sigrok is intended as a flexible, cross-platform, and hardware-independent logic analyzer software, i.e., it supports various logic analyzers from many different vendors.

Here is a list of currently supported devices (various stages of completeness) and devices we plan to support in the near future.

Device Status Comments

supported
The Saleae Logic is a low-cost logic analyzer. The unit itself is very small, and has a USB 2.0 port connecting it to a PC (and powering the unit) and a connector for the 8+1 probe set. It is built around a Cypress EZ-USB FX2LP microcontroller — an 8051-compatible chip with built-in USB 2.0 controller. It can sample 8 channels up to 24MHz.

supported
The EE Electronics / Eeelec XLA (a.k.a. ESLA100) is a cheap 8-channel logic analyzer (and a Saleae Logic clone).
ASIX SIGMA.jpg

supported
The ASIX SIGMA is a 16 channel logic analyzer with sample rate support up to 200 MHz and with 256 Mbit on-board memory.
Openbench logic sniffer front.jpg

supported
The Openbench Logic Sniffer (OLS) is an FPGA-based logic analyzer, supporting 32 probes for probing up to 100MHz signals and advanced trigger functionality. It is a fully open source device — the circuit design, VHDL code for the FPGA, firmware for the PIC microcontroller and Java-based client software are all freely available. The project is a collaboration between Gadget Factory and Dangerous Prototypes.

supported
The ZEROPLUS Logic Cube LAP-C logic analyzer series should be supported in sigrok pretty soon.

in progress
The CWAV USBee SX is a Cypress FX2 based, 8-channel logic analyzer (and signal generator).
Braintechnology usb lps.jpg

in progress
The Braintechnology USB-LPS is an Cypress FX2 based logic analyzer and signal generator with up to 16 channels.
Intronix Logicport.jpg

in progress
The Intronix Logicport LA1034 is an FPGA-based logic analyzer, capable of sampling data on 34 channels at up to 500MHz. It has very limited memory, however, and can only use compression at rates up to 200MHz.
Nuvola Orange.png
in progress
The Link Instruments MSO-19‎ is a 2GSa/s oscilloscope, 200MSa/s logic analyzer, 100MSa/s pattern generator and a TDR. It is also extremely portable and is only $249 (including probe, clips, wires and software).
Nuvola Red.png
planned
The Buspirate v3 supports a logic analyzer mode and can thus be used for sample captures, however only at low speeds. To quote from the announcement: The Bus Pirate can’t store a lot of samples, it can’t feed live samples very fast, and speeds are in the kHz range.

The RockyLogic Ant18e is a 1GHz logic analyzer.

Potential other candidates

If you own any other logic analyzers and want to add support for them in sigrok (or donate/lend devices to developers), please let us know. We're always happy to add more hardware support! The Logic Analyzer Comparison table lists quite a few other devices we know about which may be interesting targets.
