Abstract: The Digital Waveform Analyzer is a solid state highly portable device that approximates the operation of a cathode ray oscilloscope in time sweep mode by selectively lighting elements of a rectangular matrix of light emitting diodes. The LED array has its rows driven by a vertical circuit and its columns driven by a horizontal circuit. The vertical circuit converts the analog input signal to a "one-of-N" digital code. The converter utilizes an array of comparators and exclusive OR gates and does not require clocking. The horizontal circuit which corresponds to the sweep section of a standard cathode ray oscilloscope has a variable frequency clock generator, a binary counter, a decoder and synchronizing circuits.
