The XZL_Studio AX is a USB-based, 8-channel logic analyzer with up to 24MHz sampling rate, and with 2 additional analog channels.
It is a clone of the CWAV USBee AX-Pro.
In sigrok, we use the open-source fx2lafw firmware for this logic analyzer.
Note: Only the logic analyzer functionality is supported so far, analog support is work in progress, as is the independent trigger.
See XZL_Studio AX/Info for some more details (such as lsusb -v output) on the device.
Hardware
- Main chip: Cypress CY7C68013A-56LTXC (FX2LP), U6

Protocol
Since we use the open-source fx2lafw firmware for this device, we don't need to know the protocol.
Resources
- EE Electronics ESLA201A - the same circuit (from firmware's point of view). PCB has been copied and altered, same silkscreen labels. No electrolytic caps, no resistive trimmers, larger screw-hole-keepouts, no cap on pin 13 at U10, no U13 (second MAX1044/ICL7660). Has extra button inside the box!
