The Saleae Logic16 is a USB-based, 16-channel logic analyzer with 100/50/32/16MHz sampling rate (at 3/6/9/16 enabled channels).

The case requires a Torx T5 screwdriver to open.

See Saleae Logic16/Info for more details (such as lsusb -vvv output) about the device.

See Saleae Logic for the predecessor product of the Saleae Logic16.

Firmware

Firmware and FPGA bitstream usage

You can use the sigrok-fwextract-saleae-logic16 tool to extract (from the "Logic" Linux binary) the FX2 firmware and the FPGA bitstreams required for using the Saleae Logic16: 

$ sigrok-fwextract-saleae-logic16 Logic
saved 5214 bytes to saleae-logic16-fx2.fw
saved 149516 bytes to saleae-logic16-fpga-18.bitstream
saved 149516 bytes to saleae-logic16-fpga-33.bitstream

Copy these files to the directory where your libsigrok installation expects them (usually /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware) and they will be found and used automatically by the libsigrok saleae-logic16 driver.

Technical firmware details

The firmware for the FX2LP is embedded in the vendor application as a set of Intel HEX lines. Each line is uploaded individually with a separate control transfer. The firmware currently occupies the address range [0x0000-0x145d], but is uploaded out of order.

See Saleae Logic16/Firmware for more details on the vendor firmware.

Protocol

Sample format:

The samples (as received via USB) for the enabled probes (3, 6, 9, or 16) are organized as follows: 

0xLL 0xLL  0xMM 0xMM  0xNN 0xNN   0xPP 0xPP  0xQQ 0xQQ  0xRR 0xRR ...

In the above example, 3 probes are enabled. For each probe there are 2 bytes / 16 bits (e.g. 0xLL 0xLL for probe 0), then the next probe's data is received (0xMM 0xMM for probe 1), then 0xNN 0xNN for probe 2. When 2 bytes have been received for all enabled probes, the process restarts with probe 0 again.

The 16 bits of data per probe seem to contain the pin state of the respective probe (1: high, 0: low) at 16 different sampling points/times (which ones depends on the samplerate).

Configuration:

Endpoint 1 is used for configuration of the analyzer. The transfers are "encrypted" using a simple series of additions and XORs. Two kinds of transfers are used; a 3 byte out transfer starting with 0x81 followed by a 1 byte in transfer, and a 4 byte out transfer starting with 0x80. It's quite plausible that these provide raw read/write access to memory locations.
