I bit the bullet a while ago and got me an Intronix LogicPort at a setback of $385.- (http://www.pctestinstruments.com/); but very robust, unfortunately locked in to Windows platform and hence unsuited for scripted interaction for automated tests; I've suggested a scripting api or at least documenting their USB interface to enable that but it seems they dont care - looks like their usage model idea revolves around "engineer in lab, with lab coat, in front of Windows PC" http://www.sump.org/projects/analyzer/ might be a cheaper option this german website has a few other project mentioned: http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/Logic_Analyzer#SUMP_Logic_Analyzer and down from there -m > > Back when the world was young and we wannabe researchers avidly read > from cover to cover in each new data-book from the likes of TI and > Motorola, I used to design and build comparable circuits, but then I had > the bench instrumentation to test my testers, so to speak.
