DESCRIPTION
Can't get a chip to work? Is it the circuit, code, bad part, or a burned out pin? The Bus Pirate sends commands over common serial protocols so you can get to know a chip before prototyping. Updated with tons of new features and tools, talking to chips and probing interfaces is more fun than ever!
The Bus Pirate is an open-source hardware debugging tool that converts simple commands into common bus protocols such as 1-Wire, I2C, SPI, UART, several LEDs and more. Send commands to a chip or sensor and get the response, without writing a line of code.
Commands are entered into a serial terminal. A new VT100 mode supports color text and a status toolbar that displays the function and voltage of each pin.
The Bus Pirate is designed to eliminate the frustrating parts of hacking and hardware tinkering. We tried to tackle all the pain points, from bizarre and uncomfortable acrobatics with multimeter probes to the hassle of connecting multiple test hooks to a single pin. With Bus Pirate 5, the information you need is right where you need it.
- Bulldozer buffered IO - 1.2 to 5volt direct interfacing with 8 bidirectional buffered IOs
- Voltage measurement extravaganza - The Bus Pirate displays voltage readings for every pin, right on its vibrant LCD screen and in the terminal status bar
- Current measurement - Get a reality check by monitoring current use in real-time
- Programmable power supply - 1 to 5volt output, 400mA max, for powering all kinds of devices
- Programmable current limit - A 0 to 500mA programmable hardware fuse sets current limits that keep your projects safe and sane
- A big colourful display - Keep track of pin assignments, voltages and current
- Colour terminal and status bar - VT100 terminal emulation for that modern 1970s feel
- Just One Button - A dedicated button for automating repetitive debug commands while you're wrist-deep in circuits
- Auxiliary Header - A second header to easily connect logic analyzers and other tools. Stop struggling to fit multiple probe hooks on tiny chip leads
