Ethernet 10/100/1000BASE-T Application Software — TDSET3 • SR-ENET • DPO4ENET
DPO4ENET triggering on a specific 10BASE-T MAC source address. A complete set of
triggers, including triggers for specific MAC address, MAC length/type, MAC client data,
IPv4 and TCP header content, TCP and IPv4 client data, and FCS errors, ensures you
quickly capture your event of interest.
DPO4ENET – 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX
Triggering and Analysis
Debugging Ethernet-based embedded systems designs provides some
complex measurement and analysis challenges:
Capturing specific Ethernet addresses and data
Displaying the elements of the Ethernet message in an understandable
format, in a variety of formats, for a wide variety of engineers and
technicians
Time-correlating Ethernet messages with analog and digital signals in
the embedded system
Capturing long time windows of Ethernet traffic and then finding specific
events within the acquired data
The DPO4ENET application module, installed in an MDO4000 or
MSO/DPO4000B Series oscilloscope, provides a robust set of tools for
debugging embedded systems with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet,
including:
Automated serial triggering, decode, and search for Ethernet 10BASE-T
and 100BASE-TX
Triggering on all the critical elements of an Ethernet 10BASE-T and
100BASE-TX such as address, data, etc.
Triggering on and decoding IPv4 internet protocol and TCP transport
protocol
Decoding all the critical elements of each message. No more counting
1s and 0s!
Searching through long acquisitions using user-defined criteria to find
specific messages
Event Table showing decoded serial bus activity in a tabular,
time-stamped format for quick summary of system activity
Color-coded DPO4ENET display of 100BASE-TX, showing preamble, MAC addresses,
IP header, TCP header components of the serial signal.
10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Triggering
Trigger on packet content such as start frame delimiter (SFD), MAC
addresses, MAC length/type, MAC client data, Q-tag control information,
IPv4 and TCP header, TCP and IPv4 client data, end-of-packet, and FCS
errors.
10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Decode
The DPO4ENET Ethernet Serial Application Module provides a higher-level,
combined view of the individual signals that make up the 10BASE-T or
100BASE-TX bus, making it easy to identify where packets begin and
end and identifying subpacket components such as preamble, SFD, MAC
addresses, data, FSC, errors, etc.
Are you wasting time manually decoding the waveform? Tired of having
to visually inspect the waveform to count clocks, determine if each bit
is a 1 or a 0, combine bits into bytes, and determine the hex value? Let
the MDO4000 or MSO/DPO4000B Series with a DPO4ENET Ethernet
Serial Application Module d o it for you! Once you’ve set up a 10BASE-T or
100BASE-TX bus, the MDO4000 or MSO/DPO4000B Series will decode
each packet on the bus, and display the value in hex, binary, or ASCII in
the bus waveform.
