Open-source Logic Analyzer gateware for various FPGA dev boards/replacement gateware for commercially available logic analyzers.
Github: https://github.com/ultraembedded/openlogicbit
A logic analyzer project which aims to provide reliable, high speed (100MHz+), large capture depth, open-source gateware that can be used on a FPGA development board you already own, or as replacement gateware for commercial logic analysers that do not work with open-source tools such as sigrok.
This project aims to support FPGA boards with 10's MBs of capture memory (such as DDR3), which also have high-speed USB interfaces from which to download the captured data.
There are a number of other open-source logic analyzer projects, but these mostly focus on using limited internal FPGA memories (embedded block RAMs), and low-performance host interfaces (UART).
- 16, 24, 32 input channels supported.
- Run-length encoded (RLE) compression to extend the sample buffer depth.
- Support for boards with large memories (DDR, SDRAM).
- Up to 32 triggers supporting edge, level, value match modes.
- Support for boards with FTDI sync FIFO mode support (FT232H, FT2232H).
- Support for external clock sources.
- Continuous or one-shot capture modes.
- libsigrok support available (enabling support for Sigrok, Pulseview).
