Works Great
Plugged the logic analyzer in and it just worked. No driver installations or added unnecessary software and it worked great with the Logic 2 software for checking out my CAN signals.

Seems to work well
Very convenient for debugging low speed logic.

Say you want to use Saleae's software without saying Saleae in the name
High priced for a clone.Saleae was the leader in low-value analyzers like this, only they got the low-price part of that wrong, which drove others to clone them...like this one. If you're going to use clones, don't use Saleae's commercial software. Use open source PulseView and Sigrok and support their development instead.I experimented with decoding I2C and WS2812 with PulseView. The analyzer (and inexpensive clips) perform as expected...but if you're going generic, you can find these at about half this price.

Sparkfun clone with no documentation
This logic analyzer looks just like the Sparkfun "USB Logic Analyzer - 24MHz/8-Channel", but it has an older usb-mini connector rather than a modern USB-C connection. This device comes with no documentation or software, just the unit and some jumper cables.I tried getting it working with PulseView based on Sparkfun's guide, but I was unsuccessful. My computer does not automatically detect the device as a COM port, and I do not know what driver to install.The device seems to have a typo on its label, with one of the pins labeled as "CND" rather than "GND".If I can get this device working, I will update my review. But for now, I'm just frustrated with the lack of information about it and how to set it up.

Nice, low cost Saleae logic clone
This is compatible with version one of Saleae Logic. I was unable to try it with Logic 2 and Sigrok due to computer issues.Saleae complains, on my x86 Macos computer, that the analyzer couldn't keep up with speeds faster than 16MHz, so the 24MHz advertised may require a specific setup. Stil, 16MHz is more than enough for low end devices and microcontrollers, which is where this is targeted.The pins only have one ground, 8 digital, and one pin labeled clk. I don't know how clk is used within Logic, but the digital channels start with channel 0 on pin 9, channel 1 on pin 10, channel 2 on pin 7, etc. It's a weird pinout. Regardless, the easiest way to think of it is that channel 0 is furthest away from GND, and the pin next the GND is channel 7.The label has mislabeled ground as CND. There is only one ground pin, rather than one pin per channel, but this isn't a fast, low voltage logic analyzer, so it won't practically affect your measurements. As it is, with a 16MHz sampling rate, measureing anything faster than 1MHz in time is going to produce poor timing resolution, and anything faster than 8MHz may lose transitions entirely.I really dislike that it's using a USB mini. At least it comes with a cable, but if you're not switching to USB C, at least move to a USB micro - those are much more common than USB mini connectors.

Fantastic Price to Value Ratio - Great for Microcontroller Projects
This inexpensive 8 channel logic analyzer is invaluable for analyzing and troubleshooting microcontroller projects. The analyzer can track any microcontroller pin or other signal, if its voltage is less than 5V. The unit plugs into your USB port and the heavy lifting analysis work is done in the software that you use. You have two software options: Saleae Logic, a proprietary software meant for Saleae’s own products, and sigrok’s PulseView, an open-source software option. Both software options work similarly and include a very complete list of protocol interpreters. These protocol interpreters can take a string of signals from a pin and interpret it into the protocol you have selected. This is an excellent way to troubleshoot serial, I2C, SPI and similar outputs. The analyzer works with Windows and Linux. The unit comes with 10 Dupont style female to female jumper wires.If you are starting to experiment with microcontrollers, this is a great tool to have. It can often be more helpful than an oscilloscope. The price to value ratio is fantastic.

Good for basic work
There is no link to software, but if you look closely at the photos, you can see they are using Saleae software. The version mentioned in the title says it supports 1.1.15 which is the original version of their software, but it seems to work on the latest 1.2.40. The drivers included in the software also work. Not sure how Saleae feels about this. Putting that aside, the logic analyzer is rated at 24MHz and 8 channels. It started to run, but then popped a warning that the device is not capable of keeping up with that speed, and gives the option of slowing down to 16MHz. That works.So, this is a ridiculously cheap logic analyzer for home hobbyists and students. It is definitely not aimed at anything serious, but can be useful in debugging I2C and serial as well as being a good tool to learn basic digital signals and timing.

Fun project tool
If you know what this is it probably needs no introduction for you. But in short, this tool allows you to observe signals and data being sent along communication wires. It is actually a pretty fun thing to play with in general if you like this sort of stuff. Equal parts it can also help you learn/decipher devices activities, be it to check for nefarious action or purely informational.Haven't had a ton of time to test it further but so far it works
