CWAV, Inc. [http://usbee.com/company.htm has been closed and no longer sells] the USBee test pods (has chosen to go out of business effective September 10, 2015). But there are a lot of clones, like [[MCU123 USBee AX Pro clone]]. Just search for '''24mhz 8ch logic analyzer''' on http://ebay.com/ or http://aliexpress.com/ for one (usually under $10).

This is a fairly standard FX2 based 8 channel 24 MHz logic analyzer, purchased from AliExpress, arrived in 6 days

https://aliexpress.com/item/24MHz-8-Channel-Logic-Analyzer/32814170174.html


The VKTECH clone is a USB-based, 8-channel logic analyzer (and signal generator) with up to 24MHz sampling rate.

In sigrok, we use the open-source fx2lafw firmware for this logic analyzer.

See CWAV USBee SX/Info for some more details (such as lsusb -vvv output) on the device.
