Which logic analyzer is best

Nov 12, 2003 4 Replies

I am in the market for a cheap logic analyzer. I can't figure out the main difference between an HP 1631D and 1651A. I think the 1631D has the 50MHz scope, and the 1651A has the floppy for setups,but other than that specs seem the same?? I want to play around with some DSP and micro's. I have a TDS210 (60MHz) scope, so the scaope is not a huge deal. Any other good analyzers in the $100-500 range

I have a 1631D. Specs same as the 1630 except for the addition of the 2 trace digital scope. You cannot save setups on the 1631D internally. It will require a separate HP floppy drive or a setup with a 488 bus card/cable and a separate computer (you will probably write the program).

If you wish to save the setups (labels, etc...) I'd recommend something that has internal storage. Don't know about the 1651A.

I love my Tek 1240... Especially as it is capable of 100MHz sampling / 50MHz state (I think the HP 163X are 25MHz, no ?).
