The ongoing digital transformation process across all industrial sectors involves doing away with conventional processes and embracing interconnectivity, digitalization, and streamlined data management. Although conventional digital signal processors (DSPs) continue …
Signal processing has come a long way from the days when early computers used processors consisting of bit-slice chips. Now, in the 21st century, the widespread use of integrated circuits …
What is Zynq? When it comes to electronics, developers can take several different approaches to accomplish their goals. Two approaches that developers must carefully consider to construct a computer or …
Mixed‑signal validation often starts with more tools than necessary. An oscilloscope for analog signals, a logic analyzer for digital buses, and a separate signal generator just to get known inputs …
This Mandelbrot set renderer was created by Conrad, who shared the project on GitHub (username conradSZY05). Built for the Digilent Basys 3, the design uses VHDL and Xilinx Vivado to …
Debugging modern embedded systems often requires piecing together information from multiple tools to understand both analog and digital behavior. In a recent Digilent webinar, we took a closer look at …
The Question A Digilent forum user working on a vintage computing project needed to troubleshoot hardware built around a 6502 CPU. Their goal was to extract the CPU’s address and …
