2.3 Universal Protocol Analyzer System (UPAS)
The Universal Protocol Analyzer System (UPAS) is a base unit for Teledyne LeCroy
protocol Analyzer modules. The UPAS contains the recording memory and other
resources used by all Teledyne LeCroy Analyzer modules. At the back of the UPAS is a
hi-speed USB port for transferring CATC Trace data to a host machine.
• UPAS 10K: Supports the PETracer ML™.
2.4 Protocol Analyzer Modules
PETracer ML hardware modules plug into Teledyne LeCroy’s Universal Protocol
Analyzer System (UPAS).
• PETracer ML: Multi-lane version of PETracer. It works with the UPAS 10K
and occupies both slots of the UPAS.
Analyzer modules use hardware triggering to capture real-time events and hardware
filtering to exclude unwanted data. Data is recorded into the Analyzer's buffer and then
transferred over a USB line to a host machine for display and analysis. Search and
display capabilities in the Analyzer software allow you to quickly locate specific data,
errors and other desired conditions.
An external DB-25 connector provides a path for externally supplied data or timing
information to be recorded along with link traffic.
