0.2.0 (2013-05-04)
------------------ Note: This release DOES change the libsigrok API. That means it is NOT backwards-compatible and frontends will need updates. * Support for analog sources (oscilloscopes, DMMs, data loggers) was added. * New supported hardware: - Logic analyzers: - CWAV USBee DX - ZEROPLUS LAP-16128U - Oscilloscopes: - Hantek DSO-2090 (USB scope) - Rigol DS1052D - Rigol DS1052E - Rigol DS1102D - Rigol DS1102E - Multimeters: - Agilent U1231A - Agilent U1232A - Agilent U1233A - Brymen BM857 - Digitek DT4000ZC - Fluke 187 - Fluke 189 - Fluke 287 - Fluke 289 - Fluke ScopeMeter 199B - MASTECH MAS345 - Metex ME-31 - Metex M-3640D - PCE PCE-DM32 - PeakTech 3410 - PeakTech 4370 - RadioShack 22-168 - RadioShack 22-805 - RadioShack 22-812 - Tecpel DMM-8060 - Tecpel DMM-8061 - TekPower TP4000ZC - UNI-T UT61D - UNI-T UT61E - V&A VA18B - Victor 70C - Victor 86C - Voltcraft VC-820 - Voltcraft VC-840 - Sound level meters: - Colead SL-5868P - Tondaj SL-814 - Temperature/humidity/CO loggers: - Lascar EL-USB and EL-USB CO series (various models) - MIC 98581 - MIC 98583 * The limitation of max. 64 digital probes has been removed in many places. * Added generic DMM protocol parsers usable for various DMMs, over various cables and/or transports (e.g. same protocol over serial or USB/HID): - Cyrustek ES51922 binary protocol. - Fortune Semiconductor FS9721_LP3/FS9721B binary protocol. - Fortune Semiconductor FS9922-DMM3/DMM4 binary protocol. - Metex 14-byte ASCII protocol. - RadioShack 22-812 binary protocol. * zeroplus-logic-cube driver: - Fix acquisition at some specific samplerates. Only report valid ones. - Default to a samplerate of 1MHz. - Fix trigger code. - Add pre-trigger (capture ratio) setting. - Add support for the ZEROPLUS LAP-16128U. * fx2lafw driver: - Add support for the CWAV USBee DX. This requires the latest version of the fx2lafw firmware files. - Add support for wide sampling (i.e. 16 probes instead of just 8). - Fix multi-stage (software) triggers. - Fix various memory leaks, firmware upload timeout bugs, and other issues. - Various performance and memory usage improvements in the driver. * chronovu-la8 driver: - Add support for newer LA8 versions with USB VID/PID 0403:8867. * demo driver: - Various bugfixes when setting time/sample limits. * openbench-logic-sniffer driver: - Don't try to scan all available serial ports for OLS devices. Instead, the serial port to use now has to be specified by the user. - Allow disabling RLE. * udev rules file: Add many new entries for additional devices. * New output formats: - analog: Prints analog values and their unit (e.g. from scopes or DMMs). * New input formats: - vcd: Value Change Dump format - wav: Waveform audio file format (for analog data) * 'binary' input format: Add support for a 'samplerate' option. * API related changes: - There is generated Doxygen API documentation now. - The header that frontends should include is: <libsigrok/libsigrok.h>. There are other headers which are installed, but those are not meant to be included directly by the frontends. - There were numerous API changes, additions and removals, too many to list here. Please check the source code or Doxygen API documentation for the current set of API functions. * Serial port code: - Various improvements and fixes related to multiple parameters such as directions, baudrate, flow control, and others. - Add support for more baudrates (e.g. very low ones such as 600/1200) that are used in some devices. - Add support for setting DTR/RTS. * gnuplot files: Add sample files for CWAV USBee DX (for 8/16 bit sampling). * Documentation updates: - Add a README.devices file which contains various notes for users of libsigrok about device- and/or driver-specific issues. - Update README, HACKING, and other documents. - Updated build dependencies list. - The following libs are needed in more recent versions now: - glib (required): Now must be >= 2.32.0. - libusb-1.0 (optional): Now must be >= 1.0.9. - The following new libs were added as (optional) dependencies: - libasound / alsa-lib (optional): >= 1.0 - check (optional, only needed for unit tests): >= 0.9.4 * Portability: - Various compile fixes for Windows, FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD, and Mac OS X. - Simplify/allow/fix cross-compilation of libsigrok. - Various bugfixes for 32bit systems. - Various endianness fixes. * configure: - Add a --disable-all-drivers option. This can be overridden by additional --enable-<drivername> options to selectively enable only some. - Improve autodetection of libraries, and only enable drivers for which all required libraries were found. * Add a test suite for libsigrok with a few unit tests (the list will grow). 0.1.1 (2012-05-30) ------------------ Note: This release does NOT change the libsigrok API. * The 'saleae-logic' driver (which depends on the Saleae firmware), has been replaced with the new 'fx2lafw' driver, which uses an open-source firmware for Cypress FX2 chips which is also named 'fx2lafw'. Details: http://sigrok.org/wiki/Fx2lafw This new driver (+ firmware) currently supports the following devices: - ARMFLY AX-Pro - Braintechnology USB-LPS - EE Electronics ESLA100 - EE Electronics ESLA201A - Robomotic MiniLogic - Robomotic BugLogic 3 - Saleae Logic - USBee AX - USBee SX - All Cypress FX2 eval boards with stock Cypress VID/PID, including: - Lcsoft Mini Board - Braintechnology USB Interface V2.x Only acquisition with 8 probes is supported so far. Support for 16 probes and support for analog signal acquisition (on devices which have these capabilities) will be added later. * ASIX SIGMA driver: - Add support for the ASIX SIGMA2. This requires the latest version of the SIGMA/SIGMA2 firmware files. Details: http://sigrok.org/wiki/Firmware - Various bugfixes. * ZEROPLUS Logic Cube LAP-C (16032): Fix a segfault. * udev file: Add entries for Robomotic BugLogic 3, Velleman PCSU1000, Ideofy LA-08, ARMFLY AX-Pro, and Braintechnology USB Interface V2.x. * The zlib dependency has been removed (no longer needed). * Fix compiling with "Homebrew" (Mac OS X). * libsigrok now expects firmware files in $prefix/share/sigrok-firmware by default (was $prefix/share/libsigrok/firmware before). * Fix a Makefile.am bug which caused the generated ChangeLog files being accidentally deleted upon 'make distclean'. * ChronoVu LA8 input file format: Improve autodetection of the file format. We now only accept files of the size 8388613 bytes (all LA8 files have exactly this amount of bytes). 0.1.0 (2012-04-17) ------------------ * Initial release. |
