Great Scott Gadgets
Cynthion is here!
We’re pleased to announce that Cynthion is now available for purchase from our authorized resellers! This FPGA-based hardware platform from Great Scott Gadgets powered by LUNA gateware is your new go-to tool for discovering and exploring the world of USB at a fraction of the cost of commercial USB analyzers. Whether you’re experienced with USB or you’re new and learning about it, Cynthion is a great multipurpose addition to your hardware experimentation toolbox! We’ve also developed custom open-source software tools that work with Cynthion:
Packetry is a fast and intuitive open-source software that allows you to capture and analyze traffic between a host and Low-, Full-, or High-Speed USB devices.
Moondancer is a Facedancer backend that enables you to reverse engineer USB devices and even create your own!
Cynthion comes in a beautiful and protective milled aluminum enclosure so that despite its small size (it fits in the palm of your hand) it has a solid feel and a nice weight. It is also currently available for sale without an enclosure at a lower cost. We’ve offered this option to make Cynthion as financially accessible as possible for hobbyists, students, and small teams.
