Abstract

A test-and-measurement instrument is described. The test-and-measurement instrument can store a state machine. As the state machine is used to analyze a bit stream, breadcrumbs can be saved from states in a memory of the state machine. The breadcrumbs can then be used to analyze the operation of the state machine.
