The Analog Discovery Pro introduces an entirely new way to interact with a portable device of its kind, Linux Mode.
It seems as if every time we’re approaching the boundaries of technology’s influence on our culture, a new development, trend, or exciting innovation pushes those boundaries even further, launching even …
Will Wadkins, Digilent’s FPGA Product Manager, discusses how Digilent is beginning to enter the software-defined radio space with the introduction of the USRP B205mini-i.
Some time ago, we had an old NES controller floating around the office. It wasn’t your run-of-the-mill NES controller, though – it had been “tampered” with. Instead of the normal …
One lucky user was tasked to see what the Genesys ZU was capable of.
Pablo at ControlPaths.com has written a guide for creating a custom AXI IP using the Genesys ZU, but any Zynq MPSoC will do. We’re partial to the Genesys ZU though. …
The Arty S7, our FPGA development board using the cost efficient Xilinx Spartan 7, gives users plenty of I/O and expansion options to work with. Since its inception in 2018, …
Pablo from controlpaths.com lent his expertise in Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and applied it to our Eclypse Z7 board (using the SYZYGY Zmod ADC and DAC, and Xilinx’s xFFT IP). …
If you’re stuck in the unfamiliar situation of attempting to complete the rest of this semester’s EE courses online (rather than in your lab), read on. We want to make …
In December of last year, Stanford’s Neerav Dixit, John Pauly, and Grieg Scott published a paper on thermo-acoustic ultrasound (TAUS) for noninvasive temperature monitoring. So why are we excited about …
In the world of artificial intelligence (AI), the recognition of handwritten digits proves that you got your neurons right and in working condition. This application of AI is already quite …
A discussion of how ground potential differences can (and will) effect oscilloscope measurements.
The Best SDR Projects: From Amateur Radio to Satellite Tracking Software defined radio (SDR) is a digital window into signals you normally can’t see. Aircraft, ships, satellites, utility meters, amateur …
Most wireless tools are built for one job. A dedicated spectrum analyzer monitors frequencies. A GPS receiver locks onto satellites. A protocol tester checks a specific wireless standard. Each device …
How SDR Works: Understanding the Mechanics of the SDR Signal Chain Software-defined radio (SDR) has transformed the way engineers, researchers, and students interact with wireless systems. Instead of relying on …
What Is SDR (Software Defined Radio)? Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a radio communication system that performs many traditional radio functions in software instead of dedicated hardware circuits. Tasks such …
