Why build your own logic analyzer when you can buy one Banggood?

  This. I own a shitty one from Aliexpress. That and sigrok are better than my old full 4U HP crate I had. But if you want to build one, why not?

    For one thing, the author could have avoided all the work of creating a GUI and lots of protocol analyzers, and thus got his project working faster. This could have been as simple as writing a sigrok driver, a process which is very easy thanks to some helper scripts and lots of examples.

      I found the sigrok website hard to navigate, and never found these examples. I'd love to learn more, as I just threw a decent fast ADC together for fun.

    Is Sigrok better than Saleae Logic?
    • duskwuff 4y ago
      Sigrok is software. Saleae makes hardware.
