Traditional timing samples and stores data at regular intervals.
Transitional timing samples data at regular intervals but stores a sample
only when there has been a transition on one or more of the channels. This
makes it possible for Transitional timing to store more information in the
same amount of memory.
Glitch Acquisition Mode. A glitch is defined as any transition that
crosses the logic threshold more than once between samples. It can be
caused by capacitive coupling between traces, power supply ripple, or a
number of other events. The glitch, in turn, can cause major problems in
your system.
Your logic analyzer has the capability of triggering on a glitch and
capturing all the data that occurred before it. The glitch must have a width
of at least 5 ns at threshold in order for the analyzer to detect it.
If you want your timing analyzer to trigger on a glitch in the data, set
the Acquisition mode to Glitch. This causes several changes in the
analyzer. One change is that a field for glitch detection in each label is
added to the Timing Trace Specification menu, as shown:
