// modern tooling
Faster at every phase, from proof of concept to production
Hardware development today is cross-platform, scripted, and iterated fast. Pulsar is a modern tool built for those workflows: one vendor-agnostic adapter and one API that accelerate every phase, reach the whole system, and never change as the project matures.
// 01
Proof of concept
Evaluate any sensor or device from any vendor.
// 02
Bring-up
Exercise your hardware at the system level.
// 03
HIL & validation
Make it part of your CI/CD and release testing.
// 04
Factory
Provision and test every unit on the line.

What sets it apart
-
One tool, bench to production
Start hands-on in Mission Control the day it arrives. The same operations you click through become the automation behind your HIL rigs and production programming. One platform, bench to factory floor.
-
Debug the whole system, not one bus at a time
Run every bus at once, each on its own dedicated pins, in a single session. Featuring large 16 KB max transfer sizes and a USB HS 480 Mbps link to the host PC.
-
Powers and level-matches your DUT
Programmable 1.2 to 3.3 V downstream power, matched to your logic levels. No external level shifters needed.
-
Start before the silicon arrives
Pulsar runs as Controller or Target, standing in for a part that is still in the pipeline, so driver work starts ahead of the hardware.
-
Built to last
CNC-machined aluminum, five RGB status LEDs, mounting holes, fanless and silent. Made for real work.
-
Truly cross-platform
Mission Control and the Python, C, C++ and C# SDKs run on Windows, macOS, Linux, and even in a web browser.
$349 All of it in one machined-aluminum adapter, with Mission Control and the SDKs. Buy Pulsar now
// multi-protocol
One tool. Every protocol.
Run I2C, SPI, UART, RS-485, 1-Wire, and CAN-FD simultaneously, on dedicated pins, with a bank of GPIO for everything else.
$349 Every bus included. No per-protocol licenses. Buy Pulsar now
