Yokogawa has added support for Peripheral Sensor Interface 5 (PSI5) bus analysis on its 8-channel DLM4000 and 2 and 4-channel DLM2000 oscilloscopes, which, the company claims, makes its oscilloscopes useful for automotive designers and engineers.
The Peripheral Sensor Interface 5 (PSI5) is a widely used open standard based interface for in-vehicle communications in the automotive industry and a key application area is in the control of Air Bags.
The company says its PSI5 analysis firmware option offers several trigger and protocol analysis features. The feature can trigger on sync pulses, start of frame or specific bit patterns, and up to 400,000 events can be stored.
