modrobert writes: "I have released PS3 Glitch Finder which is a VHDL design for Spartan-3 (eg. xc3s400) FPGAs with the purpose of easily creating a custom pulse which can be used to glitch various hardware, like the PS3 memory bus. The design should work with most of the Spartan-3 development boards out there (eg. Spartan-3 Starter Kit, Basys, Nexys, Discovery or similar). This small project has been a lot of fun and reminds me of the happy days of phreaking using blue box, the art of finding that working 'break' (tone combo) for an unsuspecting toll-free switch board in a country far away somewhere. Now we can enjoy finding the perfect glitch for PS3 instead. ;) More info regarding the project can be found in the wiki, and if you have suggestions or just want to comment try this forum topic. The VHDL source code is released under GPL v2.
