Saleae Logic Analyser Has Arrived

I’ve been considering getting one of these for a while and it finally arrived today. First impressions, well packed sturdy and smaller than I thought it would be. The software installed without a hitch. Powered up and connected to the Netduino to check it works.

A little test program:

OutputPort output = new OutputPort(Pins.GPIO_PIN_D0, false);
SerialPort com2 = new SerialPort(SerialPorts.COM2, 9600, Parity.None, 8, StopBits.One);

com2.Open();
while (true)
{
    output.Write(true);
    Thread.Sleep(10);
    output.Write(false);
    Thread.Sleep(10);
    com2.Write(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Hello, world"), 0, 12);
}

It took longer to write the test program than to install the software and hook up the analyser.

And some results:

Well, the first program everyone writes has to say “Hello, world” – well it does if you are an old C programmer anyway.
