Makes total sense if it provides enough bandwidth. There are some other options that are based off of the FX2 USB2.0 chip that are common in low cost ($10) 8ch 25MHZ logic analyzers as well. As you said it's a block with a few input pins, FIFO, and a usb interface, so if it works, sounds good

If you want high-speed io to USB the FX3 is probably one of the best bets. You see it frequently used on logic analyser and software defined radio boards between the USB and the FPGA. https://www.cypress.com/products/ez-usb-fx3-superspeed-usb-30-peripheral-controller There are several EZ-USB

My two cents... I would definitely make use of some existing frontend for tracing visualisation. Something like this in case of lttng - https://lttng.org/viewers/ Trace Compass seems to be a fairly complete solution for visualisation - https://www.eclipse.org/tracecompass Petr On Sat, Jun 13, 20
