The PoLabs PoScope Basic2 is a 16-channel, 8MHz, USB-based logic analyzer (plus oscilloscope, signal/pattern generator, and more).
See PoLabs PoScope Basic2/Info for some more details (such as lsusb -v output) on the device.
Hardware
- Silicon Labs C8051F32x: 8051-based microcontroller with USB and 10bit ADC (datasheet)
- Omron G3VM-401G: Analog switching MOS FET relay (datasheet)
- Analog Devices AD8544: CMOS RRIO quad general-purpose opamp (datasheet)
- Texas Instruments HC74 87K G4 A6EK (TODO)

Teardown of another device:
Protocol
Starting a sampling run
The command for starting an acquisition is a USB control transfer (request type: vendor-specific, request: 0x07, value: 0xffa0, index: 0x0000, length: 9).
The 9 bytes of data:
Byte | Description | Comments |
---|---|---|
0 | Samplerate divider | (see table below) |
1 | ||
2 | ||
3 | ||
4 | ||
5 | Trigger mask | Bit 0 is the mask for probe 0, bit 7 is the mask for probe 7. The same byte is used as trigger mask byte for bus A or bus B (only one at a time is possible). |
6 | ||
7 | ||
8 |
Stopping a sampling run
Sample rates
8MHz - 4MHz: Buffer size is 128 bytes, only bus A is available, ...
2.6MHz - 2MHz: Buffer size is 1160 bytes, only bus A is available, ...
1MHz - 600kHz: Buffer size is 1544 bytes, ...
|
500kHz and lower: Buffer size is only limited by the PC memory, ...
|
Sample format
- 8-bit sampling: One sample is one byte. Bit 0 is the value of probe A.7 (or B.7), bit 7 is the value of probe A.0 (or B.0).
- 16-bit sampling: One sample consists of two bytes. Byte 0 corresponds to bus A, byte 1 corresponds to bus B. The bit assignment is the same as above.

Get current firmware version
There is a command to request the current firmware version (and date) from the device. The device returns 5 bytes as response:
Byte | Description | Comments |
---|---|---|
0 | Major firmware version | Example: 0x03 means major version 3 (example version: 3.5). |
1 | Minor firmware version | Example: 0x05 means minor version 5 (example version: 3.5). |
2 | Firmware date (day) | Example: 0x1c means 28 (example date: 28/12/07). |
3 | Firmware date (month) | Example: 0x0c means 12 (example date: 28/12/07). |
4 | Firmware date (year, two digits) | Example: 0x07 means 2007 (example date: 28/12/07). |
So in the example of 0x03 0x05 0x1c 0x0c 0x07 the resulting firmware version/date is 3.5 (28/12/07).
