Highlights

DS2201A Inspector Acquisition and Signal Processing helps security teams efficiently capture, prepare, and manage the measurement data required for reliable side-channel analysis.

Inspector brings acquisition, hardware interaction, signal processing, and trace management into a structured workflow. Users can collect power and electromagnetic measurements, prepare traces for subsequent analysis, and efficiently manage large datasets. Flexible acquisition options and trace-processing capabilities help teams establish consistent datasets before moving into leakage assessment and advanced cryptographic analysis.

  • Control and streamline side-channel data acquisition across supported measurement hardware and test setups.
  • Acquire high-quality power and electromagnetic measurements from security-critical embedded devices.
  • Prepare raw measurement traces for analysis using editing operations such as trimming, padding, reversing, and negating.
  • Manage large trace datasets efficiently with capabilities for exporting, splitting, mixing, sorting, and transposing data.
  • Assess and recover measurement traces to improve data quality before advanced analysis.
  • Support multiple acquisition workflows, including oscilloscope, simulation, XY, and legacy acquisition environments.
  • Create consistent, analysis-ready datasets that provide a reliable foundation for leakage assessment and cryptographic analysis.
  • Reduce repetitive data preparation tasks through an integrated acquisition and signal-processing workflow.
  • Support both power and electromagnetic side-channel analysis within a common software environment.
  • Build a scalable foundation for advanced Inspector analysis, enabling teams to progress from signal acquisition into deeper statistical and cryptographic evaluation.
