Linus Tech Tips, a tech-focused YouTube channel, leverages our Beagle USB 480/480 Power Protocol Analyzers to streamline testing scenarios in the lab, ensuring efficient and accurate latency testing for keyboards and mice, while also enabling the recording of large amounts of USB data to assess device performance effectively.
USBFireWire.com is a design and build manufacturer of computer cables and custom cable assemblies that include USB, FireWire, Ethernet, HDMI, and waterproof power cables and connectors. USBFireWire works alongside engineers across various industries to help design and build made-to-fit cables that address their clients’ cable requirements. Learn how they use the Advanced Cable Tester v2 to quickly and easily perform quality control testing during the development and manufacturing processes.
Crestron Electronics is a global leader in workplace technologies across numerous industries. Some of Crestron’s products incorporate USB and HDMI cables within the product designs, and with the company’s commitment to quality, they focus on testing each individual component and verify each finished good meets their rigorous standards. During this stage, Crestron had formerly observed inconsistencies in product performance that were linked to poorly performing cables. By using the Advanced Cable Tester v2, their team was able to comprehensively test cables to help distinguish quality cables that could be integrated into the final product.
Convergence Instruments is a global designer and producer of affordable, high-performance solutions for data acquisition and analysis. One of their products, the Acoustic Camera ACAM_64, is a composite USB device that includes multiple interfaces with their own descriptor information. To ensure that all three interfaces worked together properly and could be serviced by the MCU without timing issues, they utilized the Beagle USB 480 Protocol Analyzer in all development phases including testing, debugging, and final validation.
AVADirect Custom Computers creates and provides cutting-edge, tailored-made custom computing solutions for their customers. One customer, a major forklift manufacturer, came to AVADirect for help with designing and building a custom computing solution for their virtual reality-specific forklift simulator. Learn how AVADirect integrated the Komodo CAN Duo Interface into their setup to translate the forklift movements and CAN data over to a PC that ran the training simulation software.
Cyber Security Technology Foundation, or CySecTech, is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping bring trust into the cyberworld. They provide consumers with reliable reviews of online-purchased cables that are independent, free of conflict of interest, backed by scientific data, and accessible to the public for free. Learn how this organization uses the Advanced Cable Tester v2 to thoroughly test USB and HDMI cables purchased through online retailers and displays those test results through their TrueTesting site.
The R&D team at an interconnect solutions manufacturing company relies on quality control testing to ensure their high-performing cable assemblies operate properly. This team has previously performed functional testing on their product to determine quality, but it was often unreliable and didn’t provide visibility into any errors and their sources. Learn how this team uses the Advanced Cable Tester v2 to create a more efficient and reliable cable testing regimen on their production line.
The Beagle USB 5000 v2 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer provides real-time interactive capture and analysis of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 traffic. Learn how Cosemi Technologies, a leading provider in innovative, high-speed connectivity solutions, uses this tool to easily uncover USB transmission errors and streamline their quality-control testing on their USB cables.
The Advanced Cable Tester v2 can not only verify the quality of cables produced within factories, it is also a perfect tool for incoming quality control of third-party cables. See how an infrastructure team within a Fortune 500 company improved the reliability of their mobile test farm using this tool.
Developers have long sought a solution that offers the real-time insight into USB bus activities required for effective debugging, coupled with custom class decoding to enable visibility into early development or proprietary protocol classes. In this case study, MCCI Corporation demonstrates how they used the Total Phase USB Beagle 480 Protocol Analyzer and Data Center application coupled with their own custom application to decode their protocol of interest (RNDIS) to meet their advanced debugging needs.
