ScanaPLUS - 9 Channels, 100MHz Logic Analyzer
ScanaPLUS is a robust, versatile and multi-application 9 Channels logic analyzer. It relies on the free ScanaStudio software to capture and analyze logic signals. This logic analyzer will capture signals at a steady rate of 100 MSPS (Million Samples Per Seconds), whether you’re using 1 or all 9 channels. No compromises. Thanks to its configurable and fully protected input stage, ScanaPLUS can be directly connected to RS232, to CAN or RS485 differential lines, or to tiny 1.2V logic signals! Plus, a logic analyzer with 9 channels, will allow you to work with 8-bit buses, having a 9th channel left for a synchronization signal. Worry no more about maximum capture time or transfer speed from device to computer. ScanaPLUS relies on a proprietary FPGA based compression and streaming algorithm, that will capture signals for as long as your computer can take! Device main features: 100 MHz 100 G Samples 9 Channels Rich decoders library 1.2V to 5V logic levels Differential channels RS232 & LIN receivers ±50V input protection Multi-step trigger

Care for details
We’ve selected the finest hook probes for you. At Ikalogic, we are electronics engineers after all and we know how much it is important to have good quality probes when attempting to debug a digital electronic circuit. That’s why we provide with each ScanaPLUS device 10 Ultra fine, USA made, E-Z hook probes. They are all color coded to match the cables and the software interface. This way, you can know which channel is connected to what in a glance. Integrated CAN, LIN, RS232 and RS485 receivers! With ScanaPLUS logic analyzer, you don’t neet to worry about converting differential signals to TTL signals. It has got 2 differential bus receivers ready to sniff any CAN or RS485 communication. Additionally, it can be connected to 5 RS232 or LIN lines. Thanks to the broad input range, more protocol and signaling levels can be added via software updates. ScanaPLUS adapts to your logic signals levels. ScanaPLUS will allow you to capture logic transition whose logic levels are as low as 1.2v and all the way up to 5V logic levels. While configuring the exact threshold voltage is not critical for most application, it will give you much better accuracy when measuring high frequency signals (above 1MHz). Do you need to capture 1.8 v signals on some pins, while capturing 5V signals on others? No problem, with ScanaPLUS you can define 2 different logic thresholds for two groups of inputs! Activity indicator LED Thats a detail that can save a big deal of time. If you ever see flat lines on the screen instead of the signals you’re expecting, you may wonder if the problem is with your source code, or the trigger configuration. Sometimes you are just wondering: “is there any activity on the lines at all?” ScanaPLUS’ software independent activity LED will answer your questions by blinking whenever any activity is detected on the logic analyzer lines.
ScanaPLUS Compared to other devices
Wondering what ScanaPLUS adds to what already exists on the market? With ScanaPLUS, you can directly connect to many types of industrial & automobile buses (RS485, CAN, LIN, RS232). No other logic analyzer we are aware of has this much flexibility when it comes to its inputs configuration. Most (if not all) logic analyzer devices that stream data over the USB suffers from USB bandwidth limitations which is somewhere around 20MB/s. ScanaPLUS don’t. We have worked for more than a year to develop a compression algorithm that will compress and stream the sampled signals over USB. ScanaPLUS only takes about 2 or 3 Mbytes of USB bandwidth in normal usage. Many competitors logic analyzer devices will allow you to set the logic threshold on all channels. ScanaPLUS allow you to configure two different logic thresholds on two different channels. If you want optimal precision over different signal voltages, ScanaPLUS is your choice. ScanaPLUS relies on ScanaStudio V2.0 (and above). That’s by far one of the most fluid, intuitive and lag free logic analyzer software you will find around. Using your logic analyzer with such a smooth software is a real productivity booster. The activity led on the housing that will blink when there is logic change on any channel is real time saver.
