Digilent’s WaveForms software includes a small built-in FPGA utility, which is used to configure (program) the FPGA on supported Digilent boards directly from within WaveForms. If you’ve been around for …
Averaging several single-point measurements you place with oscilloscope cursors is a practical way to get a stable “representative” value of a signal at specific times or levels. WaveForms doesn’t (currently) …
We’re excited to relaunch DASYLab, a powerful software tool for data acquisition and analysis with new rent-to-own licensing options. DASYLab provides a simple graphical dataflow-oriented approach to acquiring and processing …
Digilent recently announced the release of two new members of the Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series, the ADP5470 and ADP5490, which are both four-channel mixed-signal oscilloscopes offering substantially higher bandwidths …
Let’s talk about clocking. It’s crucial to the functionality of FPGA boards and digital design in general, as all synchronous logic depends on clocks. In this article, we’ll define some …
Digilent recently released updated versions of the WebDAQ 316, 504, and 904. These devices are internet-enabled dataloggers, capable of logging data from a variety of sensors like thermocouples, IEPE accelerometers, …
Ever find yourself in the situation where you’re asking yourself “I have my device plugged in, so why isn’t it working?”. A common issue is the USB cable – the …
We recently published a whitepaper “Precision Debugging with the Analog Discovery Pro (ADP2230)”. This whitepaper was originally going to be using the Analog Discovery 3, however, as can be seen …
In the spirit of the holidays, this is some plain-old fun. We’ve talked about video games implemented in FPGAs before – https://digilent.com/blog/?s=game – but what about the other way around? …
This blog post goes over one of several new features we’re announcing as part of the WaveForms 3.21 release. You might already be familiar with the Measurements view in WaveForms’ …
This blog post goes over one of several new features we’re announcing as part of the WaveForms 3.21 release. New Feature: Scope to Digital We’re introducing the “Scope to …
We recently revamped a tutorial on the Digilent Reference site which details how to set up an LWIP echo server for Zynq-7000 boards: Getting Started with Zynq Servers. This post is …
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 …
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 …
Hello readers, Oscar Fonseca here, product manager at Emerson, working closely with our NI and Digilent academic customers. In this blog, I’m going to compare the NI ELVIS III and the Digilent Analog Discovery Studio Max (ADS Max). As someone who …
