The Sparkfun USB Logic Analyzer is a versatile 8-channel tool, capable of sampling rates of up to 24MHz. It's an essential addition to any toolbox or workbench, designed to diagnose communication issues swiftly and economically. Whether you're dealing with a misbehaving I
2C bus, a mysterious UART baud rate, or reverse engineering an SPI protocol, this logic analyzer is up to the task.
The USB Logic Analyzer is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V systems, supporting a maximum voltage of 5.25V and a minimum of 2.0V on a high logic-level. It's powered by an included USB-C cable and works seamlessly with PulseView — a cross-platform, open-source signal analysis software suite.
The Logic Analyzer comes with Female-To-Female jumper wires. For those using an Uno or a board with female headers, it's recommended to acquire some Male-To-Male jumpers for connecting the analyzer to the headers.
Please note, some units have a GND connection adjacent to input six that isn't a ground, but appears to be some sort of clock signal. It's advised not to use this pin.
Included with the purchase of the Logic Analyzer are a 10-conductor Female-to-Male Jumper Wires and a USB Type C Cable.
The Logic Analyzer is packed with features. It has 8 channels, a sampling rate configurable down to 20kHz, and input impedance > 100kΩ, 5pF. It's powered by a USB supply and has a USB Type C Connector. It supports the open-source sigrok logic analyzer software and is compatible across platforms: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android, etc. The dimensions of the Logic Analyzer are 54.7 x 27.4 x 14.1 mm.
The latest revision of the USB Logic Analyzer has replaced the USB Mini B connector with a more up-to-date USB Type C connector.
