NewAE Technology ChipWhisperer-Lite Level 2 Starter Kit

NewAE Technology ChipWhisperer-Lite Level 2 Starter Kit (NAE-SCAPACK-L2) offers an expanded set of tools needed to conduct side-channel power analysis and evaluate glitch and fault injection vulnerabilities. The Level 2 Starter Kit is based on the ChipWhisperer-Lite (CW1173), an open-source toolchain for embedded security research.

The ChipWhisperer-Lite integrates hardware for performing side-channel power analysis measurement, device programming, glitching, and serial communications into a single Capture Board. The ChipWhisperer-Lite can also act as a programmer for XMEGA (PDI) and STM32Fx (serial bootloader) devices. 

The Level 2 Starter Kit includes only the Capture portion of the ChipWhisperer-Lite board. The included UFO Baseboard (CW308) acts as a Carrier for the Target Boards, which feature pre-mounted 8-bit (XMEGA) and 32-bit (STM32 Arm) microcontrollers. The UFO Board supports a variety of additional targets such as FPGAs and MCUs with advanced features such as hardware cryptography. The Starter Kit also includes an unpopulated Target Board and a Blank Prototyping Board, allowing developers to build custom Target Boards for new devices. A Differential Probe, Low Noise Amplifier, and H-Field Probe allow the ChipWhisperer-Lite Capture board to easily interface with, and attack, separate boards and devices. The separate Probe Power Supply is isolated to break ground loops that may be present when powering the probe from the front-panel USB of an oscilloscope. An Advanced Breakout Board is also included, allowing use on targets which don't have 3.3V I/O levels, or if additional breakout is desired. All of the hardware and software in the ChipWhisperer toolchain is open-source, encouraging modification and development from users.
