Chapter 7 Protocol Decoding
Protocol analysis can be used by users to discover errors, debug hardware and
accelerate development easily, so as to guarantee quick and high-quality
accomplishment of projects. Protocol decoding is the basis of protocol analysis. Only
protocol analyses with correct protocol decoding are acceptable and only correct
protocol decoding can provide more error information. DS1000Z-E provides two bus
decoding modules (Decode 1 and Decode 2) to make common protocol decoding
(including Parallel, RS232, I2C and SPI) for the input signals of the analog channels
(CH1 and CH2). Among these decoding types, RS232 decoding, I2C decoding, and
SPI decoding are serial bus decodings. As the decoding functions and setting
methods of Decode 1 and Decode 2 are the same, this chapter only takes Decode1
for illustration.
