-Despite the "DUmper" part of the name, this tool is **NOT** meant to produce 1:1 binary dumps of the content of a PAL device, it is meant as an aid to the reversing procedure of an unknown PAL, automatizing a good part of the black box analisys.

It will produce a JSON file containing every recorded state change of the PAL (outputs states at the beginning, applied inputs and output states at the end), that can then be converted into an espresso truth table or manipulated for further analisys.

## The Analyzer

-The analyzer lets the user select which type of PAL is inserted in the board's ZIF socket, whether the IO pins that are set as outputs are known (which saves some time), what is the board's serial interface, and where to save the output table.
