MagniVu timing resolution within each acquisition means you can measure
digital signal timing on increasingly faster signals with confidence. With
MagniVu timing resolution, find difficult problems such as digital logic
errors, glitches, setup/hold violations, and crosstalk quickly. Use setup/hold
violation triggering and display to validate setup/hold performance of digital
devices.
