18 Keysight E5400-Pro Series Soft Touch User’s Guide1 Overview, Installation, and Selection of Probing OptionsThe E5386A Half-channel Adapter (for use with the 16760A logic analyzer)The E5386A Half-channel Adapter is intended to be used with the Keysight16760A logic analyzer in half-channel state mode and supports theE5402A, E5405A, and E5406A probes.The E5386A Half-channel Adapter has its own ID code. When using theadapter, the 16760A logic analyzer recognizes its code rather than that ofthe probe which is attached to the target. Therefore, the user interfaceformat menu doesn't automatically set thresholds to the proper values.You need to go into the threshold menu and select (differential, custom, orstandard settings).When using the adapter in half-channel state mode:• Clock-bits are not available in half-channel state mode (although JCLKon the master is still used).• Be sure to connect Master pod 1 of the logic analyzer to the upper bits,8-15 + clk, on the half-channel adapter. This is necessary to connectthe clock in the system under test to the logic analyzer system clock.• Using the E5386A does not reduce the performance of the 16760Alogic analyzer and the soft touch probes.If the E5386A is used in full-channel state mode, the thresholds on theunused (odd) bits are floating. This could result in spurious activityindicators in the format menu.Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
