== Observations of the LA2016 Internal SPI Bus ==
<small>
The software on the host PC controls the logic analyser capture settings by writing to a set of byte-wide control registers within the FPGA.<br />
It contains around 60 registers which are accessed using the SPI bus between the FX2 MCU and the FPGA (see schematic on sigrok wiki page).<br />
The SPI bus is configured with the FX2 as master and FPGA as slave. Every SPI transaction is two bytes and is framed by SPI CS (active low).<br />
The first byte contains the register address and a READ/write bit. The second byte contains the data, which is either written to the<br />
FPGA or read from it. Note that these transactions are all least significant bit first on the SPI bus, so your LA will need to<br />
reverse the bit order to interpret correctly.<br />
<br />
Capture status can be read from register address 0x00 and 0x01. After a capture has completed, information about the data location in SDRAM can<br />
be read from addresses 0x10-0x1B. For other registers, reading is not implemented and they just read as 0xFF. Where reading is implemented, the<br />
same address is used to access different registers based on read/write. For example, FPGA status is read from address 0x00 and 0x01 but writing 0x03<br />
to address 0x00 starts an acquistion.<br />
<br />
The FX2 MCU is simply acting as a 'dumb' gateway, translating USB requests for FPGA access into SPI bus requests. USB control OUT vendor class<br />
transfers with bRequest of 0x20 will write to the FPGA registers, whereas IN transfers will read them. For example, a USB request to read two<br />
bytes starting from address 0x00 would cause the FX2 to issue a SPI read for address 0x00 and then a read for address 0x01.<br />

=== SPI bus activity during OEM software initialisation ===
    First byte is FPGA register address. The MSbit is set for READ transfers.
    |
    |  Second byte is data being written or read

=== SPI bus activity during capture sequence ===
OEM software with no triggers set does this to FPGA regs:
    First byte is FPGA register address. The MSbit is set for READ transfers.
    |
    |  Second byte is data being written or read
    |  |
    |  |
    03 00  <-- Set capture mode to be "write to SDRAM", rather than stream mode (where reg 03 = 01)

    81 85  The run_state values in order are:

Observations of the LA2016 Internal SPI Bus

The software on the host PC controls the logic analyser capture settings by writing to a set of byte-wide control registers within the FPGA.
It contains around 60 registers which are accessed using the SPI bus between the FX2 MCU and the FPGA (see schematic on sigrok wiki page).
The SPI bus is configured with the FX2 as master and FPGA as slave. Every SPI transaction is two bytes and is framed by SPI CS (active low).
The first byte contains the register address and a READ/write bit. The second byte contains the data, which is either written to the
FPGA or read from it. Note that these transactions are all least significant bit first on the SPI bus, so your LA will need to
reverse the bit order to interpret correctly.

Capture status can be read from register address 0x00 and 0x01. After a capture has completed, information about the data location in SDRAM can
be read from addresses 0x10-0x1B. For other registers, reading is not implemented and they just read as 0xFF. Where reading is implemented, the
same address is used to access different registers based on read/write. For example, FPGA status is read from address 0x00 and 0x01 but writing 0x03
to address 0x00 starts an acquistion.

The FX2 MCU is simply acting as a 'dumb' gateway, translating USB requests for FPGA access into SPI bus requests. USB control OUT vendor class
transfers with bRequest of 0x20 will write to the FPGA registers, whereas IN transfers will read them. For example, a USB request to read two
bytes starting from address 0x00 would cause the FX2 to issue a SPI read for address 0x00 and then a read for address 0x01.
