Protocol Exercisers & Analyzers

I3C USB Adapter

Model No: PGY-I3C_USB_Adapter

The PGY-I3C_USB_Adapter provides the ability to operate its features from Third party application using function calls. All access to hardware is performed through a high-level application programming interface (API). It encapsulates common procedures that the user would need to perform to setup and use an I3C interface.

In such a way, it allows third party application to have access over the connected I3C/I2C bus of the target, which includes

  • ConfiguringNode as Master/Slave
  • GeneratingTraffic
  • MonitorNetwork Traffic
  • ReportGeneration

Users can easily set up the analyzer to generate I3C/I2C traffic using Linux support.This representation of information makes it an industry-best offering and an easy-to-use solution to debug the I3C protocol activity. This can be used when you have a very limited budget but still want a host and device configuration which is capable of handling API scripting. This representation of information makes it an industry-best offering and an easy-to-use solution to debug the I3C protocol activity
