Hi All,

It seems we spend quite a bit of time tracking down glitches on logic
signals. Once a glitch has been found that appears to be causing a
system to "hang-up", reset, or otherwise not perform as
expected......Now what?

All may not be as it appears and if not, a great deal of engineering
time can be wasted. The Technical Tidbit article this month at
www.dsmith.org discusses glitches that appear in scope waveforms that
can lead an engineer or technician on a "wild goose chase" away from
potential real problems.

The article is located near the bottom of the home page. Just click on
the scope screen picture to read the article.
