I can only write this as a home hobbyist who dabbles in electronics. I have a Siglent scope and the logic probe attachment is like 400 bucks, so I figured we'll give this one (the la1010) a shot. I downloaded the latest version of the software, it installed no problem (on windows 10) and grabbed a circuit that I had made with some shift registers and hooked up 3 probes and immediately captured some data.My really only complaint is that the grabbers aren't numbered, and the colors don't match the wires for the connectors, so I could see tracking more than 6 or 7 signals could be problematic. I think I'll probably burn in or use a sharpie to write some numbers on them.Update: I built a quick counter circuit using a 74LS393 and a 555 timer, and this worked flawlessly. See the attached screenshot.

This logic analyzer is pretty good. It has programmable threshold voltage (Vth). However, I found a bug and a work-around. When PC goes to sleep and wakes up, it appears this Vth setting is lost - it appears to be 0 even though the GUI shows the old setting. This causes some random triggers and the logic analyzer captures some random data that is non-existent. The error is repeatable, i.e. just let your PC go to sleep, wake it up and start capturing.Work-around:Set a new Vth very close to the original value. For example, if orig Vth = 0.6V, set a new one to 0.61V.If you're using pre-set Vth for certain logic, my guess is set to a new one, then set to old one.The good stuff:1. Easy to set up.2. GUI seems easy to use.3. User Guide has very good English, surprising for a Chinese product. No typos or wrong grammar.4. Lots of protocols supported. I only have tested USB PD so far.5. Very good price and very good quality.6. Extra connectors are provided.

If you are working with high speed SPI bus data, the LA2016 logic analyzer is not your friend. I had a cheap Saleae knock off and was sampling SPI data from a Lenovo PC during the 10 second boot up with no problem. Since the Saleae only goes to 50 MHz, I went to the LA2016 to get higher sample rates.The major problem with the LA 2016 is the capture time is not repeatable and is much shorter than shown on the software drop down, so much so that I consider It deceptive. For example, with 100Mhz sample rate and 1 gig samples the unit predicts a sample time of 10 sec. On consecutive runs I got sample times of 4 seconds, 7 seconds and only one time 10 seconds. At 200 MHz, setting the samples to 10 gig predicts a sample time of 50 seconds but it only captured 3 seconds of data. There is a sampling progress bar and if you watch it, you can see that it was only sampling for 3 seconds. I wrote the manufacturer and they agreed that because of their compression software, sample times may be shorter than predicted. That is why they put an * next to the number of samples. They agreed that at 200 MHz and 10 gig samples although the software predicts 50 seconds of data, you might only get the 3 seconds I observed. They recommended that if you need more sample time, use it in streaming mode, but in streaming mode it only samples at 50 MHz which is no better than the Saleae.There are a number of quirks with the software. The cheap Saleae logic analyzer, gives you a table showing every occurrence of a search term so you can step through the memory instead of having to scroll through the traces. The search can be set to look for occurrences on either MOSI or MISO. Not so on the LA2016, you only can search on MOSI and MISO together. The LA2016 is sensitive to glitches giving you many clock errors unless you use the glitch filter. The Saleae software gives you an Excel spreadsheet of the decoded data but the LA2016 spreadsheet just shows the logic levels (undecoded) which to me was useless.All in all the cheap Saleae logic analyzer outperformed the LA2016 for SPI data. This may not be the case for other protocols or mine may have been defective, but the net result is I am returning it to Amazon.

This item has been great! I bought it for work as a quick and cheap alternative to very other logic analyzer on the market and it has not disappointed. Working in embedded systems applications, this has had no issue capturing and has fit my need for speed with no problem. It’s a nice little desktop analyzer that takes up little space in my work area. Would recommend.

Inga konstigheter att komma igång. Använder den som hjälpmedel vid konstruktion av elektronikprojekt med inbyggd mjukvara. Snabba svar från support vid frågor. Jag undrade om mjukvaran fungerade med Windows 11 eftersom det inte var med i listan över OS. Fick omgående svar att det skulle fungera. Fick också möjlighet att ladda ner mjukvaran för test innan mitt köp.

après plusieurs mois d'utilisation (utilisation professionnelle et personnelle) le produit répond parfaitement à mes attentes, ce qui est le plus important pour moi est la mise à disposition par le fabriquant d'un logiciel bien pensé et mis à jour régulièrement, l'aide à l'interprétation des signaux est également très appréciée (CAN, MODBUS UART SPI etc...) ainsi que la mémorisation des contextes et des événements relevés.très bon rapport qualité/prix également -> je conseille ce produit (le reste de la gamme peux aussi répondre à des attentes plus pointues).

Software installed and device connected to my computer with no fuss. The results seem pretty accurate - microsecond pulses from my Arduino are clearly captured and accurately measured. I haven’t tried all of the advanced features of the software yet, but it seems pretty polished.I will note that I foolishly assumed that the red dots on the front of the device were LEDs which would light up to show the logic level. This is *not* true, which was slightly disappointing, but my own fault for not reading more clearly.

Let's start with everything great about this device. It's got a great price, and it's got software and a manual that have clearly been translated by someone who actually speaks English fluently. None of those typical Chinesium translation mistakes, which shows that they actually cared and spent the money to do this right.I'm just decoding UART signals, so I wired this up and had it working in a matter of 10 minutes, and that includes the time I spent looking through the manual to figure out the basics, then a little deeper in to figure out UART decoding and trigger settings. Wow, this took me WAY longer to set up on my oscilloscope. See the included image.Now for the negatives. It feels old. A USB-B port? That's so 2009. A CD included in the box? I haven't had an optical drive in my computer for like 5 years. Um... that's it. That's all the negatives. Even the USB-A to USB-B cable is really high quality because of how flexible it is.What a great device!

Excellent purchase, I got the results I was looking for same day I received it. I wish I had purchased it sooner. This is definitely a step up from a logic probe. Software is intuitive and easy to use for my first use case. Plug it in, open the app, set your # of lines and logic levels, then click go.
