Bus Pirate GUI

24 October, 2009 (20:12) | BusPirate | By: Sean Nelson

The Bus Pirate is “a universal bus interface that talks to most chips from a PC serial terminal, eliminating a ton of early prototyping effort when working with new or unknown chips.” It supports a wide array of bus interfaces like, SPI, I2C, and 1Wire. It was designed by Ian Lesnet, and it’s open source. I got my Bus Pirate, via HackADay.com, from SeeedStudio.com. The latest hardware revision is v3, I have a v2go.

The reason for this post is the last 3 days I’ve been working on a GUI for the Bus Pirate. It’s using Qt4.5 and QextSerialPort. Hopefully when I get somewhere close to Alpha, I’ll compile for all three platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux) and allow others to play with it. If you like to help develop or test the application, contact me. I plan on setting up a new GoogleCode Project for it, or if Ian wants I can host on the Bus Pirate SVN.
