Building a Logic Analyzer Using FPGA

Building a Logic Analyzer Using FPGA

Previously, we introduced how to create a logic analyzer and oscilloscope using RP2040. Today, we will build a logic analyzer using FPGA. Currently, the mainstream architecture of logic analyzers in China is based on FPGA + USB PHY. The combination of the advantages of FPGA and the high accessibility of USB has kept it in … Read more

Open Source Logic Analyzer – DSLogic

Open Source Logic Analyzer - DSLogic

Whether you are developing microcontrollers or FPGAs, a protocol analysis tool – the logic analyzer, is often used. Unlike oscilloscopes, it can only collect digital signals, with sampling rates typically ranging from hundreds of MHz to GHz, supporting multiple channels for simultaneous sampling. The accompanying software supports parsing dozens of protocols such as I2C, UART, … Read more
