Protocol analysis: efficiently debug serial buses Protocol aware triggering and decoding for serial buses Counting 1s and 0s to decode a serial bus is tedious and error-prone. The R&S®RTA4000 automates this process by decoding the waveforms into a specific protocol. In addi- tion, protocol aware triggering directly triggers on specific parts of a packet or frame. Segmented memory for long time captures Standard segmented memory is ideal for serial protocols. It allows you to capture only relevant packets/frames and ignore the long idle time in between packets. With 1 Gsample of segmented memory available, you can cap- ture more than 87 000 timestamped packets/frames. Table view of packets/frames A table view allows you to see a high-level representation of all captured packets. You can also export the table.
