I am working on a new design that will be installed in a system. To do so, I need to save board space. My target USB bus is inside of an embedded system. To analyze and verify the results, I'll need to tap off the lines to monitor the USB bus. To use the Beagle USB 480 Protocol Analyzer, I think I'll only need to wire in GND and the D+/D- signal pair - is that correct?

I have multiple AardvarkTM I2C/SPI Host Adapters and I plan to use them for a production flow; programming SPI EEPROMs (Microchip 93AA56AT-I/OT). It looks like this device is not supported by Flash Center Software. Also, to program this device, it looks like polarity needs to be set as "active high". Can you send me information about editing SS polarity for this device?

I am using the CheetahTM SPI Host Adapter and would like to use it to program an SPI device. To set this device to programming mode, I need to do the following:

I just purchased the KomodoTM CAN Interface and I need to count the number of retried transmissions on the CAN bus. How can I do that? Please advise.

I will be using the Aardvark host adapter to program a series of SPI memory devices. This is a high volume project - what is the fastest and easiest way I can do this?

I am trying to sample IMU (inertial measurement unit, M-G362PDC1 by Epson) data at 100 Hz but my setup misses some of the 16-bit SPI data samples. Here’s my setup:

I am looking to use an SPI host adapter as a master to simulate a MCU (multipoint control unit) for an application - this MCU in the design phase. Another existing MCU will be used as the SPI slave. In this simulation, I need to send an 8-byte message on one slave select. The first byte will always be the message ID, which the microcontroller needs to process to determine how to respond to the remaining 7 bytes. For this project, I need to insert a delay between the first byte and the second byte. The required delay is 150μs. Which host adapter do you recommend?

I'm trying use the CheetahTM SPI Host Adapter to program Micron SPI flash devices N25Q256A and N25Q00A. I have two questions:
