Saelig, a Rochester, NY-based North American distributor of instrumentation and electronic control equipment, has announced the latest addition to its portfolio. The LOG Storm, developed by European manufacturer Byte Paradigm, is a digital data logger aimed for analyzing and troubleshooting of digital system buses and data lines, at high-speed.

The high-speed data logger will be showcased at the 2012 Design West Conference and Exhibition, which will be held at the McEnery Convention Centerin San Jose from 27-29 March.
The LOG Storm data logger offers a memory buffer of 8 MSample ensuring the sampling of up to 20 bits of data at 100 MHz. Featuring data filtering capability and enabling data storage and transfer to the PC using a USB 2.0 connection, the LOG Storm can be used continuously for extended period of time. The LOG Storm's data storage qualification minimizes the total amount of bandwidth required by the data logger and helps prevent overflow conditions by saving memory resources. The high-capacity, high-speed and easy-to-deploy LOG Storm data logger also offers a high sampling rate of up to 100 MHz to generate gigabytes of information instantaneously.
The LOG Storm functions as a dedicated software/hardware combination that enables design engineers to gather high-speed digital bus information for several hours or days at a stretch. This is the advantage of the LOG Storm over logic analyzers which cannot provide sufficient amount of relevant data required for digital system debugging.
The applications of the LOG Storm include uninterrupted, filtered data packet header evaluation; bus monitoring over extended periods; SPI message monitoring of certain slave select lines; in-lab development;IP evaluation and after-installation servicing. The LOG Storm Studio software is available with the LOG Storm data logging device.
