Keysight-Agilent 5006A

SIGNATURE ANALYZER

This Analyzer has high accuracy signature analyzer troubleshoots digital circuits for applications in production test and repair, depot repair, or field service.

The analyzer finds faults by tracing signal flow and measuring signatures (16-bit cyclic redundancy codes generated for blocks of data) that are compared to printouts or computer stored signatures.

Errors are quickly detected by comparing signatures, not entire bit streams.

The 5006A employs patented signature analysis technique to generate a compressed, four digit signature of a digital data stream at a logic node.
