5 | The sigrok project aims at creating a portable, cross-platform, | |
6 | Free/Libre/Open-Source signal analysis software suite that supports various | |
7 | device types (such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, multimeters, and more). | |
8 | ||
9 | sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw is a Free/Libre/Open-source firmware for logic | |
10 | analyzers based on the Cypress EZ-USB FX2(LP) chip, as well as the | |
11 | Hantek 6022BE USB oscilloscope. | |
12 | ||
13 | ||
14 | Status | |
15 | ------ | |
16 | ||
17 | sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw is in a usable state and has had official | |
18 | tarball releases. | |
19 | ||
20 | ||
21 | Requirements | |
22 | ------------ | |
23 | ||
24 | - git | |
25 | - make | |
26 | - autoconf >= 2.63 | |
27 | - automake >= 1.11 | |
28 | - sdcc (>= 2.9.0) | |
29 | ||
30 | Notes: | |
31 | ||
32 | - In order to build fx2lafw you need the 'sdcc' compiler (>= 2.9.0). | |
33 | On Debian you can install it via: | |
34 | ||
35 | $ apt-get install sdcc | |
36 | ||
37 | This project has been tested to work with sdcc 2.9 and 3.x. | |
38 | ||
39 | - You need libsigrok >= 0.1.1 in order to make use of fx2lafw. Earlier | |
40 | versions didn't have support for FX2 devices using this firmware. | |
41 | ||
42 | ||
43 | Building and installing | |
44 | ----------------------- | |
45 | ||
46 | In order to get the sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw source code and build it, run: | |
47 | ||
48 | $ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw | |
49 | $ cd sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw | |
50 | $ ./autogen.sh | |
51 | $ ./configure | |
52 | $ make | |
53 | ||
54 | For installing sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw: | |
55 | ||
56 | $ make install | |
57 | ||
58 | The generated *.fw files are installed into /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware. | |
59 | ||
60 | You can override the install location like this: | |
61 | ||
62 | $ ./configure --prefix=/usr | |
63 | ||
64 | See INSTALL or the following wiki page for more (OS-specific) instructions: | |
65 | ||

67 | ||
68 | ||
69 | Pre-built firmware files | |
70 | ------------------------ | |
71 | ||
72 | There are also pre-built firmware files that can be used without having | |
73 | to build them from source. You can download those from: | |
74 | ||
75 | http://sigrok.org/download/binary/sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw/ | |
76 | ||
77 | ||
78 | fx2lib | |
79 | ------ | |
80 | ||
81 | The fx2lafw code uses a (slightly modified) "fx2lib" helper library. | |
82 | ||
83 | It was imported into fx2lafw from | |
84 | ||
85 | git://github.com/ubixum/fx2lib.git | |
86 | ||
87 | as of Feb 12, 2012 (git hash "416c104cbd"). | |
88 | ||
89 | The following files/directories were removed, as they're not needed | |
90 | for our purposes: CHANGELOG, COPYING*, docs/, examples/, fw/, and utils/. | |
91 | ||
92 | ||
93 | Hantek 6022BE firmware | |
94 | ---------------------- | |
95 | ||
96 | The Hantek 6022BE firmware was originally created by Jochen Hoenicke in | |
97 | 05/2015 for the Hantek6022API github project by Robert Cope. Full credit | |
98 | for the implementation of the firmware goes to Jochen Hoenicke, thanks! | |
99 | ||
100 | Github project: | |
101 | ||
102 | https://github.com/rpcope1/Hantek6022API | |
103 | ||
104 | We've incorporated the Hantek 6022BE firmware into the sigrok-firmware-fx2lafw | |
105 | repo/tarball for convenience of sigrok users. E.g. so that they can | |
106 | easily get it with the other fx2lafw firmware files from distro | |
107 | packages, the build scripts in sigrok-util automatically build/install | |
108 | it, the sigrok Windows installers automatically ship it, the sigrok | |
109 | Android APKs automatically ship it, etc. etc. | |
110 | ||
111 | The files we've integrated into fx2lafw from Hantek6022API were taken from | |
112 | the PyHT6022/HantekFirmware/custom directory of that repo, using the state | |
113 | as of 03/2016 (the files were last modified in 05/2015, though). | |
114 | ||
115 | The git hash of the last relevant commit there was: | |
116 | ||
117 | 0498e2ab239aabb1084c19e1e24faf56764b217e | |
118 | ||
119 | Files integrated into fx2lafw: | |
120 | ||
121 | - hw/hantek-6022be/dscr.a51: Copied unmodified. | |
122 | ||
123 | - hantek_6022be.c: This file was originally created by appending the | |
124 | contents of the original device.c and fw.c together. | |
