Tektronix Logic Analyzers
TLA700 Series Mainframes
Breakthrough Solutions for Real-time
Digital Systems Analysis
The TLA715 and TLA721 mainframes are
card modular mainframes that accept
TLA7Axx and TLA7Lx/Mx/Nx/Px/Qx logic
analyzer modules, as well as TLA7PG2
pattern generator modules. The TLA715
and TLA721 can be used in conjunction
with a TLA7XM expansion mainframe to
provide solutions for large numbers of buses
and high channel count requirements.
The TLA715 and TLA721 mainframes
are built on a Microsoft Windows 2000
Professional PC platform that offers a
familiar work environment. TLA applications
operate like any other PC application.
The TLA715 and TLA721 mainframes
come standard with dual display capability
for extended desktop viewing, in addition
to an internal CD-RW, hard disk and PC
card slots for expansion. A replaceable
hard disk is standard on both mainframes,
ideal for security or enabling individual
team members to store personal setups
and data. Trigger in/out connections provide
an interface to other external instrumentation,
such as TDS oscilloscopes, for correlating
measurement results.
