IBTracer BusEngine
CATC’s BusEngine™ Technology is at the heart of the new IBTracer 4X
Analyzer. The revolutionary BusEngine core uses state-of-the-art Field
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology and incorporates both the
real-time recording engine and the configurable building blocks that
implement data/state/error detection, triggering, capture filtering, external
signal monitoring and event counting and sequencing. Like the
flash-memory-based firmware that controls its operation, all BusEngine
logic is fully field upgradeable, using configuration files that can be
downloaded from the CATC website.
