Book: Logic Analyzers in Practice
Step-by-step instructions guide you through the analysis of modern protocols such as I²C, SPI, UART, RS-232, NeoPixel, WS28xx, HD44780 and 1-Wire. With the help of numerous experimental circuits based on the Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino Uno and the Bus Pirate, you will learn the practical application of popular USB logic analyzers.
All the experimental circuits presented in this book have been fully tested and are fully functional. The necessary program listings are included – no special programming or electronics knowledge is required for these circuits. The programming languages used are MicroPython and C along with the development environments Thonny and Arduino IDE.
This book uses several models of flexible and widely available USB logic analyzers and shows the strengths and weaknesses of each price range.
You will learn about the criteria that matter for your work and be able to find the right device for you.
Whether Arduino, Raspberry Pi or Raspberry Pi Pico, the example circuits shown allow you to get started quickly with protocol analysis and can also serve as a basis for your own experiments.
After reading this book, you will be familiar with all the important terms and contexts, conduct your own experiments, analyze protocols independently, culminating in a comprehensive knowledge set of digital signals and protocols.

1-Wire ist die Bezeichnung für eine serielle Schnittstelle, die mit nur einer Datenader auskommt. Es ist ein Master-Multi-Slave-Kommunikationsprotokoll. Verfügbar sind integrierte Bausteine zur Temperaturmessung, Akkuüberwachung, Echtzeituhr und beispielsweise Hotelschließanlagen. Eine Besonderheit von 1-Wire-Geräten ist die Spannungsversorgung aus der Gegenstation, hierbei erfolgt die Versorgung der Slaves über die Datenleitung.
Der Leser erhält mit „Das 1-Wire-Praxisbuch“ eine umfassende Einführung in die 1-Wire-Technologie. Das Buch zeigt anhand praktischer Projekte zum Nachbauen, wie man verschiedene verfügbare 1-Wire-Chips in eigene Mikrocontroller-gesteuerte Anwendungen integrieren kann, und zwar mit Assembler-Software-Implementierungen für PIC-Mikrocontroller und mit Sketches für den Arduino.
Die 1-Wire-Technik kommt in dem Buch praxisnah bei einem elektronischen Schloss zum Einsatz, das von einem PIC-Mikrocontroller gesteuert wird. Ein weiteres Praxisprojekt erläutert Schritt für Schritt, wie beispielsweise eine ständige Temperaturmessung mit 1-Wire-Bausteinen möglich ist.
