Setting up the
Agilent Technologies 16700
Series Logic Analysis System
Take a Measurement with the ILA
Triggered From an External
Analyzer
We are going to use a simple 32-bit
binary counter to demonstrate the
ease of setting up and taking a meas-
urement using both the Agilent
Technologies and Xilinx logic analyz-
ers. The counter is probed internally
using the Xilinx ChipScope ILA and
externally with an Agilent 16752A
analysis module installed in a 16700
Series mainframe. We generated a 34-
bit analyzer using the tools on the
Xilinx website at www.xilinx.com to
directly probe the counter registers.
We will probe the same counter at the
chip I/O using an Agilent 16752A
logic analysis module in state mode.
The basic system setup used for this
example and any other type of com-
bined measurement is shown in
Figure 2. This diagram indicates the
type of connections necessary
between the different equipment to
achieve a correlated display.

We will set up an Agilent 16700 to
drive its external port out when the
trigger condition is met. We do this
from the main system window. Select
the “Port Out” button to bring up its
setup window (Figure 3). The port
will be unselected and will not drive
after system startup. We are select-
ing the analyzer in slot A as the arm-
ing analyzer for this example. You
could use any of the Agilent logic
analysis modules plugged into a
16700 Series mainframe for this pur-
pose. We enable the port as "Pulsed"
so that the output is only high for
awhile after trigger, but not prior to
trigger.
