Overview

This Soldered Logic Analyzer is a compact 8-channel USB-based tool designed for debugging serial protocols and digital logic circuits. It connects via a standard USB port and allows engineers to capture, visualize, and analyze signals from microcontrollers and digital sensors in real-time.

Why Choose This Part

The device provides a cost-effective alternative to benchtop oscilloscopes for digital-only troubleshooting. Its small form factor and USB-powered operation make it an ideal portable solution for field testing and rapid prototyping.

Applications

Serial Protocol Decoding
Sniffing and decoding I2C, SPI, UART, and 1-Wire communications to troubleshoot bus contention or timing errors.
Embedded Software Debugging
Monitoring GPIO state changes to verify interrupt service routine timing and program execution flow.
Signal Timing Analysis
Measuring pulse widths, clock frequencies, and duty cycles of PWM signals or external clock sources.

Getting Started

Connect the device to a PC using a USB cable and interface it with the target circuit using the included jumper wires. It is compatible with open-source software like PulseView (sigrok), which supports automated decoding for dozens of digital protocols.
