Re: cheap USB analyzer based on FPGA

I checked with a scope after having insterted "spy pins" in the middle of a
AF/AM cable
--> swing is indeed 0v - 3.6V ."spyied" device was a Webcam, used SW was
ampcap.

My scope is old and unaccurate , i'm not sure of the exact acceptable level
for NON 5V tolerant devices
(3.3V? 3.6V?...)

When using live video, there are data frame of length ~40 ms & period ~50 ms
When "zooming", i can see the USB full speed frames every 1 ms.
Theses frames have a duration of ~200 - 250 us when live video is enabled

When no video is enabled, the 1ms frame are still threre but no data

Thanks Eric,
However concerning the 5V tolerance, i'm not sure it is necessary since
the
D+ & D- level swing
stays in the 0V - 3.6 V range

My first step will consist in measuring these levels with a scope

Those levels are OK but in USB spec there is a tolerance to short to
5V requirement which is why it's mentioned. In a controlled
environment you don't need 5V tolerance on the data inputs.
