--- Quote from: Johannsen on November 20, 2023, 09:31:12 pm ---I'm still thinking about which hardware to get and with a student discount price the smallest Saleaa is still 3x more expensive than the DSlogic plus and the DSlogic is propably more modern than the Saleae

Saleae clones are only a few $, and they work just fine. If you ask me, buy the cheapest $5-10 Saleae clone. Apart from that, even a casual Arduino can act as an LA.
A Logic Analyzer (LA) seems like a nice tool to have (when you don't have any), but in practice you won't use it much, if at all. You'll learn very fast to program without an LA. Buy the cheapest LA, and if you really need more later, buy the DSlogic or something else.
Save your money for DMM, Oscilloscope, AWG and Power Supply, those are the must have instruments in an EE lab.
Johannsen:
buna, Please stick to my question eitherway..

It's one of my most used tools and helped me already so much.. i have a cheap salaea clone but the speed is just to slow and other specs as well..
I have a nice DMM, Function Gen. and MSO5072. The LA is much more in use than my nice 1k€ scope..
I hope here's anyone that can share his/her latest experience with the Pango variant..
RoGeorge:
In this case, DSlogic Plus is one of the nicest LA, maybe the best. :-+
Beware that the max sample rate is possible only when capturing 4 digital inputs. Another thing, you'll need proper impedance matching to capture at 400MHz, or else you may capture reflections in the wires (without impedance matching you may see ragged edges at the fastest speed).
Apart from that, I'm very happy with my DSlogic Plus, and DSview looks and works better than the original sigrok+PulseView.
Johannsen:
can you also write your own decoder for DSview? edit: it seems so I installed that to test it and compared it with Saleae's Logic.. it looks ok but what I found insteresting that there are several protocol decoder scripts like https://sigrok.org/wiki/Protocol_decoder:Cc1101 available for Pulseview. 400MHz I won't need in the nearer future but a bit more than the 4MHz I have so far and the 1Meg input impedance would helpfull as well.
RoGeorge:
I see now they have an even faster model, 1GHz sampling rate and USB3.0

Mine is the DSlogic Pro with 400MHz/4channels/USB2.0 max
