Thanks for telling me about this project.

But, to be honnest, I don’t really understand what this project is 
about. I never hearded about the SSI32 protocol (while I know the SPI 
protocol)…

Anyway, as far as I know, my motherboard has no SPI bus… I guess I might 
buy or design an USB-SPI interface, but I wonder if designing an USB 
watchdog wouldn’t be easier…

Anyway, I would still be interested to understand a little more what 
that project is about; it might at least be a good source for 
inspiration…


Cheers,
