BF7264 Pro Protocol Analyzer
The BF7264 – Acute Pro Protocol Analyzer (BusFinder Protocol Analyzer) is a high-performance diagnostic tool designed for engineers working with complex embedded systems and high-speed serial interfaces. It features real-time data display and post-capture waveform analysis, providing robust insight into signal integrity and protocol behavior. With support for 64-channel logic analysis and a generous 32Gb total memory capacity, the BF7264 allows for extended protocol recording and deep system visibility.
Its advanced triggering capabilities enable targeted captures based on commands or data patterns, while its protocol monitoring mode works like a dash camera—ideal for continuous long-term surveillance over days or even months. The analyzer includes different active probes optimized for specific protocols, ensuring accurate and reliable connections during testing. Supported protocols include eDP 1.4a, eMMC 5.1, MIPI D-PHY 1.2, NAND Flash, SD 3.0 (SDIO 3.0), SD 4.1 (UHS-II), SGMII, and UFS 2.1.
Engineered for flexibility and precision, the BF7264 is an essential tool for protocol compliance validation, system debugging, and embedded system development.
Protocol Analyzer is a PC-based tool with a USB 3.0 interface, making it professional, reliable, and cost-effective. It acts as both a Protocol Logger and a Protocol Monitor, offering versatility for various applications.

Long Time Record: Transitional Storage VS Compressed Storage
For signal capture and analysis, usually require to record the signal for a long time. If the data is stored in a compressed way, it will cause your software to lag or even stop functioning when decompressing the data after it is sent back to the computer. Because PC memory size might insufficient for decompressed data size. To satisfy the requirement of smooth software operation and long-term recording without missing any data, the storage method adopted by the Acute analyzer is transitional storage rather than compression. After returning to the PC software, it doesn”t need to do the decompression. The decoded results can be displayed while the analysis is finished.
