Using Data Center Configuration Management to Customize Configuration Descriptors for Captured USB Devices

Q: Your Beagle USB 480 Protocol Analyzer works really great for us. I'm starting a new project - what software tool do you recommend to specify configuration descriptors for captured USB devices?

Thanks for your question! The Configuration Management feature in our Data Center Software tool allows specifying the descriptors for a captured devi...

Support Question of the Week: Selecting the SPI Host Adapter for High Bit Rate Constant Audio Streaming

Q: I have an application that requires constant audio streaming at a high bit rate. I need a host adapter to send 524,288 bits approximately every 0.6 seconds. Would this work with the Cheetah SPI Host Adapter? The Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter has been perfect with other applications, but due to pauses between bytes, it looks like something fa...

Support Question the of Week: Send and Monitor CAN Interface Channels with Komodo Interface

Q: I'm looking to use two Komodo Duo Interfaces to send and monitor CAN data on two separate computers, and I'd like to use Komodo GUI software to send data and Data Center Software to monitor the data over CAN interface channels. Can you recommend how to set this up?

Thanks for your question! In the following example, two computers are used wit...

Support Question of the Week: Translate Signal Levels for an Embedded I2C Device and a Beagle Protocol Analyzer

Q: I'm using the Beagle I2C/SPI Protocol Analyzer to analyze the bus traffic of an embedded I2C device that runs on 1.2V. It looks like I can use the Level Shifter Board - do I need to power the target I2C with the Beagle analyzer or can I use an external 1.2V power supply? Also, do I need to add pull-up resistors for the Beagle I2C/SPI Prot...

Support Question of the Week: Optimize Communication with an Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter and a Slave Device

Q: I am using the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter while testing slave devices. I enable the I2C or SPI slave and start receiving messages. After I disable the slave device, I receive the status code AA_COMMUNICATION_ERROR. It seems I cannot disable the slave device - can you advise how to remedy this?

Thanks for your question! The status co...

Support Question of the Week: Control Target Power from an SPI Host Adapter to a Target Device

I am programming memory chips and I am providing power to the target device from a separate power supply. I will not be using USB power because the memory chips use 3.3V. I have a voltage regulator installed before the chip power pins, which seems to interfere with using the Cheetah SPI Host Adapter.

My question - do I need to isolate Cheetah ad...
