USBee-ZX

The USBee ZX Digital Test Pod is a high performance USB High-Speed based pod that provides an assortment of digital test and control functions, such as Logic Analyzer, Signal Generator, Data Logger, Frequency Counter, Frequency Generator, Async Serial Controller and Monitor, Pulse Counter, PWM Controller, and Remote Controller functions, all in one compact and easy to use unit. Also included is the USBee ZX Tool Builder software that allows the creation of custom test tools using Visual Basic or C++.

The USBee ZX Digital Test Pod utilizes the USB High-Speed bus to turn an existing PC into a high powered Logic Analyzer or Signal Generator that can store enough samples to fill available PC memory. USBee ZX users are now routinely storing over 200 million samples per Logic Analyzer trace which allows visibility into an embedded design that was previously only available on dedicated test equipment costing tens of thousands of dollars. Since the USBee ZX pod can generate hundred-million-sample waveforms as well, it opens the door to a type of control and analysis that was not cost feasible before for many embedded developers.

CWAV has designed the USBee ZX system to take advantage of already existing PC resources. The USBee ZX pod streams data over the High-Speed USB bus to and from the PC, allowing the PC to perform all of the triggering and data storing. This makes possible an affordable USBee ZX, while pushing the sample storage capabilities orders of magnitudes beyond that of traditional dedicated logic analyzers or signal generators. The USBee ZX Digital Test Pod can utilize available PC memory as the sample buffer, allowing selectable sample depths from one to many hundreds of millions of samples.

The USBee ZX Digital Test Pod can capture and generate samples up to a maximum of 24 million samples per second depending on the PC configuration. The USBee ZX Auto-Calibration feature automatically reduces the sample rate to ensure accurate and reliable timing, even on systems with slower processor and USB bus speeds.

Includes high performance USBee ZX High-Speed Universal Serial Bus Test Pod with 14 multicolored test leads and high performance miniature test clips, Getting Started Guide and USBee ZX Software CD.
