ABSTRACT:
A local area network timing analyzer responds to a signal on a local area network to generate a carrier detect signal which is indicative of the presence or absence of signaling activity on the local area network. The carrier detect signal alternates between two logic states indicative of packets and gaps between packets. The timing analyzer stores an array of timing entries, and individual ones of these timing entries are indicative of the time duration of individual gaps and packets. These timing entries are sorted and otherwise used to display timing information for the local area network.
