M1™ Oscilloscope Tools™ Features

M1™ Oscilloscope Tools™ has more features than any other jitter and timing analysis software package. M1 offers more than just a way to take measurements from the scope; M1 offers sophisticated tools that let you:

AutoMeasure™	Easily set up your measurements on startup based on the signals attached to your scope using AutoMeasure™.
Measurements	Select the correct measurement for your purpose.
Record/Playback	Detect & isolate rare events using Record/Playback, so you can spot statistical trends quickly.
Client/Server	Acquire data from a remote scope that is also running M1.
Automation	Use a TestScript™ to define a test algorithm that is the same for all real-time scopes.
ScriptBuilder™	Graphically define a TestScript™ in minutes using familiar M1 controls in ScriptBuilder™ mode, without having to do any programming.
Characterization	Revolutionize your whole testing procedure with Characterization Manager™.
Reporting	Go from measurements to a complete report in seconds with one-click reporting.
Exception Detection	Find elusive malfunctions with RunUntil by triggering on measurement statistics.
Multi-Acquisition	Analyze data across hours or days of acquisitions in Multi-Acquisition (MAQ) Mode.
LogicView™	Do your bus timing analysis more quickly using our 32-Channel LogicView™.
Triggering	Measure exactly the conditions of interest, such as the setup/hold on read cycle only, using the Pattern/Serial Trigger.
DDj vs. Bit View	Find data-dependent jitter using the DDj vs. Bit view.
FFTView™	Identify spectral sources that cause logic timing errors with FFTView™.
RjDj Decomposition	Use our proven RjDj Decomposition that has been validated to 5% on ~300,000 jitter cases, and see the results in RjDjView .
Differential Thresholding	Find cycle-to-cycle variations with true Differential Thresholding.
RjDjView	Measure RjDj on clocks and/or relative to explicit external clocks.
Virtual Deep Memory™	Extend the usefulness of the physical acquisition memory that you currently have in your oscilloscopes with M1 Virtual Deep Memory™.
Animation	Make post-analysis feel like live-analysis.
Unnattended Fault Detection	Let M1 find your problems for you while you are busy elsewhere.
Hidden Anomaly Locator™	Analyze your signals for possible problems automatically.

You can also...

Understand your DUT completely using cycle-to-cycle debug.
Easily correlate events in all views by locking the X axes and using our ScopeTrack™ capability.
Quickly spot symptoms and trace their cause using tracking markers.
Isolate repetitive jitter in clocks with Repetition Interval Analysis.
Improve timing accuracy of your scope with Industry-leading precision.

We think that M1 compares very favorably with any other jitter and timing analysis software that is available, and also offers capabilities that no other software in its class has. We have a table to help you compare M1’s features to other software.

The key, though, is whether you can use M1 Oscilloscope Tools with your scope or not. M1 will run internally on a scope that has Windows 2000 or Windows XP as its operating system, or M1 can run on an external PC that is connected to the scope through either a USB or GPIB port. We have a list of scopes that we are compatible with.
