We have been using the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter together with the Flash Center Software and have successfully programmed the AT45DB011E SPI Flash memory chip many times.  We recently upgraded the flash chip to a newer model, and got a verification error.  Also, the hex data we read from the chip didn’t match the hex data we tried to write into the flash device. If a chip isn’t in your parts library, what can we do?

I read the article Monitoring an embedded USB with a Beagle USB Protocol Analyzer and it looks like what I need to start my project. I’ll be using the Beagle USB 5000 v2 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer - standard edition. But before I get started, I have a few questions:

I would like to use the Total Phase Promira Serial Platform to control two GPIO pins and program a 1.8V SPI flash device.  I have some questions about the output voltage and signal levels of these pins.

We just bought our first Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter and have a couple of questions.

One of the many benefits of the Promira™ Serial Platform with SPI Active Level 1-3 Applications is that it gives you several options to program SPI devices – you can use the Control Center Serial, Flash Center, or the Promira API software tools (each supported on various platforms). Following is an overview of programming an SPI EEPROM by executing command line code with the Control Center Serial Software Command Line Mode. For details, please refer to our knowledge base article, Programming an SPI EEPROM Using Promira Serial Platform and Control Center Serial Command Line on Linux.

I’m trying to save all captured data, including the data that is displayed in the lower pane (the ASCII details) to a .csv file. However, my file shows the truncated data as displayed on the screen. How do I capture and save complete, fully intact data? I am using the Beagle USB 480 Protocol Analyzer and Data Center Software.

Last week we had big news for USB Type-C: we released the first version of Data Center Software supporting capture & decode of the Power Delivery protocol! Along with this, we started shipping our updated USB Power Delivery Analyzer.

Held annually in Nuremburg, Germany, Embedded World 2016 was the largest, most exciting yet.  Hundreds of exhibitors displaying their latest embedded technology innovation to thousands of visitors makes it a fun event.
