I2C Analysis Application for Promira – TP601110
Monitor I2C up to 5 MHz with a Promira
This application turns a Promira Serial Platform into a passive I2C bus monitor. It watches the bus without driving it and decodes packets and error codes live, with timing down to the bit.
It is a licence loaded onto a Promira you already have; there is no extra hardware. The capture streams to the PC over the Promira’s USB 2.0 or Gigabit Ethernet link. Total Phase released the new I2C and SPI analysis applications in 2025.
Highlights
- Passive I2C monitoring up to 5 MHz at 3.3 V
