Why Engineers Choose the ZeroPlus Protokollsimulatorplatine Typ B
Protocol Validation
Development Efficiency
Educational Training
Der Protokollsimulatorplatine B simuliert Datenpakete mit sechzig verschiedenen Protokollen (siehe Beschreibung unten).
Die Karte kann ein einzelnes Paket senden, wobei die Daten für jedes Paket von einem digitalen Eingang der Karte bestimmt werden. Alternativ kann die Karte so konfiguriert werden, dass sie einen kontinuierlichen Paketstrom sendet, wobei jedes Paket dieselben Daten enthält.
Die Auswahl des Protokolls erfolgt über einen DIP-Schalter.

Questions and Answers
-
Is This Suitable for Educational Use and Training?
Yes. It's a good tool for teaching digital communication protocols and logic analyser use. It gives students consistent, repeatable protocol signals without complex hardware.
-
What Documentation Comes with the Protocol Simulator Board B?
Zeroplus publishes a user guide for the board covering protocol selection with the SW4 DIP switches, the mode and power switches, and a pin layout diagram.
-
Can I Modify Packet Content in the Continuous Stream Mode?
Zeroplus doesn't describe any way to edit packet content on the board. Its user guide covers selecting the protocol with the SW4 switches, choosing continuous or single transmission with SW1, and triggering a single transmission with the SW3 key.
-
How Does This Compare to Software-based Protocol Simulators?
A hardware simulator like the Protocol Simulator Board B gives your logic analyser a real signal to capture, which software simulators can't, so you test the whole capture path, probes included. Zeroplus doesn't publish rise/fall time or impedance figures for the board.
-
Are Any Additional Protocols Supported Beyond the Protocol Simulator Board B?
Yes. Zeroplus offers the Protocol Simulator Board A, which supports a different set of 46 protocols. The two boards complement each other across different protocol families. Board A protocols include:
- 1-WIRE
- 3-WIRE
- 7-SEGMENT LED
- AC97
- ARITHMETICAL LOGIC
- CCIR656
- DIGITAL LOGIC
- DMX512
- DSA Interface
- FlexRay2.1A
- HDQ
- IRDA
- I2C
- I2S
- JK FLIP-FLOP
- JTAG2.0
- LCD12864
- LPC-SERIRQ
- LCD1602
- LIN 2.1
- Low Pin Count
- MCU-51 DECODE
- ModBus
- MANCHESTER
- MICROWIRE
- MII
- MILLER
- NEC PD6122
- PCM
- PECI
- PM BUS1.1
- PSB Interface
- PS/2
- SLE4442
- SM BUS2.0
- ST7669
- ST BUS
- SD2.0/SDIO
- S/PDIF
- SPI
- SSI Interface
- UART(RS-232C/422/485)
- UP COUNTER
- USB1.1
- CAN 2.0B
- DIGRF
Both boards are the same size (7×9.7×2.5cm) and work the same way, but cover different protocol sets.
-
What Protocols Does the Protocol Simulator Board B Support?
The board supports 55 protocols, including I2C and SPI EEPROM variants, ISO7816 UART, USB 2.0 and many industrial and embedded standards such as PROFIBUS, MVB, HART, KNX and DALI. See the user guide for the full list.
-
How Do I Select Different Protocols on the Simulator Board?
Use the SW4 DIP switch array on the board. Each protocol has its own combination of the 8 SW4 switches. Set them to the pattern given for that protocol in the user guide.
-
What's the Difference Between Single Packet and Continuous Stream Modes?
Single packet mode sends one segment of signal each time you press the SW3 key. Continuous stream mode sends the signal continuously. Single mode suits trigger testing, whilst continuous mode suits long-term protocol analysis and decoder validation.
-
How Do I Connect the Simulator Board to My Logic Analyser?
Connect the protocol output pins to your logic analyser's input channels using probe leads. Ensure proper ground connections between the board and logic analyser. The board has a labelled pin header with GND pins and a 10 MHz clock output.
-
Can This Simulator Board Work with non-Zeroplus Logic Analysers?
Zeroplus doesn't publish the output logic levels of the Protocol Simulator Board B, so check them against your analyser's input thresholds before use.
-
What Are the Power Supply Requirements of the Board?
Zeroplus doesn't publish the supply voltage or current for the Protocol Simulator Board B. Its user guide shows a power key (SW2) and a power LED. Check the board and its documentation before connecting a supply.
