Real-time PC-based analyser for serial comms
New from Computer Solutions, StreamTeam is a suite of Windows-based tools for debugging high-speed serial communications links.
It will also support low-voltage processors down to 1.2V.
The BDI3000 provides high-speed links to the target CPU (up to 32MHz) and to the PC (via 10/100 Ethernet), resulting in very fast program downloads - up to 1500Kbyte/s, depending on the CPU - and Flash programming times limited predominantly by the CPU and Flash memory characteristics.
A typical programming speed is 220Kbyte/s for the Xscale PXA250.
The same hardware is used for all supported targets and debuggers, allowing the unit to be used on subsequent projects, and features easy connection to the target system in a robust EMC-optimised design.
All these performance enhancements have been achieved without an increase in the price of the unit.
The BDI3000 is now in stock for immediate delivery from Computer Solutions.
