Thank you for the details on this device.<br>

The Saleae is very good, and has a reputation for its software. Although<br>
the software is a free download, it is paid for with the purchase of the<br>
analyser hardware.<br>
<br>
It is extremely cheeky of the Chinese to reverse engineer the analyser<br>
hardware (or design something compatible) and to sell this as "Saleae",<br>
while expecting you to use the software from Saleae. There is mentioning<br>
of this on Salaea's website. It is up to you whether you want to<br>
actively participate in this scam.<br>
<br>
There are no issues with using this thing as an FPGA programmer of<br>
course, when those companies sell a chip, they've already been paid for<br>
its programming software that is included in the devloper software.<br>
