Has anybody had the courage to cross load firmware? (Since these devices are largely boot loaded from the host PC ![Huh? ???](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/huh.gif)
??).
Their actualy aren't in case of those DDS120/140 where the eeprom holds the firmware. I know those little logic-analyzers where only the PID/VID is stored in a (very smaller) eeprom. For sure, the DDS120 could boot up from host-side firmware injection in the CY RAM. Problem could be, that the acutally firmware does not enumerate after rebooting the 8051 core, so the software will likely fail.
To get around this, the .inf files could be altered to accept the CY standard PID/VID as a valid scope but i guess the software will check for correct (original) PID/VID.
(Edit: This seems to be all known for good, i guess)
Beside this, i had a deeper view in the provided DLL files to access the scope. Extracting the methods is on ease, but the the method-calls are not documented. As i don't have an IDA enviroment, i can't dig any deeper into this.

Comparing the DLLs from DDS120/140 shows that the basic method-names are the same.
For the FX2 i would guess, i just bulk dumps the ADC-data on one controll-point -> IN, adjusts some GPIO to switch the analog-frontend (CD4052 8ch. multiplexer) -> OUT. I would also guess, that the HRA (SOT23-5 AD8065 FET Opamp) are gain-switched regarding to the selected input-amplitude.
http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/AD8065_8066.pdfMainly, nothing more is going on here.

Edit:
Checking TXD0/1, nothin to be seen here on both pins (dead silent).
For the AD8065, one will be used as a SGA (switchable gain amplifier), the second seems to be the buffer stage.
Looking at the pictures DDS120/140, i'd say, the FPGA is only used for the expansion port. Will try a crossflash with DDS140 on my DDS120.
Edit: Crossflash works, drivers get installed, app is starting, BUT it seems that ho valid data is coming in. Despite this, the app is lagging alot. -> Wont work.
