[quote author="erdabyz"]SPI's clock is usually caled "SCK" instead of "TCK".
Veeery nice work, I'll see if I can find any quality plastic sticker and print it on it, and stick it to the back of my BP. It'll provide short-circuit protection and at the same time I won't lose it.
Thanks![/quote] Updated to reflect the proper signal names.
[quote author="Sjaak"][quote author="adamoutler"]Actually, that pinout was the reason I decided to make a new one... Brown=Tan Orange=Pink/Peach [/quote]
We didn't release many updates for the BusPirate lately but changing the colorscheme was on the todo-list. I expect a release in a couple weeks after some usb testing.[/quote] no need to change the color scheme.. just the labels on the documentation :-)
BTW you should state somewhere on sticker it is for the seeed cable. Sparkfun also carries a probe which uses a different pinout.[/quote] Actually, that pinout was the reason I decided to make a new one... Brown=Tan Orange=Pink/Peach
I'll add the note about it being a SeeedStudios cable. good Idea.
The picture on the front page is the first revision of the case sticker and has errors.
erdabyz: That's what I did.. I made a case for mine out of 3 layers of plexiglass which is rubber cemented to the board. On the top of the board sandwiched between two pieces of plexi I have the "official" sticker from the wiki. That caused problems with locating proper wires. So now on the bottom side I have mine. I will probly put it on the top because it lines up with the wires nicely.
I don't know about that. What if I'm trying to capture a UART bootlog? In order to get the information from boot on my phone I must capture a very blank UART log. It takes 45seconds to complete and its got alot of dead space.
There is no such way to increase the memory by a factor of 800x is there? 24k is kinda small for troubleshooting a complex device. I'd like something more. If the next device has a meg of memory on-board, I'd buy it in a heartbeat for an extra $20.

Why do I want demon core?
- fewer bugs - more features - it's the core being currently worked on so afaik all new features will appear there and not in the old sump core[/quote] Why refer to it as demon core? Just say upgrade to 3.06. there's how many versions of demon core now? Referring to it as demon core and pointing to that thread sounds like you're recommending to use some guy's random firmware in development.... Not the latest version which is what the new systems are built upon.
[quote author="arhi"]You want to use demon core on your OBLS so you really want to read the viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1711 thread (not short, sorry)

YOU TRY TO CONFUSE!!! lol

Demon Core (v3) Bitstreams v3+ are based on a port of the SUMP VHDL to the Verilog language, codename Demon Core. Forum member dogsbody did the port, and also added all the features of a professional logic analyzer.
Client support and development on this core continues.
I was having the same problem until I upgraded to the newest firmware. I just received my unit on Friday and it was a few versions out of date. From what I'm hearing, the Demon something is the best. viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1915

Page 2..... mind blown....
Any chance of a skinny or just tell me why I want demon core? it looks like alot of research has been done and I'm working on a (REALLY not short, sorry) thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthr ... ?t=1018862 along with 6 others dealing with similar topics... I don't want to learn all there is to know about this device... It's a tool which will spend 99.9% of it's life in my electronics toolbox and come out to monitor digital signals.
when you say I want demon core... I just spent 20 hours troubleshooting this hardware this weekend. I finally got it working and I have not had a chance to really use it since I got it on Friday. Why do I want demon core?
I have not looked at the schematics. The Ring buffer sounds like a great idea.
Would be easy to simply use the update button (GPIO?) to initiate an all-zeros routine... right now, my only option is to wait a few seconds after capture and then disconnect ground to get some static. Seems pretty unelegant to have to generate an unclean signal to stop recording.
Ah.. I understand. Thank you for answering that question. So, since I do not plan on using the unbuffered lines, I will solder the ground across the non-buffered groups 2 and 3 to extend my RLE time by just enabling those channels.
Is there a way to trigger send USB data? It would be nice to have the unit send the captured data and then a bunch of zeros when the update button is pressed during capture or something. Like, when capturing UART data. It is not continuous and I may have to wait the entire 17 hours for it to finish.
I also have another question about RLE. It was not mentioned in the guide.... At 200mhz, I can get about 900ms of data on a single channel. But, at 100mhz, it drops severely. This seems counter-intuitive. Why is that?
I am trying to figure out a way to establish communications with the Call Processor in my mobile phone through the SIM card. I need to watch the entire boot up sequence and it would be nice to have timestamps throughout the entire thing. I want to watch 2 minutes of data on 6 pins.
Is this for real? 18 hours of data logging when using all four groups? Do I simply ground and enable all 4 groups? Why does 3 groups have no data by the max duration? Is there a way to get RLE to stop or does time have to elapse?
Hey, I was looking at the bus pirate reference cards and I found that most of the ones on the wiki were out of date or had wrong color codes.
So I made a new one with these features
Easy to read
Compatible with SeeedStudios' cable
Shows which modes all pins are active
Has high visibility of color codes
Includes pin numbers and signal names
Here's a sample image png:http://the-bus-pirate.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/documents/V3/ImprovedBusPirateRef.png The downlod contains a PDF for printing in high quality, and an XLS file ( you can modify it with this). I used LibreOffice to make this, so Microsoft Office will look different. The proper printing size of the PDF is: 42% for sticker which covers the back, 38% for paper with clear tape over the top
Please review for accuracy. Use this as you wish, no copyrights, I made it for myself. I'll make any changes required. Let me know if there's anything I should add.
