This allows users to see upper-level mapped protocol events within the trace eliminating the tedious process of manually decoding device specific commands. From Mass Storage Class to Communication Device Class (CDC), the Mercury T2 provides the most complete decoding of USB device transactions.

The Mobile T2 leads the industry in affordability with comprehensive USB 2.0 test and analysis features. Starting at $875, the Mercury T2 can be used virtually anywhere, extending beyond the lab environment over to the personal workstations of USB developers. Every engineer within a design team (hardware, software, and firmware) will appreciate the benefit of having a personal analyzer to fit their individual needs.

Featuring the industry-leading CATC Trace expert analysis software, the Mercury T2 system provides an easy-to-use display that graphically decodes logical protocol events. With the Standard or Advanced edition, all protocol levels can be expanded to show the underlying transactions and packets.

• CATC Trace Analysis Software - Faster interpretation and debug of USB traffic
• Portable and Convenient - Bus Powered analyzer works with any Windows-based PC
• AutoDetect USB 2.0 Speeds - Automatically detects low, full, and high speed connections
• OTG (On-The-Go) Support - Record and analyze HNP & SRP, including the capture of VBus and Data line pulses
• 256 MByte Recording Capacity – Extend capture windows further with filtering and real time data truncation
• Spool-to-Disk Mode - Record for hours or even days with spool-to-disk capture
• Non-intrusive High Impedance Probe - Preserves real-world signal and timing conditions for device under test
• Advanced Triggering - Isolates important traffic, specific errors or data patterns
• Extensive Decodes - Mass Storage, Bluetooth HCI, Hub, PTP/Still Image, Printer, Human Interface Devices (HID), Audio and Communication
• Real-Time Statistics - View bus traffic as it occurs even if a Trace is not being recorded
• Hardware Filtering - Automatically exclude non-essential and redundant packets from the trace
• Intelligent Reporting - Quickly identify and track error rates, abnormal bus or timing conditions
• Sophisticated Viewing – provides complete Packet, Transaction and Transfer layer views of USB protocol

Completely passive in design, the Mercury T2 preserves real-world signaling and provides 100% faithful representation of traffic on the bus. Featuring a high-impedance, non-intrusive probe, the Mercury acts strictly as a "sniffer" and does not re-time or affect signal amplitude between the host and device. 256MB of physical data recording memory can be extended with filtering and data truncation.

Isolating specific protocol events with real time triggering is essential to capture intermittent problems. The Mercury T2 provides sophisticated triggering with drag-and-drop selections for PID type, data patterns, standard requests, errors, and bus events. The Mercury provides 14 protocol error triggers with auto-detection of several additional post-capture errors. The ability to trigger & pinpoint specific bus conditions as they occur saves time during testing and debug.

The CATC trace software includes a persistent timing display that provides one-click measurements between events. The bandwidth calculator provides full bus utilization metrics for any range of packets.

Teledyne LeCroy's USB software provides many mechanisms to measure and report on USB traffic. The Bus Utilization graphs data, packet length, and bus usage by device. Using the Traffic Summary window, users can evaluate statistical reports at a glance or navigate to individual packets.

Powerful search and reporting options allow users to quickly navigate to specific packets, errors and any data type within a trace file. The CATC Trace also supports filter and hide commands, to remove irrelevant data from the Trace for efficient viewing.
