Patent ID: 11956139
Assignee: TELEDYNE LECROY, INC.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. An apparatus, comprising:
a circuit configured to:
receive, by a circuit, first data that from a component of a protocol analyzer, wherein the first data specifies content of packets encoded in an electrical signal sent over a communication channel between a first device and a second device and analyzed by the protocol analyzer;
receive, by the circuit, second data from a component of one or more than one oscilloscope, wherein the second data specifies waveform characteristics of the electrical signal sent over the communication channel between the first device and the second device and probed by the one or more than one oscilloscope, wherein the protocol analyzer is separate from the one or more than one oscilloscope;
trigger, by a component of the protocol analyzer, an event, wherein the event causes the oscilloscope to capture additional electrical signals or trigger; or
trigger, by a component of the one or more than one oscilloscope, an event, wherein the event causes the protocol analyzer to capture communication events around time of the event or trigger;
correlate, by the circuit, the electrical signal with the communication events; and
present, on a display device, a user interface configured to concurrently present the content of the communication events specified by the first data received from the protocol analyzer, and a graphical depiction of the waveform characteristics of the electrical signal specified by the second data received from the component of the one or more than one oscilloscope.
