Biscapableof25MHzstateanatysiswhitethc
HP MOB is capable of 35 MHz state analyh on all channels. The
HP 165lB, wbile oniy having 32 channels, has basically the same
features as the HP 1650B. That% why you have the same manual set
regardless of whether you have an HP 1650B or HP 16518.
The key features of the HP 165OB and HP 165l.B are:
l Transitional or glitch timing modes
l Simultaneous state/state or state/timing modes
0 lkdecp memory on all channels
l Glitch detection on all channels
0 Maker measurements
l Pattern, edge, and glitch triggering
0 Overlappii of timingwaveforms
0 Eight sequencelevek
l Eight pattern recognhrs
0 Onerangerecogniw
0 Small lightweight probing
l Time and number of states tagging
0 Pre-store
l State Compare
0 State Waveform
0 StateChart
Not all of these feahxes wilI be covered in this Getting Started manual.
However, you can find the details of these and all the features of the
HP 1650Bfl651B in the HP 165OBMP 165l.B Reference manuaL

Loading the Before you can operate the logic analyzr, it must transfer its operating
system from a disk to its memory. This is called "loading the opera@
Operating system" or `booting.
System
The logic analyzer operating system is a set of inslnx3ions that;contxol
the operation of the instrumea The operating system resides on a
35-inch flexible disk. You received two identical operating system
disks. You should mark one of them Master and store it in a safe place.

Getting to Know the Front Panel
Introduction The HP 165OB/5lB logic analyam have been designed to be very easy
to use. The controls are locatedlogically by function so you can learn
how to use them quickly and easily.
This chapter breaks down the front panel into these functionztl areas
and gives you an ovetiew of each area.
Front Panel The functtional areas of the front panel are: display, MENU, keypad,

CUrSOr The CURSOR is a movable indicator on the display that allows you to
access desired fields in each mtpla. It changes the field where it resides
from the normal white backgound to the dark backgromd (inverse
video). The KNOB moves the cursor to the field (function) you wish to
use. You aakate the field (fun&m) by pressing the SELECT key.

Numeric Entry There are many pop-up menus in whi& you eqter numeric data. The
Menus two major types are:
l Numeric entry with fixed units (ie. volts)
l Numeric entry with variable tits (ie. ms, p s, etc)
There are several numeric entry menus in which you only enter the
value, and the units are fixed. One such type of numeric entry pop-up is
the POD MoldPop-rip menu.
Besides being able to set the pod thresholds to either of the preset
thresholds (`ITL or ECL), you can set the thresholds to a specific
v&age from -9 9 V to + 9.9 V.
To set pod threshddsto a specific voltage, follow these steps:
1. Select either the TIMINGor STATE FORMAT
SPECIFICATION menll by pressing the FORMAT key. It doesn't
matter whether you are in the TIMINGor STATE FORMAT
SPEUFKATION menu.
2 Rotate the KNOB to place the cursor in the TTL field of any pod
displayed and press SELECT. Youwill now see a popup with the
choices, TIL, ECL,and User defined.

Pod Threshold (Exit)
You can enter your desired threshold with either of two methods when
the pod threshold popup is open. The first method is to rotate the
KNOB until your desired threshold is displayed- Rotating the KNOB
increments or decrements the value in smallinaements.
The second method is to use the keypad, which allows you to change
large values quickly. With the keypad follow these simple steps to enter
-5.0 V for the pod threshold:
4. Enter 5.0 from the keypad. You will see the 0.0 V replaced with 5.0.
