The Philips PM3585/90 is a 90-channel logic analyzer engineered for digital signal analysis, debugging, and verification of digital circuits and systems. Its Dual Analysis Per Pin (DAPP) architecture enables simultaneous correlated state and timing analysis on each channel, allowing a single acquisition to capture both timing and state data without dual probing or repeated measurements.
