We highly encourage everyone to use our new Python package which is packed with features. This library is still supported, but is not recommended for new design.
The following script can be used to repeat SPI transactions captured and exported from Saleae Logic. After the capture is completed, export the SPI analyzer results as a csv file. You can follow this guide to export the file. The exported data should be in HEX-- Note that the base/radix of the exported data will match the current setting for display in the software.
Simply modify the parameters in lines 9-17 in the script below and then everything is ready to play back the file from the Binho Multi-Protocol USB Host Adapter.
For easy testing, here's an example export file from Saleae Logic that works with this script:
