The Beagle USB 5000 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer for USB 3.0 received quite an audience at Computex 2010 in Taipei, Taiwan. Computex is the largest computer exhibition and trade show in Asia, and is the second-largest of its kind in the world! With over 1,700 exhibitors and about 120,000 visitors, we were honored to be a part of Computex this year.

We have visited Taiwan before, but it was our first time exhibiting at the Computex computer show. It was also the first time our Beagle USB 5000 protocol analyzer was showcased in Asia at such a large venue.

The Total Phase booth was located in the International Exhibitor zone and we received a lot of interest in our tools, particularly the Beagle USB 5000 analyzer. That wasn’t surprising considering the wide variety of USB 3.0 products on display at Computex, such as USB 3.0-enabled motherboards, external hard drives, SATA to USB 3.0 docks, hubs, flash sticks, and much more. We look forward to visiting Taiwan again!

From Germany to China and Back

We just finished exhibiting at two major trade shows around the world! Engineers and developers from all over Europe and Asia saw sneak peeks of the new Komodo CAN Interface and the Beagle USB 5000 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer for USB 3.0, as well as demonstrations of our other products.

Our third appearance at the Embedded World Exhibition and Conference in Nuremberg, Germany, kicked off on Tuesday, March 2. With over 16,000 people attending the show and 730 exhibitors, the Embedded World show never ceased to amaze.

We met many engineers working on all kinds of interesting applications. Germany is well-known for their large industrial automation and automotive markets, and we were happy to see that our new Komodo CAN interface appealed to many engineers and developers at the show.


The International IC-China Conference & Exhibition in Shenzhen, China was a great show and was held during the same week as Embedded World. While this wasn’t our first visit to China, it was our first time exhibiting at a tradeshow there.

Interest was high for our entire product line and we had a great time introducing our tools and talking to engineers at the show. There were approximately 16,000 attendees and over 150 exhibiting companies, which made for a busy and productive show. We look forward to our next show in China.

Say Hello to Komodo CAN Duo - Total Phase’s New CAN Interface

Everybody at Total Phase is excited to announce our newest product, and first ever CAN tool, the Komodo CAN Duo Interface!

We received a lot of requests for a CAN tool and we are happy to announce this new and robust line of tools for CAN developers.  We believe the Komodo CAN Duo Interface is going to help engineers save time by providing reliable visibility into any CAN system.

A Complete CAN Solution

When we put this tool together, we wanted it to be a complete solution for CAN users. The Komodo CAN Duo Interface is a two-channel USB-to-CAN adapter that can actively transmit data, non-intrusive monitor CAN buses, and bridge two CAN buses by instantly relaying data between them.

We wanted to make sure that the Komodo interface is a robust and reliable tool in the field.  While other vendors charge extra for isolation, the Komodo CAN Duo interface includes independent galvanic isolation for each of its two CAN channels.

When you add it all up, the Komodo CAN Duo Interface is an all-in-one tool that offers great value.  Comparable CAN solutions can be considerably more expensive.

Not only is the Komodo CAN Duo Interface affordable, it is also small and durable, making it a solution that is easily integrated into any variety of applications, including automotive,military, industrial, medical, and more.

And like all Total Phase products, the Komodo CAN Duo Interface includes support for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, free software and API, lifetime support, and upgrades at no additional cost.

Special Live Preview

We will be at Embedded World in Nuremberg, Germany and IIC Shenzhen in Shenzhen, China this week, showing a special sneak peek of the Komodo CAN Duo interface.  If you are at the shows, please stop by to see a live demo.

World’s Most Affordable SuperSpeed Analyzer Previewed at CES Las Vegas

Prototype analyzer for SuperSpeed USB

Prototype analyzer for SuperSpeed USB

Total Phase recently exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.  CES is one of the largest consumer electronic shows in the world, and this year we were excited to be a part of the USB Technology Zone, where the latest devices in SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) technology were showcased.

SuperSpeed USB

What is SuperSpeed USB, you ask?  This third generation of the USB spec is up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0, with a max transfer speed of 5 Gbps (approx. 450 MB/s of real data transfer after overhead).

SuperSpeed USB expansion cards, flash drives, host controllers, and more are already available on the market.

For us, CES was a great opportunity to talk to our global customers and partners and give them a sneak preview of our upcoming USB 3.0 analyzer, the Beagle USB 5000 SuperSpeed Protocol Analyzer.  People seemed extremely excited about the prototype analyzer’s features: real-time capabilities, class-level decoding, user-friendly GUI, cross-platform support, free software downloads and upgrades, and more.  All of this (and more) will be available Q2 of 2010 for the industry’s lowest price of less than $10K. Keep an eye out for more details to come!
