Protocol decoders
Revision as of 16:15, 22 December 2012 by Uwe Hermann (talk | contribs) (Put existing/supported PDs in one table (can be generated later).)
This is a list of supported protocol decoders (PDs) and decoders which we might want to write in the future (or users might want to contribute).
See Protocol decoder API for details on how the decoders work in sigrok, and Protocol decoder HOWTO for a quick introduction about how to write your own decoders.
