TraceKit Architecture

Overview

TraceKit follows a modular architecture with clear separation of concerns:

Core Modules

• core/ - Signal data structures and fundamental operations
• loaders/ - File format parsers (WFM, VCD, PCAP, etc.)
• analyzers/ - Signal analysis algorithms
• Digital signal analysis
• Spectral analysis
• Protocol decoders
• Power analysis
• Jitter analysis
• inference/ - Protocol reverse engineering
• reporting/ - Export and report generation
• workflows/ - High-level analysis pipelines

Design Principles

1. Composability - Small, focused modules that work together
2. Standards Compliance - IEEE 181, 1241, 1459, 2414
3. Extensibility - Plugin system for custom analyzers
4. Performance - Optimized for large signals with streaming support

Data Flow

Load Signal → Analyze → Process → Export
     ↓          ↓         ↓         ↓
  Loaders → Analyzers → Filters → Reporters

Module Dependencies
