Hello,
I've been working from a couple of weeks on building a logic analyzer using an ATMEGA16 microcontroller.
my fist goal is to make a 4 channel, 1MHz sampling rate analyzer. Future development are on the way.
The connectivity to the PC would be via RS232 (or USB via a USB to RS232 cable)
The PC will have a Visual basic program to receive all data an draw it.
My goal is also to make the visual basic program capable of decoding UART, SPI, I2C, and CAN buses.
I have already solved the PC to ATMEGA16 connectivity problem. I have also found a *new* idea to auto-correct the timebase of the ATM EGA based on the RS232 clock..
I have successfully coded the inline ASSEMBLY codes for 1MHz sampling.
Sooner or later i should start on with the hardware implementation.
My question: are people here interested in such a project? I am planing to take lot of pictures during the building of the project, and make the software available for download with documentation. That will be a lot of work, and i'll be happy to do it, if i feel that it of some interest to you.
Is it?
I also hope there will some active participation and suggestions from fellow members, which is logical considered such a project/software will be interesting for the electronics and robotics community.
Waiting for your comments.
Regards.
