Adding More Channels in WaveForms Let’s assume you have an Analog Discovery 2 and love it, but your setup needs more than two oscilloscope channels and the more powerful ADP3450 …
In 2021, we brought forward the idea of Embedded Measurement, the name we gave to describe the current convergence of benchtop instruments with the flexibility and agility of embedded systems …
Portable Prototyping If you’re a student enrolled in a course that asks you to use an Analog Discovery 2 to continue projects at home, then this scenario hits home: You …
The First Expansion to the Zmod Family In early 2020, Digilent released the Eclypse Z7 development board, which provided two SYZYGY-compatible connection ports. SYZYGY is a relatively new interface standard …
The Logic Analyzer instrument in WaveForms can be used to easily decode Manchester encoding signals. The following guide presents what Manchester encoding is, what are its advantages over unencoded digital …
Though oscilloscopes are most known for viewing and diagnosing analog signals, there are some cases where critical characteristics of digital signals can only be viewed on an oscilloscope. When designing …
When looking at the oscilloscope feature of a multi-instrument device or when comparing two benchtop oscilloscopes, the first specifications that we look at are the bandwidth and sample rate. While these …
Have you recently acquired a bunch of data and are trying to figure out what to do with it? Using the Analog Discovery Pro 3450‘s (or ADP3250’s, for that matter) …
Raspberry Pi 4 is Adafruit’s popular tiny desktop computer. At only $35, it’s widely considered the standard in the Maker community. Our own Digital Discovery is quite the value as …
In our last WaveForms update (3.16.3) we introduced the usual plethora of new settings features and bug fixes, but we also added an entirely new instrument, the Curve Tracer Instrument. …
Xilinx’s Vivado Design Suite made its debut in 2012 as an integrated design environment for embedded development. More recently, the semiconductor company released its Vitis platform, which subsequently also includes …
From our first models of Analog Discovery, we’ve come a long way. The new ADP3450 builds on what earlier devices were missing, creating a unique experience for test engineers.
Hardware engineers don’t always stay in the lab. Sometimes they work from home, or they need to test equipment that cannot be brought into the laboratory. In those situations, a …
Building a Raspberry Pi-Based DAQ System for an SAE Baja Challenge Car The SAE Baja Challenge pushes engineering students far beyond the classroom. Teams are tasked with designing, building, and racing a …
The idea of “remote lab access” comes up a lot, but it can still feel a little abstract in practice. After dealing with the usual back-and-forth around lab access, the …
I’m not an engineer. But this will be my third time attending the ASEE Annual Conference with Digilent, and each year I leave feeling the same way: inspired. My background …
