Jawi made excellent strides with the cross-platform client for the Logic Sniffer. Last week v0.96 beta 3 was released. The latest release features an improved UI, as well as dual/quad mode SPI decoding. Most of the UI repainting bugs should be squatted by now (at least the most annoying ones ;)), and some small improvements […]

Another Logic Sniffer ground mod
Here is a mod to add ground to unused Logic Sniffer probes, like the one built by Tarloth. He grounded the top row of a dual-row female header, and soldered the bottom row to his Open Bench Logic Sniffer. This allowed him to both improve signal integrity, and be able to mate his OBLS with […]

Logic Sniffer hack improves signal integrity
Tarloth designed this cool hack to improve signal integrity of the Open Bench Logic Sniffer. Instead of using the standard 1×18 pinheader, he used a dual row 2×18 header. One row is connected to the board, while the other is connected to GND. Unused signal pins are jumpered to GND using the extra header row. […]
Logic Sniffer: Bluetooth wireless connection
There’s an interesting discussion in the forums about enabling the Open Bench Logic Sniffer to work with Bluetooth. The consumer market is being flooded with cheap Android enabled tablets, and it seems like a good idea to use them with the OBLS to make a portable logic analyzer. Pppd is currently working with a BT […]
