Do you know what it takes to start monitoring the communication between USB Type-C devices, as well as the VBUS and VCONN voltage? With the Total Phase USB Power Delivery Analyzer - download the software, connect the USB Power Delivery to your devices and take measurements. There are five easy steps shown in the video below:

I have a product with a Coldfire processor that is connected to a peripheral device via high-speed USB. The processor and the peripheral are on the same board and the USB lines are connected by copper traces. I want to monitor the USB traffic with our Beagle USB 480 Protocol Analyzer, but since the USB signal lines between the processor and peripheral device are in copper, I cannot insert the Beagle protocol in series. Instead, it looks like I have to tap into the USB signals in parallel. For signal integrity, I believe we need some series resistors, but I’m not sure what resistance values to use or where to use them.

The engineering world is experiencing tremendous progress and exponential growth thanks to the dedication of individuals with a passion for technology advancements.

I have created a program for a new flash device. Using the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter, this part has been debugged, tested and verified – it’s now ready for production. This is a special order for one customer – the volume we’ll need to produce is much smaller than usual.

Open source hardware (OSH) refers to physical objects with specially licensed design specifications that allow just about anyone to study, modify, copy, redistribute, and even sell the hardware. The hardware can generally encompass any range of objects, including phones, cars, robots, computers, musical instruments, and houses. These are all comprised of design files that could have been patented but are instead openly available for those who want to build upon and improve them, as explained on mouser.com.

When you download and start to install a device driver in Windows, you might see a warning that the driver is not signed and should not be installed.
