Hello!
I was wondering if there is any chance that you could add “Trigger out” function (to 10MHz Ref In/Out for instance) to internal FPGA code.
It function would be to generate trigger out signal when SA is set to trigger on a Video trigger..Purpose of that functionality is to enable cross trigger of external scope /logic analyser to a RF burst to achieve same or similar functionality like Tek MDO4000 scopes.
It would be a great enhancement to your product and would make it immensely more powerful and useful in troubleshooting todays mixed digital /RF communication products.Thanks and best regards!

Sinisa,
We do not have any plans to add this to the BB60C, although I can definitely see the use cases. I may propose adding Video Trigger Out to our SM200A, which has a much bigger FPGA and more I/O resources.In many cases, you can use the Trigger In for tests of this nature. For example, if your scope or signal source can provide a trigger, this could be sent to the BB60C trigger in.
Hopefully this helps.
Sinisa,
Thank you for your reply. I guess to clarify my answer, the BB60C’s FPGA unfortunately cannot be upgraded in the field. An FPGA update would be a logistical challenge. Even though I think it would be a powerful addition, I think it will have to wait until the next generation.
The SM200A is a product that is actively being developed. And its FPGA is field upgradeable. It is probably practical to add the feature here, even though I realize it won’t help you.Best Regards,
Justin
