Total Phase's Beagle™ USB 5000 v2 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer Featuring the Cypress EZ-USB® FX3™ Solution has Record-Breaking Sales

Consumer Electronics Show, Las Vegas, NV – Tuesday, January 8, 2013 – Total Phase, a provider of industry-leading USB, I2C, SPI, and CAN embedded systems tools, released their new series of Beagle™ USB 5000 v2 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzers back in September 2012. Since the release, the Beagle USB 5000 v2 analyzer series has had back-to-back record breaking sales figures. These new models build on the reliable technology seen in the original Beagle analyzers, adding advanced features such as SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) downlink and multi-analyzer synchronization to allow engineers to access their captured data with unparalleled precision and speed.

"SuperSpeed USB adoption has dramatically increased, as evidenced by many new PC and CE devices entering the market - The introduction of the USB 3.0 analysis port on Total Phase's Beagle USB 5000 v2 analyzer, demonstrates SuperSpeed USB functionality provides value to the test and measurement industry," said Jeff Ravencraft, Chairman, USB-IF. "Release of this device is not only an indication of the increasing adoption rate of SuperSpeed USB technology, but is also evidence that developers have embraced SuperSpeed USB and are using it for viewing and analyzing large volumes of data."

To enable the USB 3.0 downlink, Total Phase has incorporated the Cypress EZ-USB® FX3™ chip. "The Beagle USB 5000 v2 analyzer exemplifies the advantages of Cypress's FX3 controller," said Mark Fu, Senior Marketing Director at Cypress Semiconductor. "FX3 allows developers to easily implement USB 3.0 into their system, which Total Phase has accomplished with its SuperSpeed USB downlink port on the Beagle USB 5000 v2 analyzer. We partnered with Total Phase throughout the development process in order to bring SuperSpeed USB to a wider population of developers, and we're excited to see the new products hit the market."

"Over the last few months since the release of our Beagle USB 5000 v2 series of protocol analyzers, the first analyzers in the world with a SuperSpeed USB downlink, we have seen tremendous growth for this product. Developers increasingly appear to be taking advantage of the unprecedented speed and access to USB 3.0 data offered by our analyzer," said Derek Fung, VP Business at Total Phase. "The Beagle USB 5000 v2 protocol analyzer enhances the engineer's experience with USB 3.0 analysis, providing an advanced feature set at a very affordable price."
