Protocol

  • Vendor request is used to reset the engine and flush the buffers
  • Endpoint 2 is used for host-to-device command/parameters transfers
  • Endpoint 6 is used for device-to-host status/data transfers

X denotes "any value" in the following description

Vendor requests

  • bRequest=0xB3, wValue=X, wIndex=X, wLength=0x0A, data={ 0x0F, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, X, X, X, X, X, X } - restart the engine (reset FPGA, reset FIFOs)
  • bRequest=0xD0, wValue=X, wIndex=X, wLength=0x00 - disable communication (set FIFO reset), not used
  • bRequest=0xD1, wValue=X, wIndex=X, wLength=0x00 - enable communication (clear FIFO reset), not used

dword Flags - trigger types selection:
  bit 4:0 - edge trigger signal, 0-31 -> A0-B15
  bit 6:5 - edge to trigger on:
    00 - rise
    01 - fall
    10 - rise or fall

dword RangeMin - min value for data range trigger (see Flags[9:8]), must be masked with RangeMask (see Masking below)

dword RangeMax - max value for data range trigger (see Flags[9:8]), must be masked with RangeMask

Active bits are combined to a single value WITHOUT GAPS: mask=01000011, value=11 01000 1 -> masked_value=000001 0 1 (bits 6,1,0 are combined and zero-extended)

Acquisition session flow

  • Send restart vendor request (0xB3)
  • Send { 0x1A, 0x2B } type packet to configure and start capture
  • Poll with { 0x3A, 0x4B } until CaptureStatus=2 (optionally blink bus indicators according to CurrentDataValue during poll)
  • Get capture data with { 0x5A, 0x6B }

Hardware features support status

  • Buffered mode acquisition
  • Sample depth selection
  • Pretrigger depth selection
  • Internal clocking (timing mode)
  • External clocking (state mode) with edge (rising/falling/both) and clock channel (ACLK/BCLK) selection
  • Logic voltage threshold selection (independent for Axx and Bxx channel groups, possible to analyze dual standard circuits)
  • Unconditional trigger
  • Trigger on signal edge (rising/falling/any)
  • Trigger on bus pattern match

  • Trigger on bus pattern condition (match/within/out of range) repeating for N consecutive samples where N is equal/within range/out of range
  • Trigger on bus pattern condition at specific signal edge
  • Trigger on any of the above conditions combined with pattern match on the previous/current/next sample
  • Use two trigger units in AND/OR combination
