Logic Probe Recommendations

I'm after a commerical handheld logic probe with fine point for picaxe smd circuit testing. I would prefer one with some sort of built in serial analyser, is there such a thing? And an lcd screen to display the waveform/logic data.

Any recommendations from the Picaxe collective please. :confused:

Ok, it's not handheld and no LCD display (so it's not really what you're looking for), but I use the 8 channel salae logic analyser and find it invaluable (as many forum users do). It's very fast (24MHz), and really helps debugging. It can decode serial, SPI, I2C, and a couple of other protocols.

The probes are suitable for SMD, too.

I should have mentioned I already have the salea analyser :)

I want something that reacts instantly when touched on the pins and trys to decode the signal.

Good choice :D

I agree something like that would be nice - although that sort of thing tends to be very expensve. Maybe someone should design a PICAXE version?

Something like this (more details) would be ideal, although from what I can tell that's just a design rather than a production product.
