5.2.1 Interfaces

All functionality of the DGI is centered around the implemented interfaces. All interfaces use the same USB protocol, but every interface has its own configuration parameters and handling of communication. For details, refer to the interface-specific sections. Note that not all interfaces are available on all boards implementing the DGI device. The available interfaces can be read through the USB protocol.

NameIdentifierDescription
Timestamp0x00Service interface which appends timestamps to all received events on associated interfaces.
SPI*0x20Communicates directly over SPI in Client mode.
UART

USART*

0x21Communicates directly over UART in Client mode.

Communicates directly over USART in Client mode.

I2C*0x22Communicates directly over I2C in Client mode.
GPIO0x30Monitors and controls the state of GPIO pins.
Power0x40 (data)Receives data and sync events from the attached power measurement co-processors.
Debugger Polling0x50Polling of timestamped samples of the program counter,allowing an insight in the program execution of the device.
